إدريس بن عبد الله

And whatever is narrated from Idris ibn Abdullah Al-Qummi, I have narrated it from my father - may Allah (swt) have mercy on him - from Saʿd ibn Abdullah, from Muhammad ibn Al-Husayn ibn Abi Al-Khaṭṭab, from Jafar ibn Bashir, from Hammad ibn Uthman, from Idris ibn Abdullah ibn Saʿd Al-Ashari Al-Qummi.

Hadith.4721 - Idris ibn Abdullah Al-Qummi asked Abu Abdullah (as) about a newborn who is born and dies on the seventh day. Should the Aqiqah be performed for him? Imam (as) replied: "If he dies before noon, the Aqiqah is not performed for him. But if he dies after noon, the Aqiqah should be performed for him."

“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about a man who performs Salah (prayer) and a woman is in his view, standing on furnishing on his side. He (the Imam) said, ‘If she is sitting, it is not harmful, but if she is performing Salah (prayer), then it is not acceptable.’”

“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of a child who dies on the seventh day: if ‘Aqiqah is still necessary. He (the Imam) said, ‘If he dies before al-Zuhr ‘Aqiqah is not required; but if he dies after al-Zuhr then ‘Aqiqah is required.”’

“The Holy Prophet has said, ‘O Ali, the need (poverty) is Allah’s trust with His creatures. Whoever keeps it secret Allah grants him a reward equal to that for one who prays, but if he reveals it to one who is able to help and does not help he has killed him, not with a sword or spears, but has killed him by breaking his heart.’”

“I asked abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.) about the interpretation of this verse of the Holy Quran. “They will reply, “We did not pray,” (74:43). The Imam (a.s.)said, “Such people will be those who did believe in the Imams about whom Allah, the Most Holy, the Most High, has saaid, “ (The foremost ones) will be the nearest ones to God” (56:11) Have not noticed that people call the one second to the lead in horse racing ‘al-Musalli’ (the praying)? This is what is meant therein. “We did not pray’ means ‘we did not follow the lead’.”

"When al-Husayn (a.s.) was murdered the people wanted to make the horses run over his (al-Husayn’s) body. Fizzah then told Zaynab, 'My lady, there was a shipwreck and Safina came out on an Island face-to-face with a lion. He said to the lion, 'O Abu al-Harith, I am the slave of the Messenger of Allah.' The lion murmured in front of him and showed him the way. There lives a lion in this area allow me to go and inform him of what the people intend to do to al-Husayn (a.s.) tomorrow.' The narrator has said that she went to the lion and said, 'O Abu al-Harith and the lion raised his head and she said, 'Do you know what these people intend to do to Abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.)? They intend to make the horses run over his body.' The narrator has said that the lion walked and placed both of his hands over the body of al-Husayn (a.s.). When the horsemen came they found the lion in that condition and ‘Umar ibn Sa‘d (may Allah condemn him) told them, 'It is mischief. Do not bother and turn back,' thus they turned back.
