(The author of the book narrated) my father - may God be pleased with him - and Ali ibn Abdullah al-Warraq narrated that Sa’d ibn Abdullah quoted on the authority of Ali ibn Al-Husayn al-Khayyat al-Neishaboori, on the authority of Ibrahim Muhammad ibn Abdullah ibn Musa ibn Ja’far, on the authority of Yasir - the servant, on the authority of Abil Hassan Al-Askari (a.s.) [69] , on the authority of his father (a.s.), on the authority of Ali ibn Musa Al-Ridha’ (a.s.) that Al-Ridha’ (a.s.) used to put his clothes on from the right side. Whenever the Imam (a.s.) wanted to put on a new article of clothing, he (a.s.) asked for a bowl of water and recited the Quranic Chapter ‘Al-Qadr ten times, the Chapter ‘Al-Ikhlas ten times and the Chapter ‘Al-Kafirun ten times over it, poured the water on the piece of clothing and said, ‘Whoever does so before putting on a new item of clothing will have no difficulties in his life as long as the threads of it remain.’ The author of this book (a.s.heikh Sadooq) said, “Yasir - the servant lived at the time of Al-Ridha’ (a.s.). It is strange for him to have had narrated the above tradition on the authority of Abil Hassan Al-Askari (a.s.).
