فَإِذَا تَوَضَّأَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ أَلْقَتْ قِنَاعَهَا مِنْ مَوْضِعِ مَسْحِ رَأْسِهَا فِي صَلَاةِ الْغَدَاةِ وَ الْمَغْرِبِ وَ تَمْسَحُ عَلَيْهِ وَ يُجْزِيهَا فِي سَائِرِ الصَّلَوَاتِ أَنْ تُدْخِلَ إِصْبَعَهَا فَتَمْسَحَ عَلَى رَأْسِهَا مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ تُلْقِيَ قِنَاعَهَا When the woman performs Wud’u, she should take off her scarf from place of wiping her head, in the morning Salat and Al Maghrib, and she should wipe upon it, and it would suffice her is rest of the Salats to insert her fingers, so she wipes upon her head from without taking off her scarf.

وَ لَا بَأْسَ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ الرَّجُلُ بِوُضُوءٍ وَاحِدٍ صَلَوَاتِ اللَّيْلِ وَ النَّهَارِ كُلَّهَا مَا لَمْ يُحْدِثْ‏. And there is no problem with the man praying Salats with one Wud’u, night and day, all of them for as long as he does not break Wud’u’’.

[1] The teeth brushing عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ سَهْلٍ وَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ جَمِيعاً عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ الْقَدَّاحِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ رَكْعَتَانِ بِالسِّوَاكِ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ سَبْعِينَ رَكْعَةً بِغَيْرِ سِوَاكٍ Ali Bin Muhammad, from Sahl and Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, altogether from Ja’far Bin Muhammad Al Ashary, from Abdullah Bin Maymoun Al Qaddah, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah -asws having said: ‘Two Cycles (of Salaat ) with brushing the teeth is superior to seventy (70) Rak’at (of Salaat ) without brushing the teeth’.

عَلِيٌّ بِإِسْنَادِهِ قَالَ أَدْنَى السِّوَاكِ أَنْ تَدْلُكَ بِإِصْبَعِكَ . Ali, by his chain, He -asws said, ‘The lowest of the brushing of the teeth is that you rub with your finger’.

[2] Use Very Little Water in Wuzu: قَالَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ مُوسَى بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ع‏- لِلْغُسْلِ صَاعٌ مِنْ مَاءٍ وَ لِلْوُضُوءِ مُدٌّ مِنْ مَاءٍ وَ صَاعُ النَّبِيِّ ص خَمْسَةُ أَمْدَادٍ وَ الْمُدُّ وَزْنُ مِائَتَيْنِ وَ ثَمَانِينَ دِرْهَماً وَ الدِّرْهَمُ سِتَّةُ دَوَانِيقَ وَ الدَّانِقُ وَزْنُ سِتِّ حَبَّاتٍ وَ الْحَبَّةُ وَزْنُ حَبَّتَيْنِ مِنْ شَعِيرٍ مِنْ أَوْسَاطِ الْحَبِّ لَا مِنْ صِغَارِهِ وَ لَا مِنْ كِبَارِهِ‏.

وَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص‏ الْوُضُوءُ مُدٌّ وَ الْغُسْلُ صَاعٌ‏ وَ سَيَأْتِي أَقْوَامٌ‏ بَعْدِي يَسْتَقِلُّونَ ذَلِكَ‏ [3] فَأُولَئِكَ عَلَى خِلَافِ سُنَّتِي وَ الثَّابِتُ عَلَى سُنَّتِي مَعِي فِي حَظِيرَةِ الْقُدْسِ. It is referred from Imam Abul Hassan Musa bin Jafar -asws (our 7 th Imam) that one ‘mud’ (which is 750ml) of water is sufficient for performing ablutions.
