8ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ كَتَبْتُ إِلَى أَبِي الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) أَنَّا نُحْرِمُ مِنْ طَرِيقِ الْبَصْرَةِ وَلَسْنَا نَعْرِفُ حَدَّ عَرْضِ الْعَقِيقِ فَكَتَبَ أَحْرِمْ مِنْ وَجْرَةَ.

8. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Musa ibn Ja’far from Yunus from ‘Abd al-Rahman who has said the following: “I once wrote to abu al-Hassan , ‘We want to assume the state of Ihram on the road from Basrah, and we do not know the limits of al-‘Aqiq. He (the Imam) wrote to me, ‘Assume the state of Ihram from Wajrah (name of a place).”’
