8ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ مُخَارِقٍ أَبِي جُنَادَةَ السَّلُولِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ الله (صلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) مَنْ صَامَ شَعْبَانَ كَانَ لَهُ طُهْراً مِنْ كُلِّ زَلَّةٍ وَوَصْمَةٍ وَبَادِرَةٍ قَالَ أَبُو حَمْزَةَ قُلْتُ لأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) مَا الْوَصْمَةُ قَالَ الْيَمِينُ فِي الْمَعْصِيَةِ وَالنَّذْرُ فِي الْمَعْصِيَةِ قُلْتُ فَمَا الْبَادِرَةُ قَالَ الْيَمِينُ عِنْدَ الْغَضَبِ وَالتَّوْبَةُ مِنْهَا النَّدَمُ.

8. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid, from Muhammad ibn Ali from al-Husayn ibn Mukhariq abu Junadah al-Siluwliy from abu Hamzah who has said the following: “Abu Ja’far , has narrated from his father who has narrated this Hadith. ’The Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has said, “If one fasts during the month of Sha’ban, it will be a cleansing for him, from all zallah (a slip), wasmah and badirah.’” I (abu Hamzah) then asked, ‘What is wasmah?’ He replied, ‘It is swearing and a vow for unlawful cause.’ I asked, ‘What is badirah?’ He replied, ‘It is swearing when one is angry; repenting for it is regretting.’”
