5. [5/-] al-Kafi: Ali b. Ibrahim from his father AND Muhammad b. Ismail from al-Fadhl b. Shadhan all together from Hammad b. Isa from Hariz from Zurara who said
I said to Abi Ja’far عليه السلام: will you not inform me how you knew and ruled that the wiping should only be limited to a part of the head and a part of the feet, so he laughed and then said: … then he said: “Allāh does not intend to place upon you [in the religion] any difficulty” (5:6) – and “difficulty” is “discomfort”.

قلت: لابي جعفر عليه السلام الا تخبرني من أين علمت وقلت إن المسح ببعض الرأس وبعض الرجلين؟ فضحك ثم قال … ثم قال: مَا يُرِيدُ اللَّهُ لِيَجْعَلَ عَلَيْكُم (في الدين) مِّنْ حَرَجٍ والحرج الضيق
