٢ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَحَدِهِمَا (عَلَيْهِما السَّلاَم) أَنَّهُ قَالَ مَنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ هَدْياً وَأَحَبَّ أَنْ يُقَدِّمَ الثَّلاثَةَ الأَيَّامِ فِي أَوَّلِ الْعَشْرِ فَلا بَأْسَ.
2. Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn abu Nasr has narrated from ‘Abd al-Karim ibn ‘Amr from Zurarah who has said the following: “One of the two Imam, (abu Ja’far or abu ‘Abd Allah), ‘Alayhim al-Salam, has said, ‘One who cannot find an offering and likes to fast the three days during the first ten days, it is not an offense for him to do so.”
