The Chapters
of Purification from Sunan Ibn Majah
267 It was
narrated that Safinah said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) used to perform
ablution with a Mudd (of water) and bath with a Sa’.”* (Sahih)

ablution with a Mudd (of water) and bath with a Sa’.” (Sahih)
269 It was
narrated from Jabir that the Messenger of Allah (saw) used to perform ablution
with a Mudd (of water) and bath with a Sa’.” (Sahih)
270 ‘Abdullah
bin Muhammad bin ‘Aqil bin Abu Talib narrated from his father that his
grandfather said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: ‘A Mudd is sufficient for
the ablution and a Sa’ is sufficient for the bath.’ A man said: ‘It is not
sufficient for us.’” He (the narrator) said: “It was sufficient for one who is
better than you and had more hair” meaning the Prophet (saw). (Sahih)
271 It was
narrated that Usamah bin ‘Umair Al-Hudhali said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw)
said: ‘Allah does not accept any prayer without purification and He does not
accept any charity from Ghulul.’”*
*Ghulul refers to withholding goods captured among the
spoils of war, and the meaning includes deceitfully taking what one has no
right to.
272 It was

not accept any prayer without purification, and He does not accept any charity
from Ghulul.’” (Sahih)

believer.’” (Hasan)
278 It was
narrated that ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) said:
‘Adhere to righteousness even though you will not be able to do all acts of
virtue. Know that among the best of your deeds is prayer and that no one
maintains his ablution except a believer.’” (Hasan)
279 It was
narrated that Abu Umamah said, in a Marfu’ Hadith:* “Adhere to righteousness
and it is a blessing if you are able to do so. Know that the best of your deeds
is prayer and that no one maintains his ablution except a believer.” (Da’if)
*That is, a Traceable Hadith attributed to the Prophet
(saw).
280 It was
narrated from Abu Malik Ash’ari that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said:
“Performing ablution properly’* is half of faith, saying Al-Hamdu Lillah fills
the Scale (of good deeds), saying Subhan-Allah and Allahu Akbar fills the
heavens and the earth, prayer is light, Zakat is proof, patience is brightness
and the Qur’an is proof for you or against you. Every person goes out in the
morning to sell his soul, so he either frees it or destroys it.’” (Sahih)
281 It was
narrated that Abu Hurairah said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: ‘When
anyone of you performs ablution and does it well, then he comes to the mosque
for no other purpose than prayer, he does not take one step but Allah will
raise him one degree (in status) thereby, and remove one sin from him thereby,
until he enters the mosque.’” (Sahih)
282 It was narrated
from ‘Abdullah As-Sunabihi that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said: “Whoever
performs ablution and rinses his mouth and nose, his sins will exit through his
mouth and nose. When he washes his face, his sins will exit from his face, even
from beneath his eyelids. When he washes his hands, his sins will exit from his
hands. When he wipes his head, his sin will exit from his head, and even from
his ears. When he washes his feet, his sins will exit from his feet, even from
beneath his toenails. Then his prayer and his walking towards the mosque will
earn extra merit for him.” (Sahih)
283 It was
narrated that ‘Amr bin ‘Abasah said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: ‘When
a person performs ablution and washes his hands, his sins exit through his
hands. When he washes his face, his sins will exit through his face. When he
washes his forearms and wipes his head, his sins will exit through his forearms
and head. When he washes his feet, his sins exit through his feet.’” (Hasan)
284 ‘Abdullah
bin Mas’ud said: “It was said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, how will you recognize
those whom you have not seen of your Ummah?’ He said: ‘From the blazes on their
foreheads and feet, like horses with black and white traces (which make them
distinct from others) which are the traces of ablution.’” (Hasan)

285 Humran the
freed slave of ‘Uthman bin ‘Affan said: “I saw ‘Uthman bin ‘Affan sitting in
Maqa’id.* He called for water and he performed ablution, then he said: ‘I saw
the Messenger of Allah (saw) sitting in this place where I am sitting,
performing ablution as I have done. Then he said: “Whoever performs ablution as
I have done, his previous sins will be forgiven.” And the Messenger of Allah
(saw) said: “And do not be conceited (due to this great virtue).” (Sahih)

not that it would be too difficult for my Ummah (nation), I would have

288 It was
narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) used to pray in
the night (Qiyamul-Lail) two Rak’ah by two, then when he finished he would use
the tooth stick.” (Da’if)
289 It was
narrated from Abu Umamah that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said: “Use the tooth
stick, for the tooth stick purifies the mouth and is pleasing to the Lord.
Jibril never came to me but he advised me to use the tooth stick, until I feared
that it would be made obligatory for me and my Ummah. Were it not that I fear
that it would be too difficult for my Ummah, I would have enjoined it upon
them. And I use the tooth stick until I fear that I may make the front of my
mouth sore.’ (i.e. my gums) (or cause my teeth to fall out due to brushing them
so often).” (Da’if)
290 It was
narrated from Miqdam bin Shuraih bin Hani’ that his father said: “I said to
‘Aishah: ‘Tell me, what was the first thing that the Messenger of Allah (saw)
did when he entered upon you?’ She said: ‘The first thing he would do would be
to use the tooth stick.’” (Sahih)

hairs and trimming the moustache.’” (Sahih)
293 It was
narrated that ‘Aishah said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: ‘Ten things are
connected to the Fitrah: trimming the moustache, letting the beard grow, using

Hushush (waste areas) are visited (by devils), so when anyone of you enters,

between the Jinn and the nakedness of the sons of Adam is that when a person
enters the Kanif,*he should say: Bismillah (in the Name of Allah).’” (Da’if)
*A man-made structure for relieving oneself.
298 It was
narrated that Anas bin Malik said: “Whenever the Messenger of Allah (saw)
entered the toilet, he would say: ‘A’udhu Billahi minal-khubuthi wa’l-khaba’ith
(I seek refuge with Allah from male and female devils).’” (Sahih)
299 It was narrated
from Abu Umamah that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said: “None of you should
fail to say, when he enters his toilet: ‘Allahumma inni a’udhu bika
minar-rijsin-najis, al-khabithil-mukhbith, ash-Shaitanir-rajim (O Allah, I seek
refuge with You from the filthy and impure, the evil one with evil companions,
the accursed Shaitan).’” (Da’if)
Another chain with a slightly different wording from Ibn
Abi Maryam who mentioned similar, but he did not say in his narration:
“Minar-rijsin-najis (From the filthy and impure)” he only said:
“Minal-khabithil-mukhbith, ash-Shaitanir-rajim (From the evil one with evil
companions, the accursed Shaitan)”

narrated that ‘Abdullah bin Mughaffal said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) said:
‘None of you should urinate in his wash area for most of the insinuating
thoughts* come from that.” (Da’if)
Abu ‘Abdullah bin Majah said: (“Abul-Hasan said: ‘I heard
Muhammad bin Yazid**saying:) “Ali bin Muhammad At-Tanafisi said: ‘This
(prohibition) applies to cases where the ground (in the place used for washing)
was soft. But nowadays this does not apply, because the baths you use now are
built of plaster, Saruj*** and tar; so if a person urinates there then pours
water over it, that clears it away, and that is fine.’”
*i.e., doubts about whether the urine has touched him and
made him impure.
**That is Ibn Majah, being a statement from one of the
manuscripts.

from Abu Wa’il, from Hudhaifah, but he did not remember it (correctly). So I
asked Mansur about it, and he narrated it to me from Abu Wa’il, from Hudhaifah,
that the Prophet (saw) came to a dump of some people and urinated standing up.’”
307 It was

(saw) urinated while standing, do not believe him, for I (always) say him
urinating while sitting down.” (Hasan)
308 It was

urinated whilst standing after that.” (Da’if)
309 It was
narrated that Jabir bin ‘Abdullah said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) forbade
us to urinate while standing.” (Da’if)

Ahmad bin ‘Abdur-Rahman Al-Makhzumi say: ‘Sufyan Ath-Thawri said concerning the
Hadith of ‘Aishah – ‘I (always) saw him urinating whilst sitting down’ – a man
knows more about that (about such matters) than she.’ Ahmad bin ‘Abdur-Rahman
said: ‘It was the custom of the Arabs to urinate while standing up. Do you not
see that in the Hadith of ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Hasanah it was said: ‘He sits down
to urinate as a woman does.’”**

us to use three pebbles, and he forbade us to use dung and bones, and he
forbade cleaning oneself with the right hand.” (Hasan)
314 It was narrated
from ‘Abdullah bin Mas’ud: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) went to the toilet and

who went to the Gha’it* to face the Qiblah. He said: ‘Face towards the east or
the west.’”** (Sahih)
*Gha’it refers to defecation, and to the hole in which
one defecates.
**This applied specifically to the people of Al-Madinah
because the Qiblah for them was towards the south.
319 It was
narrated that Ma’qil bin Abu Ma’qil Al-Asadi, who was a Companion of the
Prophet (saw), said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) forbade us from facing
either of the two Qiblah* when defecating or urinating.” (Da’if)

towards it.” As for the words of Ibn ‘Umar, he said: “In the (constructed)
toilet there is no Qiblah so turn in whatever direction you want.”
324 It was
narrated that ‘Aishah said: “Mention was made in the presence of the Messenger
of Allah (saw) of some people who did not like to face towards the Qiblah with

did that it would have become a Sunnah.’” (Da’if)
328 Abu Sa’eed
Al-Himyari narrated that Mu’adh bin Jabal used to narrate something that the
Companions of the Messenger of Allah (saw) had not heard, and he used to keep
quiet about what they had heard. News of this report reached ‘Abdullah bin
‘Amr, and he said: “By Allah, I never heard the Messenger of Allah (saw) say
this, and Mu’adh will put you into difficulty with regard to relieving
yourself.” News of that reached Mu’adh, so he met with him (‘Abdullah). Mu’adh
said: “O ‘Abdullah! Denying a Hadith from the Messenger of Allah is hypocrisy,
and its sin is upon the one who said it (if it is not true). I did indeed hear
the Messenger of Allah (saw) say: ‘Beware of the three things which provoke
curses: Relieving oneself in watering places, in places of shade and in the
middle of the street.’” (Da’if)
329 It was
narrated that Jabir bin ‘Abdullah said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) said:

clean himself, let him use an odd number of stones. Whoever does that has done
well, and whoever does not, there is no harm in it. Whoever uses a toothpick
should spit out (whatever he removes) and whoever removes (the particle of
food) by dislodging it with his tongue should swallow it. Whoever does that has
done well, and whoever does not, there is not harm in it. Whoever goes to the
toilet should conceal himself, and if he cannot find anything except a pile of
sand (behind which to conceal himself), then he should use that, for the
Shaitan plays with the backside of the son of Adam. Whoever does that has done
well, and whoever does not, there is not harm in it.” (Da’if)

report was narrated by ‘Abdul-Malik bin As-Sabbah with a similar chain, with

teeth) by dislodging it with his tongue, let him swallow it.” (Da’if)
339 It was

orders you to come together:’” So they came together and he concealed himself
behind them, and he relieved himself. Then he said to me: ‘Go to them and tell

la sharika lahu, wa ashshadu anna Muhammadan ‘abduhu wa rasuluhu (I bear
witness that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah alone, with no

wind in his sleep, thus invalidating his ablution without realizing it, so he
should perform ablution when he wakes up.

‘May Allah improve you (i.e., your condition) Is it obligatory or Sunnah to
perform ablution for every prayer?’ He said: ‘Did you notice that?’ I said:
‘Yes.’ He said: ‘No (it is not obligatory). If I perform ablution for Morning
prayer I can perform all of the prayers with this ablution, so long as I do not

the urine of a girl should be washed, when the two types of water (urine) are
the same. He said, “That is because the urine of the boy is of water and clay,
but the urine of the girl is of flesh and blood.” Then he said to me: “Did you
understand?” I said: “No.” He said: “When Allah the Most High created Adam, He
created Eve (Hawwa’) from his short rib, so the boy’s urine is from water and
clay, and the girl’s urine is from flesh and blood.” Then he said to me: “Did
you understand?” I said: “Yes.” He said: “May Allah cause you benefit from this.”

is vast.’ Then the Bedouin turned away, went to a corner of the mosque, spread
his legs and began to urinate. After he had a better understanding, the Bedouin

something that is vast, woe to you!’ Then (the Bedouin) spread his legs and
