1
It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet (saw) said: “When any one of
you wakes from sleep, let him not dip his hand in (the water he used for) his
Wudu' until he had washed it three times, for none of you knows were his hand
spent the night.” (Sahih)

when he was using the Siwak, and the end of the Siwak was on his tongue, and he

It was narrated from Abu Burdah that Abu Musa said: “I came to the Prophet
(saw) when he was using the Siwak and with me were two men of the Ash'aris –
one on my right and the other on my left – who were seeking to be appointed as
officials. I said: 'By the One Who sent you as a Prophet with the truth, they
did not tell me why they wanted to come with me and I did not realize that they
were seeking to be appointed as officials.' And I could see his Siwak beneath
his lip, then it slipped and he said: 'We do not' – or; 'We will never appoint
as an official anyone who seeks that. Rather you should go.'” So he sent him
(Abu Musa) to Yemen, then he sent Mu'adh bin Jabal to go after him – may Allah
be pleased with them. (Sahih)
5
'Abdur-Rahman bin Abu 'Atiq said: “My father told me: 'I heard 'Aishah say,

it not that it would be too difficult for my Ummah, I would have commanded them
to use the Siwak at (the time of) every Salah.” (Sahih)

(Sahih)

to defecate or urinate, let him not face toward the Qiblah, nor turn his back
towards it.” (Sahih)

Allah (saw) urinated while standing up, do not believe him, for he would not
urinate except while squatting.” (Hasan)
30
It was narrated that 'Abdur-Rahman bin Hasanah said: “The Messenger of Allah
(saw) came out to us with a small leather shield in his hand. He put it down,
then he sat behind it and urinated toward it. Some of the people said: 'Look,
he is urinating like a woman.' He heard that and said: 'Do you not know what
happened to the companion of the Children of Israel? If they got any urine on
themselves they would clip that part of their garments off. Their companion
told them not to do that and he was punished in his grave.'” (Da'if)
31
It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) passed by
two graves and said: 'These two are being punished, but they are not being
punished for something that was difficult to avoid. As for this, he used not to
take precautions to avoid (his body or clothes being soiled by) urine, and this
one used to walk around spreading malicious gossip.' Then he called for a fresh
palm-leaf stalk and plit it in two, and placed one piece on each of the two
graves. They said: 'O Messenger of Allah, why did you do that?' He said: 'Perhaps
the torment will be reduced for them as long as this does not dry out.'”
(Sahih)
Mansur contradicted him, he reported it from Mujahid and from Ibn
'Abbas, but he did not mention Tawus in it.

clean himself with his right hand.” And he used to tell them to use three
stones, and he forbade using dung or old bones. (Hasan)
41

(meaning, the Prophet (saw)) even teaches you how to go to the toilet!” He

(Sahih)
42
'Abdur-Rahman bin Al-Aswad (narrated) from his father that he heard 'Abdullah
say: “The Prophet (saw) wanted to defecate, and he told me to bring him three

I picked up a piece of dung and brought them to the Prophet (saw). He took the

permissible.'” (Sahih)

al-mashriq wal-maghrib; Allahumma naqqini min khatayaya kama yunaqqath-thawb
al-abyad min ad-danas; Allahummaghsilni min khatayaya bith-thalji wal-ma'i
wal-barad (O Allah, put a great distance between me and my sins, as great
as the distance You have made between the East and the West; O Allah, cleanse
me of sin as a white garment is cleansed from filth; Wash away my sins with
snow, water, and hail)'.” (Sahih)

al-khataya kama ynaqqath-thawb al-abyad min ad-danas. (O Allah, forgive him

camel stop and went away until he came back and said: 'Do you have water with
you?' I had a water skin with me, so I brought it out and poured it for him. He
washed his hands and face and began to wash his arms, but he was wearing a
Syrian Jubbah that had narrow sleeves, so he brought his arms out beneath the
Jubbah and washed his hands and arms, and wiped his forelock a little and his
turban a little.” - Ibn 'Awn said: “I cannot remember it well – then he wiped
over his Khuffs.” Then he said: 'What do you need?' I said: 'O Messenger of
Allah, I do not need anything.' Then we came and 'Abdur-Rahman bin 'Awf was
leading the people in Salah, and he had led them in one Rak'ah of the Subh

with one hand, three times, he washed his face three times, washed each forearm
three times, and took some of the water and wiped his head. On one occasion
(One of the narrators) Shu'bah, indicated (that he wiped) from his forelock to
the back of his head, then said: 'I do not know whether he brought his hands
back or not. And he washed each foot three times, then he said: 'Whoever would
like to see how the Messenger of Allah (saw) purified himsef, this is how he
purified himself.'” (Sahih)

face three times, then his right hand up to the elbow three times, then his
left likewise. Then he wiped his head once, then he washed his right foot up to
the ankle three times, then the left likewise. Then he stood up and said: 'Pass
me the vessel.' So I passed the vessel containing the remaining water for his
Wudu' to him, and he drank from it standing up. I was surprised and when he noticed

doing what you have seen me doing.' referring to his Wudu' and drinking the

sins come out from his hands, even from beneath his fingernails. When he wipes
his head, his sins come out from his head, even from his ears. When he washes

hands to clean them, your sins come out from between your fingers and
fingertips. When you rinse your mouth and nostrils, and wash your face and
hands up to the elbows, and wipe your head, and wash your feet up to the
ankles, you are cleansed of all your sins. When you prostrate your face to
Allah, may He be exalted, you emerge from your sins like the day your mother
bore you.'” Abu 'Umamah said: “I said: 'O 'Amr bin 'Abasah! Look at what you
are saying! Was all of that given in one sitting?' He said: 'By Allah, I have

here! If I had known that you were here I would not have performed Wudu' like

Companions. My brothers are those who have not come yet. And I will reach the
Hawd before you.” They said: “O Messenger of Allah, how will you know those of
your Ummah who come after you?” He said: “Don't you think that if a man has a
horse with a white blaze and white feet among horses that are solid black, he
will recognize his horse?” They said: “Of course.” He said: “They will come on

should be performed, and the Messenger of Allah (saw) said: 'Wudu' should be
performed after touching the penis.' 'Urwah said: 'I continued to argue with
Marwan until he called one of his guards and sent him to Busrah to ask her
about what Marwan had narrated, and Busrah sent word saying something like that
which Marwan had narrated to me from her.” (Sahih)
165
It was narrated that Talq bin 'Ali said: “We went out as a delegation and when
we arrived with the Messenger of Allah (saw) he accepted our oath of allegiance
and we prayed with him. When he had finished the prayer, a man who looked like
a Bedouin came to him and said: 'O Messenger of Allah, what do you think about

of you,' or 'a piece of you.'” (Sahih)

he had finished prostrating.” (Sahih)
168
It was narrated that 'Aishah said: “I used to sleep in front of the Messenger
of Allah (saw) and my feet were in the direction of his Qiblah. When he

stretched them out again. And there were no lamps in the houses at that time.”
(Sahih)
169
It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that 'Aishah said: “I noticed the Prophet
(saw) was not there one night, so I started looking for him with my hand. My

from Your punishment, and I seek refuge in You from You. I cannot praise You
enough, You are as You have praised yourself.'” (Sahih)

wives and then pray without performing Wudu'. (Hasan)

is better than this Hadith, even though it is Mursal. And Al-A'mash reported
this Hadith from Habib bin Abi Thabit, form 'Urwah, from 'Aishah.
Yahya Al-Qattan said: “This is the Hadith of Habib from 'Urwah,
from 'Aishah. And the Hadith of Habib from 'Urwah, from 'Aishah: “She prays
even if blood drips on the mat” is nothing.

witness that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger), O Muhammad, by Allah! There
was no face on the face of the Earth that was more hateful to me than your

sees in a dream what men see should she perform Ghusl from that?” The Messenger
of Allah (saw) said to her: “Yes.” ‘Aishah said: “I expressed my displeasure

(non-menstrual vaginal bleeding) for seven years. She complained about that to

pray.’” (Sahih)
204 It
was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “Umm Habibah bint Jahsh – the wife of
‘Abdur-Rahman bin ‘Awf and the sister of Zainab bint Jahsh – suffered Istihadah
(non-menstrual vaginal bleeding).” She said: “She consulted the Messenger of
Allah (saw) and the Messenger of Allah (saw) said to her: ‘That is not
menstruation, rather that is a vein. When your period goes, perform Ghusl and
pray, and when it comes, stop praying (for that period).’” ‘Aishah said: “She
used to perform Ghusl for every prayer and pray. Sometimes she would perform
Ghusl in a wash tub in the room of her sister Zainab when she was with the
Messenger of Allah (saw) and the water would turn red with blood, then she
would go out and pray with the Messenger of Allah (saw). That did not stop her
from praying.” (Sahih)
205
It was narrated from ‘Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that Umm Habibah,
an in-law of the Messenger of Allah (saw), who was married to ‘Abdur-Rahman bin
‘Awf, suffered Istihadah (non-menstrual vaginal bleeding) for seven years. She

‘That is not menstruation, rather it is a vein, so perform Ghusl and pray.’”
(Sahih)

Istihadah
207

about bleeding. ‘Aishah said: “I saw her wash tub filled with blood. The

period prevents you, then perform Ghusl.’” (Sahih)
208
(Another chain) (Sahih)
209
It was narrated from Umm Salamah that a woman suffered constant bleeding at the
time of the Messenger of Allah (saw), so Umm Salamah consulted the Prophet
(saw) for her. He said: “Let her count the number of nights and days that she
used to menstruate each month before this happened to her, and let her stop
praying for that amount of time each month. Then when that is over let her
perform Ghusl, then let her use a pad, and pray.” (Da’if)
210
It was narrated from ‘Aishah that Umm Habibah bint Jahsh who was married to
‘Abdur-Rahman bin ‘Awf suffered from Istihadah (non-menstrual vaginal bleeding)
and did not become pure. Her situation was mentioned to the Messenger of Allah
(saw) and he said: ‘That is not menstruation, rather it is a kick* in the womb,
so let her work out the length of the menses that she used to have, and stop
praying (for that period of time), then after that let her perform Ghusl for
every prayer.’” (Sahih)
*A kick in the womb: in other narrations means “A kick from
Shaitan,”, meaning that the Shaitan uses it to confuse her about her religious
commitment.
211
It was narrated from ‘Aishah that Umm Habibah bint Jahsh used to suffer from
Istihadah (non-menstrual vaginal bleeding) for seven years. She asked the
Prophet (saw) and he said: “That is not menstruation, rather it is a vein. Tell
her not to pray for the amount of time that he period used to last, then let
her perform Ghusl and pray.’ She used to perform Ghusl for every prayer. (Sahih)
212
It was narrated from ‘Urwah that Fatimah bint Abi Hubaish narrated that she
came to the Messenger of Allah (saw) and complained to him about bleeding. The
Messenger of Allah (saw) said to her: “That is a vein, so when your period
comes, do not pray, and when your period is over, purify yourself and pray in
between one period and the next.” (Da’if)
This is evidence that Al-Aqra’ is menstruation. Abu ‘Abdur-Rahman
said: Hisham bin ‘Urwah reported this Hadith from ‘Urwah, and he did not
mention what Al-Mundhir mentioned in it.
213 It
was narrated that ‘Aishah said: Fatimah bint Abi Hubaish came to the Messenger
of Allah (saw) and said: “I am a woman who suffers from Istihadah
(non-menstrual vaginal bleeding) and I never become pure. Should I stop praying?”
He said: “No, that is a vein, it is not menstruation. When your period comes,
stop praying, and when it goes, wash the blood from yourself and pray.” (Sahih)
214
It was narrated from ‘Aishah that a woman who suffered from Istihadah during
the time of the Messenger of Allah (saw) was told that it was a stubborn vein
(i.e., one that would not stop bleeding). She was told to delay Zuhr and bring
‘Asr forward, and to perform one Ghusl for both, and to delay Maghrib and bring
‘Isha’ forward, and to perform one Ghusl for both, and to perform one Ghusl for
Subh. (Sahih)
215
It was narrated from Jabir bin 'Abdullah, in the Hadith of 'Asma' bint 'Umais,
when she gave birth in Dhul-Hulaifah, that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said to
Abu Bakr: “Tell her to perform Ghusl and enter Ihram.” (Sahih)
216
It was narrated from Fatimah bint Abi Hubaish that she suffered from Istihadah
and the Messenger of Allah (saw) said to her: “If it is menstrual blood then it
is blood that is black and recognizable, so stop praying, and if it is other
than that then perform Wudu’, for it is a vein.” (Sahih)
217 It
was narrated from ‘Aishah that Fatimah bint Abi Hubaish suffered from Istihadah
(non-menstrual vaginal bleeding). The Messenger of Allah (saw) said to her:
“Menstrual blood is blood that is black and recognizable, so if it is like
that, then stop praying, and if it is otherwise, then perform Wudu’ and pray.”
(Sahih)
Abu ‘Abdur-Rahman said: Others reported this Hadith, and none of
them mentioned what Ibn Abi ‘Adi mentioned. And Allah Most High, knows best.
218
It was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “Fatimah bint Abu Hubaish suffered from
Istihadah and she asked the Prophet (saw): ‘O Messenger of Allah, I suffer from
Istihadah and I do not become pure; should I stop praying?’ The Messenger of
Allah (saw) said: ‘That is a vein and it is not menstruation. When your period
comes, stop praying, and when it goes wash the traces of blood from yourself
and perform Wudu’. That is a vein and is not menstruation.’” It was said to him:
“What about Ghusl?’ He (saw) said: “No one doubts that.”
Abu ‘Abdur-Rahman said: “I do not know anyone who mentioned ‘and
perform Wudu’ in this Hadith except Hammad bin Zaid, for some others have
reported it from Hisham, and they did not mention ‘and perform Wudu’ in it.”
(Sahih)
219
It was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “Fatimah bint Abu Hubaish said to the
Messenger of Allah (saw): ‘O Messenger of Allah (saw), I do not become pure.
Should I stop praying?’ The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: ‘That is a vein and
is not menstruation. When your period comes, stop praying, and when the same
amount of time as your regular period has passed, then wash the blood from
yourself and pray.’” (Sahih)
220
It was narrated from ‘Aishah that the daughter of Abu Hubaish said: “O
Messenger of Allah, I do not become pure, so should I stop praying?” He said:
“No, that is a vein.” Khalid said, in what I read from him,* “And it is not
menstruation, so when your period comes, stop praying, and when it goes, wash
the blood from yourself and pray.” (Sahih)
*Meaning, before Hisham, from whom he narrates it.

matter flexible.” (Sahih)
224
It was narrated that Ghudaif bin Al-Harith said: “I entered upon ‘Aishah and
asked her: ‘Did the Messenger of Allah (saw) perform Ghusl at the beginning of

Jabir bin ‘Abdullah, and Jabir said: ‘One Sa’ of water is sufficient for Ghusl

on our hands until they were clean then pour water over them.’” Al-A’raj said:
“Not mentioning the private area nor paying attention to it.” (Sahih)

239
It was narrated that Humaid bin ‘Abdur-Rahman said: “I met a man who
accompanied the Prophet (saw) as Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him),
accompanied him for four years. He said: ‘The Messenger of Allah (saw) forbade
any one of us to comb his hair each day,*or to urinate in the place where he
performs Ghusl, or for a man to perform Ghusl using the leftover water of a
woman, or a woman to perform Ghusl using the leftover water of a man – they
should scoop it out together.’” (Sahih)
*it is said this is to prevent him from making his physical
appearance his main aim.
240
It was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “I used to perform Ghusl – the Messenger of

was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “We went out with the Messenger of Allah (saw)
in the year of the Farewell Pilgrimage. I (said the Talbiyah) for ‘Umrah and I
arrived in Makkah while I was menstruating, so I did not perform Tawaf around
the House nor between As-Safa and Al-Marwah. I complained about that to the
Messenger of Allah (saw), and he said: ‘Undo your braids and comb your hair,
and enter (begin the Talbiyah) for Hajj, and leave the ‘Umrah.’ So I did that,
and then when we had completed Hajj, he sent me with ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Abi Bakr
to At-Tan’im, and I performed ‘Umrah. He said: ‘This is in place of your
‘Umrah.’” (Sahih)

pour water onto his head three times, then pour water over the rest of his
body.’” (Hasan)

Then he put his left hand on the ground and rubbed it hard. Then he performed
Wudu’ as for prayer, then he poured three scoops with his two hands full of
water over his head, then he washed his entire body, then he moved away from
where he had been standing and washed his feet.’ She said: ‘Then I brought him
a towel but he refused it.’” (Sahih)

husband while she is menstruating? She said: ‘Yes. The Messenger of Allah (saw)
would call me to eat with him while I was menstruating. He would take a piece
of bone on which some bits of meat were left and insist that I take it first,
so I would nibble a little from it, then put it down. Then he would take it and
nibble from it, and he would put his mouth where mine had been on the bone.
Then he would ask for a drink and insist that I take it first before he drank
from it. So I would take it and drink from it, then put it down, then he would
take it and drink from it, putting his mouth where mine had been on the cup.’”

called me and I lied down with him under the blanket.” (Sahih)
285
It was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) and I would
sleep under a single blanket when I was menstruating. If anything got on him

289
It was narrated that Anas said: “When one of their womenfolk menstruated, the
Jews would not eat or drink with them, nor mix with them in their houses. They
asked the Prophet of Allah (saw) about that, and Allah the Mighty and Sublime
revealed: They ask you concerning menstruation. Say: ‘That is an Adha (a
harmful thing).’ [2:222] So the Messenger of Allah (saw) commanded them to eat
and drink with them (menstruating women) and to mix with them in their houses,
and to do everything with them except intercourse. The Jews said: ‘The
Messenger of Allah (saw) does not leave anything of our affairs except he goes
against it.’ Usaid bin Hudair and ‘Abbad bin Bishr went and told the Messenger
of Allah (saw) and they said: ‘Should we have intercourse with them when they
are menstruating?’ The expression of the Messenger of Allah (saw) changed
greatly until we thought that he was angry with them, and they left. Then the
Messenger of Allah (saw) received a gift of milk, so he sent someone to bring
them back and he gave them some to drink, so they knew that he was not angry
with them.” (Sahih)

was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “We went out with the Messenger of Allah (saw)
with no intention other than Hajj. When he was in Sarif* I began menstruating.
The Messenger of Allah (saw) entered upon me and I was weeping. He said: ‘What
is the matter with you? Has your Nifas begun?’** I said: ‘Yes.’ He said: ‘This
is something that Allah the Mighty and Sublime has decreed for the daughters of
Adam. Do what the pilgrims do, but do not perform Tawaf around the House.’ And
the Messenger of Allah (saw) sacrificed a cow on behalf of his wives.” (Sahih)
*Sarif is a place between Al-Madinah and Makkah, near Makkah.
**Here, it means menstruation. See the chapter clarifying that
were it appears again, No. 349.

and we set out with him. When he came to Dhul-Hulaifah, Asma’ bint ‘Umais gave

It was narrated that Anas bin Malik narrated that “some people
from ‘Ukl came to the Messenger of Allah (saw) and spoke about Islam. They
said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, we are nomads who follow the herds, not farmers
and growers, and the climate of Al-Madinah does not suit us.’ So the Messenger
of Allah (saw) told them to go out to a flock of female camels and drink their
milk and urine. When they recovered – and they were in the vicinity of
Al-Harrah – they apostatized after having become Muslim, killed the
camel-herder of the Messenger of Allah (saw) and drove the camels away. News of
that reached the Messenger of Allah (saw) and he sent people after them. They
were brought back, their eyes were smoldered with heated nails, their hands and
feet cut off, then they were left in Al-Harrah in that state until they died.”
(Sahih)
307
It was narrated from Anas bin Malik that some Bedouins from ‘Urainah came to
the Prophet (saw) and became Muslim, but the climate of Al-Madinah did not suit
them; their skin turned yellow and their stomachs became swollen. The Messenger
of Allah (saw) sent them to some pregnant camels of his and told them to drink
their milk and urine until they recovered. Then they killed the camel-herder
and drove the camels away. The Messenger of Allah (saw) sent people after them,
and they were brought back. Their hands and feet were cut off and their eyes
were smoldered with burning nails. The Commander of the Believers,
‘Abdul-Malik, said to Anas – when he was narrating this Hadith to him – “(Were
they being punished) for Kufr or for a sin?” He said: “For Kufr.” (Sahih)
308 It
was narrated that ‘Amr bin Maimun said: “Abdullah told us: ‘The Messenger of
Allah (saw) was praying at the House (the Ka’bah) and a group of the nobles of
Quraish were sitting there. They had just slaughtered a camel and one of them
said: “Which of you will take these stomach contents with the blood and wait
until he prostrates, then put them on his back?” ‘Abdullah said: ‘The one who
was most doomed got up and took the stomach contents, then went and waited
until he prostrated himself, and put it on his back. Fatimah, the daughter of
the Messenger of Allah (saw), who was a young girl, was told about that, and
she came running and too it off his back. When he had finished praying he said:
“O Allah! Punish the Quraish,” three times, “O Allah, punish Abu Jahl bin
Hisham, Shaibah bin Rabi’ah, ‘Utbah bin Rabi’ah, ‘Uqbah bin Abi Mu’ait” until
he had listen seven men from the Quraish.’ ‘Abdullah said: ‘By the One Who
revealed the Book to him, I saw them dead on the day of Badr (their corpses) in
a single dry well.’” (Sahih)
309 It
was narrated from Anas that the Prophet (saw) took the hem of his garment and
spat on it, rubbed it together briefly and let it drop. (Sahih)
310
It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet (saw) said: “When any one of
you prays, let him not spit in front of him or to his right, rather let him
spit to his left or beneath his feet.” Then the Prophet (saw) spat like this on
his garment and rubbed it. (Sahih)
311
It was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “We went out with the Messenger of Allah
(saw) on one of his journeys, and when we were in Al-Baida’ or Dhat Al-Jaish, a
necklace of mine broke and fell. The Messenger of Allah (saw) stayed there
looking for it and the people stayed with him. There was no water near them,
and they did not have water with them. The people came to Abu Bakr, may Allah
be pleased with him, and said: ‘Do you see what ‘Aishah has done? She has made
the Messenger of Allah (saw) and the people stop and they are not near any
water and they do not have water with them.’ Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased
with him, came while the Messenger of Allah (saw) was resting his head on my
thigh and had gone to sleep. He said: ‘You have detained the Messenger of Allah
(saw) and the people, and they are not near any water and they do not have any
water with them.’” ‘Aishah said: “Abu Bakr rebuked me and said whatever Allah
willed he would say. He started poking me on my hip, and the only thing that
prevented me from moving was the fact that the Messenger of Allah (saw) was resting
on my thigh. The Messenger of Allah (saw) slept until morning when he woke up
without any water. Then Allah, the Mighty and Sublime revealed the verse of
Tayammum. Usaid bin Hudair said: ‘This is not the first time we have been
blessed because of you, O family of Abu Bakr!’” She said: “Then we made the
camel that I had been riding stand up, and we found the necklace beneath it.”
(Sahih)
312 It
was narrated from ‘Umair the freed slave of Ibn ‘Abbas that he heard him say:
“Abdullah bin Yasar the freed slave of Maimunah, and I came and entered upon
Abu juhaim bin Al-Harith bin Al-Sammah Al-Ansari. Abu Juhaim said: ‘The
Messenger of Allah (saw) came back from the direction of Bi’r Al-Jamal and was
met by a man who greeted him with Salam, but the Messenger of Allah (saw) did
not return the greeting until he turned to the wall and wiped his face and
hands, then he returned the greeting.’” (Sahih)
313 It
was narrated from Ibn ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Abza from his father that a man came to
‘Umar and said: “I have become Junub and I do not have any water.” ‘Umar said:
“Do not pray.” But ‘Ammar bin Yasir said: “O Commander of the Believers! Don’t
you remember when you and I were on a campaign and we became Junub and could
not find water? You did not pray, but I rolled in the dust and prayed. Then we
came to the Prophet (saw) and told him about that, and he said: ‘It would have
been sufficient for you (to do this),’ then the Prophet (saw) struck his hands
on the ground and blew on them, then wiped his face and hands with them’” –
(one of the narrators) Salamah was uncertain and did not know whether that was
up to the elbows or just the hands. And ‘Umar said: “We will let you bear the
burden of what you took upon yourself.” (Sahih)
314
It was narrated that ‘Ammar bin Yasir said: “I became Junub while
I was on a camel and I could not find any water, so I rolled in the dust like
an animal. I came to the Messenger of Allah (saw) and told him about that, and
he said: ‘Tayammum would have been sufficient for you.’” (Sahih)
315
It was narrated that ‘Ammas said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) stopped to rest
at the end of the night in Uwlat Al-Jaish. His wife ‘aishah was with him and
her necklace of Zifar beads* broke and fell. The army was detained looking for
that necklace of hers until the break of the light of dawn and the people had
no water with them. Abu Bakr got angry with her and said: ‘You have detained
the people and they do not have any water.’ Then Allah the Mighty and Sublime
revealed the concession allowing Tayammum with clean earth. So the Muslims got
up with the Messenger of Allah (saw) and struck the earth with their hands and
did not strike them together to knock off any of the dust, then they wiped
their faces and arms up to the shoulders, and from the inner side of their arms
up to the armpits.” (Sahih)
*Black and white Yemeni beads.
316
It was narrated that ‘Ammar bin Yasir said: “We did Tayammum with the Messenger
of Allah (saw) using dust, and we wiped our faces and our arms up to the
shoulders.” (Sahih)
317 It
was narrated that ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Abza said: “We were with ‘Umar when a man
came to him and said: ‘O Commander of the Believers! Sometimes we stay for a
month or two without finding any water. Umar said: As if I did not find water,
I would not pray until I found water.’ ‘Ammar bin Yasir said: ‘Do you remember,
O Commander of the Believers, when you were in such and such a place and we
were rearing the camels, and you know that we became Junub?’ He said: ‘Yes.’ As
for me I rolled in the dust, then we came to the Prophet (saw) and he laughed
and said: “Clean earth would have been sufficient for you.” And he struck his
hands on the earth then blew on them, then he wiped his face and part of his
forearms. He (‘Umar) said: “Fear Allah, O ‘Ammar!’” He said: ‘O Commander of
the Believers! If you wish I will not mention it.’ He said: ‘No, we will let
you bear the burden of what you took upon yourself.’” (Sahih)
318
It was narrated from Ibn ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Abza, from his father,
that man asked ‘Umar bin Al-Khattab about Tayammum and he did not know what to
say. ‘Ammar said: “Do you remember when we were on a campaign, and I became
Junub and rolled in the dust, then I came to the Prophet (saw) and he said:
‘This would have been sufficient.’” (One of the narrators) Shu’bah struck his
hands on his knees and blew into his hands, then he wiped his face and palms
with them once. (Sahih)
319
It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abdur-Rahman said: “A man became Junub and came to
‘Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, and said: ‘I have become Junub and I
cannot find any water.’ He said: ‘Do not pray.’ ‘Ammar said to him: ‘Do you not
remember when we were on a campaign and became Junub. You did not pray but I
rolled in the dust and prayed, then I came to the Prophet (saw) and told him
about that, and he said: ‘This would have been sufficient for you.’” – (One of
the narrators) Shu’bah struck his hands once and blew into them, then he rubbed
them together, then wiped his face with them – (‘Ammar said): “ ‘Umar said
something I did not understand.” So he said: “If you wish, I shall not narrate
it.” Salamah mentioned something in this chain from Abu Malik, and Salamah
added that he said: “Rather, we will let you bear the burden of what you took
upon yourself.” (Sahih)
320 It
was narrated from Ibn ‘Abdur-Rahman bin Abza, from his father, that a man came
to ‘Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, and said: “I have become Junub and I
cannot find any water.” ‘Umar said: “Do not pray.” ‘Ammar said: “Do you not
remember, O Commander of the Believers, when you and I were on a campaign and
became Junub, and we could not find any water. You did not pray, but I rolled
in the dust then prayed. When we came to the Messenger of Allah (saw) I told
him about that and he said: ‘This would have been sufficient for you,’ and the
Prophet (saw) struck the earth with his hands then blew on them and wiped his
face and hands – (one of the narrators) Salamah was uncertain and said: “I do
not know if he said it should be up to the elbows or just the hands.” – ‘Umar
said: “We will let you bear the burden of what you took upon yourself.” (One of
the narrators) Shu’bahsaid: “He used to say the hands, face and forearms.”
(Another) Mansur said to him: “What are you saying? No one mentions the
forearms except you.” Salamah was not certain and said: “I do not know whether
he mentioned the forearms or not.” (Sahih)
321 It
was narrated that Shaqiq said: “I was sitting with ‘Abdullah and Abu Musa, and
Abu Musa said: ‘Have you not heard what ‘Ammar said to ‘Umar: ‘The Messenger of
Allah (saw) sent me on an errand and I became Junub, and I could not find
water, so I rolled in the earth then I came to the Prophet (saw) and told him
about that.’ He said: ‘It would have been sufficient for you to do this,’ and
he struck the earth with his hands, then wiped his hands, then knocked them
together to remove the dust, then he wiped his right hand with his left and his
left hand with his right, palm to palm, and wiped his face.’” Then ‘Abdullah
said: “Did you not see that ‘Umar was not convinced by what ‘Ammar said:”
(Sahih)
322
It was narrated that Abu Raja’ said: “I heard ‘Imran bin Husain (say) that the
Prophet (saw) saw a man who was by himself and did not pray with the people. He
said: ‘O so and so, what kept you from praying with the people?’ He said: ‘O
Messenger of Allah, I have become Junub and there is no water.’ He said: ‘You
should use earth for that will suffice you.’” (Sahih)
323 It
was narrated that Abu Dharr said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: ‘Clean
earth is the Wudu’ of the Muslim, even if he does not find water for ten
years.’” (Hasan)
324
It was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) sent Usaid bin
Hudair and some other people to look for a necklace that ‘Aishah had left
behind in a place where she had stopped (while traveling). The time for prayer
came and they did not have Wudu’, and they could not find any water, so they
prayed without Wudu’. They mentioned that to the Messenger of Allah (saw), and
Allah, the Mighty and Sublime revealed the verse of Tayammum. Usaid bin Hudair
said: ‘May Allah reward you with good, for by Allah, nothing ever happened to
you that you dislike, but Allah makes it good for you and the Muslims.’”
(Sahih)

It was narrated from Tariq that a man became Junub and did not pray, then he
came to the Prophet (saw) and mentioned that to him. He said: “You did the
right thing.” Another man became Junub and performed Tayammum and prayed, and
he came to him and he said something similar to what he had told the other man
– meaning, you did the right thing. (Sahih)
