باب الغسل - الفصل الأول

Mishkat al-Masabih 436

Ibn ‘Abbas reported Maimuna as saying, "I set out water for the Prophet (ﷺ) to wash and concealed him with a garment. He poured water on his hands and washed them, then poured water with his right hand over his left, then washed his private parts, then put his hand on the ground and wiped it. He then washed it, rinsed his mouth, snuffed up water, washed his face and forearms, then poured water over his head and emptied it out over his body, after which he moved aside and washed his feet. I handed him a garment, but he did not take it; he went off shaking his hands." (Bukhari and Muslim, the wording being Bukhari’s.)

وَعَن ابْن عَبَّاس قَالَ قَالَتْ مَيْمُونَةُ: وَضَعْتُ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ غُسْلًا فَسَتَرْتُهُ بِثَوْبٍ وَصَبَّ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ فَغَسَلَهُمَا ثُمَّ صَبَّ بِيَمِينِهِ عَلَى شَمَالِهِ فَغَسَلَ فَرْجَهُ فَضَرَبَ بِيَدِهِ الْأَرْضَ فَمَسَحَهَا ثُمَّ غَسَلَهَا فَمَضْمَضَ وَاسْتَنْشَقَ وَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ وَذِرَاعَيْهِ ثُمَّ صَبَّ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ وَأَفَاضَ عَلَى جَسَدِهِ ثُمَّ تَنَحَّى فَغَسَلَ قَدَمَيْهِ فَنَاوَلْتُهُ ثَوْبًا فَلَمْ يَأْخُذْهُ فَانْطَلق وَهُوَ ينفض يَدَيْهِ. وَلَفظه للْبُخَارِيّ

Anas told that when the Prophet (ﷺ) was ill he came out leaning on Usama, wearing a striped garment with an end over his left shoulder, and led them in the prayer. It is transmitted in Sharh as-sunna.

وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ: أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ شَاكِيًا فَخَرَجَ يَتَوَكَّأُ عَلَى أُسَامَةَ وَعَلَيْهِ ثَوْبُ قِطْرٍ قَدْ تَوَشَّحَ بِهِ فَصَلَّى بهم. رَوَاهُ فِي شرح السّنة

‘A’isha said ; The Prophet (ﷺ) wore two coarse striped garments, and when he sat and sweated he felt them heavy. A certain Jew received a consignment of cloth from Syria, so I suggested he should send to him and buy two garments from him to be paid when circumstances were easier. He did so, and when the man replied, “I know what you want; all you want is to go off with my property,” God’s messenger said, “He has lied; he knows I am one of the most pious of them and most accustomed to pay what is given on trust.” Tirmidhi and Nasa’i transmitted it.

وَعَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: كَانَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَوْبَانِ قِطْرِيَّانِ غَلِيظَانِ وَكَانَ إِذا قعد فرق ثَقُلَا عَلَيْهِ فَقَدِمَ بَزٌّ مِنَ الشَّامِ لِفُلَانٍ الْيَهُودِيِّ. فَقُلْتُ: لَوْ بَعَثْتَ إِلَيْهِ فَاشْتَرَيْتَ مِنْهُ ثَوْبَيْنِ إِلَى الْمَيْسَرَةِ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ: قَدْ عَلِمْتُ مَا تُرِيدُ إِنَّمَا تُرِيدُ أَنْ تَذْهَبَ بِمَالِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «كَذَبَ قَدْ عَلِمَ أَنِّي مِنْ أَتْقَاهُمْ وآداهُم للأمانة» . رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيّ وَالنَّسَائِيّ

‘Abdallah b. ‘Amr b. al-‘As said

God’s messenger saw me wearing a garment dyed with a reddish yellow dye and asked what this was, so as I recognised what he disliked I went away and burned it. He asked me what I had done with my garment, and when I told him I had burned it he said, “Why did you not give it to one of your family to wear, for there is no harm in it for women ?” Abu Dawud transmitted it.

وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ قَالَ: رَآنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَعَلَى ثَوْبٌ مَصْبُوغٌ بِعُصْفُرٍ مُوَرَّدًا فَقَالَ: «مَا هَذَا؟» فَعَرَفْتُ مَا كَرِهَ فَانْطَلَقْتُ فَأَحْرَقْتُهُ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَا صَنَعْتَ بِثَوْبِكَ؟» قُلْتُ: أَحْرَقْتُهُ قَالَ: «أَفَلَا كَسَوْتَهُ بَعْضَ أَهْلِكَ؟ فَإِنَّهُ لَا بَأْسَ بِهِ لِلنِّسَاءِ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد

Hilal b. ‘Amir quoted his father as saying he saw the Prophet (ﷺ) in Mina on a she-mule giving an address, wearing a red cloak, with ‘Ali in front of him repeating what he said. (This was because the crowd was too large for all to hear the Prophet. ‘AIi was repeating his words for the benefit of those too far away to bear the address) Abu Dawud transmitted it.

وَعَن هلالِ بن عَامر عَن أَبِيه قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمِنًى يَخْطُبُ عَلَى بَغْلَةٍ وَعَلَيْهِ بُرْدٌ أَحْمَرُ وَعَلِيٌّ أَمَامَهُ يُعَبِّرُ عَنْهُ. رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ

‘A’isha said a black cloak was made for the Prophet (ﷺ) and he put it on, but when he sweated in it and noticed the odour of the wool, he threw it away. Abu Dawud transmitted it.

وَعَن عَائِشَة قَالَتْ: صُنِعَتْ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بُرْدَةٌ سَوْدَاءُ فَلَبِسَهَا فَلَمَّا عَرِقَ فِيهَا وَجَدَ ريح الصُّوف فقذفها. رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد

Jabir said ; When I came to the Prophet (ﷺ) he was sitting with his hands round his knees wearing a cloak the fringe of which was over his feet. Abu Dawud transmitted it.

وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ مُحْتَبٍ بِشَمْلَةٍ قَدْ وَقَعَ هُدْبها على قَدَمَيْهِ. رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد

Dihya b. Khalifa said

When the Prophet (ﷺ) was brought some pieces of fine Egyptian linen he gave me one and said, “Divide it into two; cut one of the pieces into a shirt and give the other to your wife for a veil.” Then when he turned away he said, “And order your wife to wear a garment below it and not show her figure.” Abu Dawud transmitted it.

وَعَن دِحيةَ بن خليفةَ قَالَ: أَتَى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِقَبَاطِيَّ فَأَعْطَانِي مِنْهَا قُبْطِيَّةً فَقَالَ: «اصْدَعْهَا صَدْعَيْنِ فَاقْطَعْ أَحَدَهُمَا قَمِيصًا وَأَعْطِ الْآخَرَ امْرَأَتَكَ تَخْتَمِرُ بِهِ» . فَلَمَّا أَدْبَرَ قَالَ: «وَأْمُرِ امْرَأَتَكَ أَنْ تَجْعَلَ تَحْتَهُ ثَوْبًا لَا يَصِفُهَا» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد

Umm Salama said the Prophet (ﷺ) came to visit her when she was veiled and said, “Use one fold, not two.” Abu Dawud transmitted it.

وَعَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا وَهِيَ تَخْتَمِرُ فَقَالَ: «ليَّةً لَا ليَّتينِ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد

Ibn ‘Umar said

Part of my lower garment was hanging down when I passed by God’s messenger, so he said, “Raise your lower garment, ‘Abdallah.” I did so and he told mo to raise it higher. I did so, and as I was still trying to find the best place [for it] one of the people asked where it should reach and he replied, “Halfway up the legs.” Muslim transmitted it.

عَن ابنِ عمَرِ قَالَ: مَرَرْتُ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَفِي إِزَارِي اسْتِرْخَاءٌ فَقَالَ: «يَا عَبْدَ اللَّهِ ارْفَعْ إِزَارَكَ» فَرَفَعْتُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ: «زِدْ» فَزِدْتُ فَمَا زِلْتُ أَتَحَرَّاهَا بَعْدُ فَقَالَ: بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ: إِلَى أَيْنَ؟ قَالَ: «إِلَى أَنْصَافِ السَّاقَيْنِ» . رَوَاهُ مُسلم

He reported the Prophet (ﷺ) as saying, “On the day of resurrection God will not look at him who trails his garment arrogantly.” Abu Bakr then said, “Messenger of God, my lower garment hangs down unless I keep paying attention to it,” to which God’s messenger replied, “You are not one of those who do it arrogantly.” Bukhari transmitted it.

وَعَنْهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَنْ جَرَّ ثَوْبَهُ خُيَلَاءَ لَمْ يَنْظُرِ اللَّهُ إِلَيْهِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ» . فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِزَارِي يَسْتَرْخِي إِلَّا أَنْ أَتَعَاهَدَهُ. فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّكَ لَسْتَ مِمَّنْ يَفْعَلُهُ خُيَلَاءَ» . رَوَاهُ البُخَارِيّ
