[Machine] Abu Musa used to urinate in a bottle and say, "When one of the children of Israel used to experience the need to urinate, he would dig a hole and urinate in it." Hudhaifah said, "I wish that your companion would not enforce this strictness. I have seen myself following the Prophet ﷺ until we reached a place called Subata, and he stood up to urinate just as any of you would. So I moved away from him, and he said, 'Come closer.'" So I approached him until I was by his side.

أَنَّ أَبَا مُوسَى كَانَ يَبُولُ فِي قَارُورَةٍ وَيَقُولُ إِنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ كَانَ إِذَا أَصَابَ أَحَدَهُمُ الْبَوْلُ قَرَضَ مَكَانَهُ قَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ وَدِدْتُ أَنَّ صَاحِبَكُمْ لَا يُشَدِّدُ هَذَا التَّشْدِيدَ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُنِي نَتَمَاشَى مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَانْتَهَيْنَا إِلَى سُبَاطَةٍ فَقَامَ يَبُولُ كَمَا يَبُولُ أَحَدُكُمْ فَذَهَبْتُ أَتَنَحَّى عَنْهُ فَقَالَ ادْنُهْ فَدَنَوْتُ مِنْهُ حَتَّى كُنْتُ عِنْدَ عَقِبِهِ

muslim:273b – Yaḥyá b. Yaḥyá > Jarīr > Manṣūr > Abū Wāʾil

Abu Musa inflicted extreme rigour upon himself in the matter of urination and urinated in a bottle and said: When the skin of anyone amongst the people of Israel was besmeared with urine, he cut that portion with a cutter. Hudhaifa said: I wish that'your friend should not inflict such an extreme rigour. I and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ were going together till we reached the dumping ground of filth behind an enclosure. He stood up as one among you would stand up. and he urinated, I tried to turn away from him, but he beckoned to me, so I went to him and I stood behind him, till he had relieved himself.

[Machine] Abu Musa used to struggle with urinating. He said, "When the children of Israel would face difficulty in urinating, they would use two small stones to wash themselves." Hudhaifa said, "I wish he wouldn't struggle. I have seen the Messenger of Allah ﷺ come or walk to the outskirts of a people's land while he was standing."

أَنَّ أَبَا مُوسَى كَانَ يُشَدِّدُ فِي الْبَوْلِ قَالَ كَانَ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ إِذَا أَصَابَ أَحَدَهُمُ الْبَوْلُ يُتْبِعُهُ بِالْمِقْرَاضَيْنِ قَالَ حُذَيْفَةُ وَدِدْتُ أَنَّهُ لَا يُشَدِّدُ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَتَى أَوْ قَالَ مَشَى إِلَى سُبَاطَةِ قَوْمٍ فَبَالَ وَهُوَ قَائِمٌ  

ذِكْرُ الْخَبَرِ الْمُدْحِضِ قَوْلَ مَنْ زَعَمَ أَنَّ هَذَا الْخَبَرَ تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ سُلَيْمَانُ الْأَعْمَشُ
