[Machine] Abu Huraira used to say, "Whoever wakes up in a state of janabah (major ritual impurity), then fasting is not valid for him." Marwan ibn al-Hakam sent me and another man to Aisha and Umm Salamah, asking them about waking up in a state of janabah in Ramadan before taking a ritual bath. One of them said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to wake up in a state of janabah, then he would take a bath and observe his fasting for the day." The other one said, "He used to wake up in a state of janabah without having a wet dream, then he would complete his fasting." They both returned and informed Marwan about it. He said to Abdur-Rahman, "Inform Abu Huraira about what they said." Abu Huraira said, "That is what I used to think and believe." Marwan said, "You give fatwa (religious rulings) based on your thinking and beliefs."

كَانَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ مَنْ أَصْبَحَ جُنُبًا فَلَا صَوْمَ لَهُ قَالَ فَأَرْسَلَنِي مَرْوَانُ بْنُ الْحَكَمِ أَنَا وَرَجُلٌ آخَرَ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ وَأُمِّ سَلَمَةَ نَسْأَلُهُمَا عَنِ الْجُنُبِ يُصْبِحُ فِي رَمَضَانَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَغْتَسِلَ؟ قَالَ فَقَالَتْ إِحْدَاهُمَا قَدْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يُصْبِحُ جُنُبًا ثُمَّ يَغْتَسِلُ وَيُتِمُّ صِيَامَ يَوْمِهِ قَالَ وَقَالَتِ الْأُخْرَى كَانَ يُصْبِحُ جُنُبًا مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَحْتَلِمَ ثُمَّ يُتِمُّ صَوْمَهُ قَالَ فَرَجَعَا فَأَخْبَرَا مَرْوَانَ بِذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لِعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَخْبِرْ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ بِمَا قَالَتَا فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ كَذَا كُنْتُ أَحْسَبُ وَكَذَا كُنْتُ أَظُنُّ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُ مَرْوَانُ بِأَظُنُّ وَبِأَحْسَبُ تُفْتِي النَّاسَ
