[Machine] I went to Aisha, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ , to ask her about wiping over the socks. She told me to ask the son of Abu Talib, for he used to travel with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . So I went to Ali and asked him, and he said that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded us to wipe over the socks three times when we are traveling, and for a day and a night when we are staying in one place. Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz informed us, Abu Amr ibn Abi Ja'far informed me, Abdul-Razzaq informed Isaac, and he mentioned it in a similar manner except that he said, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ granted three days and nights for the traveler, and a day and a night for the resident." And Sufyan, when he mentioned Umar, praised him.  

أَتَيْتُ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أَسْأَلُهَا عَنِ الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ فَقَالَتْ عَلَيْكِ بِابْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يُسَافَرُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَأَتَيْتُ عَلِيًّا فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَنَّ نَمْسَحَ ثَلَاثًا إِذَا سَافَرْنَا وَيَوْمًا وَلَيْلَةً إِذَا أَقَمْنَا 1304 أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو عَمْرِو بْنُ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ثنا إِسْحَاقُ أنبأ عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ فَذَكَرَهُ بِنَحْوِهِ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ فَقَالَ جَعَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيهِنَّ لِلْمُسَافِرِ وَلَيْلَةً وَيَوْمًا لِلْمُقِيمِ وَكَانَ سُفْيَانُ إِذَا ذَكَرَ عَمْرًا أَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ  

[Machine] Ask Ali ibn Abi Talib, for he used to go on military expeditions with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . So I asked him and he said, "We used to perform Tayammum (dry ablution) for three days and nights for the traveler, and for the resident it was one day and night."  

سَلْ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يَغْزُو مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ كُنَّا نَمْسَحُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيَهُنَّ لِلْمُسَافِرِ وَيَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةٌ لِلْمُقِيمِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ ordered wiping over the two socks during the Tabuk expedition for three days and nights for the traveler, and one day and night for the resident. Abu al-Hasan al-Muqri' narrated to us, who was narrated to by al-Hasan ibn Muhammad ibn Ishaq, who was narrated to by Yusuf ibn Ya'qub, who was narrated to by Abu al-Rabi', who was narrated to by Hushaym ibn Bashir, who mentioned it in a similar manner. Abu 'Isa al-Tirmidhi said: I asked Muhammad, meaning Al-Bukhari, about this hadith, and he said: it is a good hadith.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَمَرَ بِالْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيَهُنَّ لِلْمُسَافِرِ وَيَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةٌ لِلْمُقِيمِ 1307 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ الْمُقْرِئُ ثنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ثنا يُوسُفُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ ثنا هُشَيْمُ بْنُ بَشِيرٍ فَذَكَرَهُ بِنَحْوِهِ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى التِّرْمِذِيُّ سَأَلْتُ مُحَمَّدًا يَعْنِي الْبُخَارِيَّ عَنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فَقَالَ هُوَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked about wiping over the socks, so he said for the traveler, three days and their nights, and for the resident, one day and one night. And my father used to take off his socks and wash his feet. And Abu Al-Qasim Abdur-Rahman ibn Ubaidullah Al-Hurfi from Baghdad informed us, narrating from Abu Al-Hasan Ali ibn Muhammad ibn Al-Zubayr Al-Qurashi Al-Kufi, that I am Al-Hasan ibn Ali ibn Affan, and he mentioned it in a similar way. And this is the narration.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ سُئِلَ عَنِ الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ فَقَالَ لِلْمُسَافِرِ ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيهِنَّ وَلِلْمُقِيمِ يَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةٌ وَكَانَ أَبِي يَنْزِعُ خُفَّيْهِ وَيَغْسِلُ رِجْلَيْهِ 1309 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ الْحُرْفِيُّ بِبَغْدَادَ ثنا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ الْقُرَشِيُّ الْكُوفِيُّ أنا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَفَّانَ فَذَكَرَهُ بِمِثْلِهِ وَهَذَا الْحَدِيثُ  

[Machine] I came to Safwan ibn 'Assal Al-Muradi and he asked me, "What brings you here?" I said, "I seek knowledge." He replied, "Verily, the angels spread their wings for the seeker of knowledge out of satisfaction for what he seeks." I said, "May I ask you a personal question? I have a habit of wiping the two soles of my feet after relieving myself or urinating, and I was one of the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Have you heard anything from him regarding this matter?" He said, "Yes, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to instruct us, when we were on a journey or traveling, not to remove our socks for three days and nights, except for sexual impurity (janabah), but we can remove them for defecation, urination, or sleep."  

أَتَيْتُ صَفْوَانَ بْنَ عَسَّالٍ الْمُرَادِيَّ فَقَالَ مَا جَاءَ بِكَ؟ فَقُلْتُ أَبْتَغِي الْعِلْمَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ لَتَضَعُ أَجْنِحَتَهَا لِطَالِبِ الْعِلْمِ رِضَاءً بِمَا يَطْلُبُ قُلْتُ حَكَّ فِي صَدْرِي الْمَسْحُ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ بَعْدَ الْغَائِطِ وَالْبَوْلِ وَكُنْتُ امْرَأً مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَتَيْتُكَ أَسْأَلُكَ هَلْ سَمِعْتَ مِنْهُ فِي ذَلِكَ شَيْئًا؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ كَانَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَأْمُرُنَا إِذَا كُنَّا سَفَرًا أَوْ مُسَافِرِينَ أَنْ لَا نَنْزِعَ خِفَافَنَا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيَهُنَّ إِلَّا مِنَ الْجَنَابَةِ وَلَكِنْ مِنْ غَائِطٍ أَوْ بَوْلٍ أَوْ نَوْمٍ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent out a military expedition, and in it, he said, 'Let one of you wipe over his socks when traveling for three days and nights, and when staying in a place, for one day and night.'  

بَعَثَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ سَرِيَّةً فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ وَفِيهِ قَالَ فَلْيَمْسَحْ أَحَدُكُمْ عَلَى خُفَّيْهِ إِذَا كَانَ مُسَافِرًا ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيَهُنَّ وَإِذَا كَانَ مُقِيمًا فَيَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةً  

The Prophet ﷺ said: The time limit for wiping over the socks for a traveller is three days (and three nights) and for a resident it is one day and one night. Abu Dawud said: Another version adds: Had we requested him to extend (the period of wiping), he would have extended. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 157)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ لِلْمُسَافِرِ ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ وَلِلْمُقِيمِ يَوْمٌ  

[Machine] The wiping for the traveler is for three days and their nights.  

الْمَسْحُ لِلْمُسَافِرِ ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيهِنَّ  

[Machine] He said that a man wipes on his socks until the time of its day and night.  

أَنَّهُ قَالَ يَمْسَحُ الرَّجُلُ عَلَى خُفَّيْهِ إِلَى سَاعَتِهَا مِنْ يَوْمِهَا وَلَيْلَتِهَا  

[Machine] Al-Harith, I do not remove my shoes until I come to my bed.  

الْحَارِثُ فَمَا أَنْزِعُ خُفِّي حَتَّى آتِيَ فِرَاشِي  

[Machine] I went out with Abdullah ibn Mas'ud to the city and he did not remove his shoes three times and wiped over them.  

خَرَجْتُ مَعَ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ فَلَمْ يَنْزِعِ الْخُفَّ ثَلَاثًا وَيَمْسَحُ عَلَيْهِ  

[Machine] A day for the resident and three days for the traveler.  

يَوْمٌ لِلْمُقِيمِ وَثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ لِلْمُسَافِرِ  

I asked ʿAʿishah ؓ about wiping over the khuff (leather slippers) and she said: Ask ʿAli ؓ . I asked him and he said: Three days and nights - i.e., for the traveller - and one day and night for one who is not travelling (Using translation from Aḥmad 780)   

ثَلَاثَةُ أَيَّامٍ وَلَيَالِيهِنَّ لِلْمُسَافِرِ وَيَوْمٌ وَلَيْلَةٌ لِلْمُقِيمِ
