40. Chapter
٤٠۔ كِتَابُ الصَّدَاقِ
[Machine] In the Torah, it is mentioned that the blessing of food is ablution before and after it. I mentioned this to the Prophet ﷺ and he said that the blessing of food is ablution before and after it. Qais bin Rabi'ah is not strong and there is no evidence in the hadith about washing the hands before eating.
فِي التَّوْرَاةِ إِنَّ بَرَكَةَ الطَّعَامِ الْوُضُوءُ قَبْلَهُ فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ بَرَكَةُ الطَّعَامِ الْوُضُوءُ قَبْلَهُ وَبَعْدَهُ قَيْسُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ غَيْرُ قَوِيٍّ وَلَمْ يَثْبُتْ فِي غَسْلِ الْيَدِ قَبْلَ الطَّعَامِ حَدِيثٌ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever goes to bed with a container of water in his hand and something happens to him, he should not blame anyone but himself." This was narrated by 'Uqail from Ibn Shihab from 'Ubaydullah bin 'Abdullah from Abu Sa'id.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ بَاتَ وَفِي يَدِهِ غَمَرٌ فَأَصَابَهُ شَيْءٌ فَلَا يَلُومَنَّ إِلَّا نَفْسَهُ وَرَوَاهُ عُقَيْلٌ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever sleeps with impurity in his hand and does not wash it, and something happens to him, he has no one to blame but himself." And the hadith of Suwaid bin Nu'man regarding the rinsing of the mouth of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and their rinsing after eating Sawiq is evidence for this matter. It has already been mentioned in the Book of Taharah (purification). The hadith regarding washing hands after eating is good if it is done before eating, and it is weak if it is done after eating. And in the authentic hadith narrated by Ibn Abbas, the Prophet ﷺ went to the restroom and then came back, and food was brought to him. It was said, "O Messenger of Allah, shouldn't you perform ablution?" He said, "I haven't prayed, so I will perform ablution."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ نَامَ وَفِي يَدِهِ غَمَرٌ وَلَمْ يَغْسِلْهُ فَأَصَابَهُ شَيْءٌ فَلَا يَلُومَنَّ إِلَّا نَفْسَهُ وَحَدِيثُ سُوَيْدِ بْنِ النُّعْمَانِ فِي مَضْمَضَةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَمَضْمَضَتِهِمْ بَعْدَ أَكْلِهِمُ السَّوِيقَ دَلِيلٌ فِي هَذَا الْبَابِ وَقَدْ مَضَى فِي كِتَابِ الطَّهَارَةِ فَالْحَدِيثُ فِي غَسْلِ الْيَدِ بَعْدَ الطَّعَامِ حَسَنٌ وَهُوَ قَبْلَ الطَّعَامِ ضَعِيفٌ وَفِي الْحَدِيثِ الصَّحِيحِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ أَتَى الْخَلَاءَ ثُمَّ رَجَعَ فَأُتِيَ بِطَعَامٍ فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَلَا تَتَوَضَّأْ؟ فَقَالَ لَمْ أُصَلِّ فَأَتَوَضَّأَ
