[Machine] O Messenger of Allah, we live on the earth and we are affected by scabies. When will death come to us? He said: "Unless you clean yourself with water after defecating or urinating, or cover it with a handful of dirt, then it is permissible for you." Abu 'Ubaid said: Abu 'Ubaida is from Al-Haffa, which is a dry and crumbled washcloth, and it is the root of the white moist Bardi, which is eaten. His interpretation of his saying "tahosu" is that you don't have to uproot it, as long as you consume it without seeing it. Abu 'Ubaid said: As for his saying, "Unless you clean yourself with water after defecating or urinating, or cover it with a handful of dirt," he means that you can only consume it during the morning and evening. He said: You are not allowed to gather them from the dead. Abu 'Ubaid said: Mu'adh narrated to us from Ibn 'Awun who said: I saw with Al-Hasan writings from his children that he rewards them with the morning or evening if necessary. The sheikh, may Allah have mercy on him, said: This is the interpretation that Abu 'Ubaid explained, which was narrated by Samura. As for the raised news, it is possible that it was intended and Allah knows best, for the permission of death for them, as long as they do not have the permissible morning or evening or a handful food to survive. And this is what is suitable for their question in the narration of Abu 'Ubaid when will death come to us and with his saying "or cover it with a handful of dirt."
