bayhaqi:668Abū Bakr b. al-Ḥārith al-Faqīh > Abū Muḥammad b. Ḥayyān > ʿAlī Abū al-Ḥusan b. Zāṭiyā > Dāwud b. Rushayd > Muṭarrif b. Māzin > Isḥāq b. ʿAbdullāh b. Abū al-Mujālid > Abū al-Ḥakam al-Dimashqī > ʿUbādah b. Nusay > ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. Ghanm al-Ashʿarī > Muʿādh b. Jabal

[Machine] He said, "Wudu (ablution) is not from nosebleeds, vomiting, touching the penis, or what the fire touches with obligation."

We used to call washing the hands and mouth ablution, but it is not obligatory. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ only commanded the believers to wash their hands and mouths from what the fire touches, and it is not obligatory. Mu'tarrif bin Mazen spoke about it, and Allah knows best."  

البيهقي:٦٦٨أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ الْفَقِيهُ أنا أَبُو مُحَمَّدِ بْنُ حَيَّانَ ثنا عَلِيٌّ أَبُو الْحُسَنِ بْنُ زَاطِيَا ثنا دَاوُدُ بْنُ رُشَيْدٍ ثنا مُطَرِّفُ بْنُ مَازِنَ حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي الْمُجَالِدِ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَكَمِ الدِّمَشْقِيِّ أَنَّ عُبَادَةَ بْنَ نُسَيٍّ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ غَنْمٍ الْأَشْعَرِيِّ عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ

أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَيْسَ الْوُضُوءُ مِنَ الرُّعَافِ وَالْقَيْءِ وَمَسِّ الذَّكَرِ وَمَا مَسَّتِ النَّارُ بِوَاجِبٍ فَقِيلَ لَهُ إِنَّ أُنَاسًا يَقُولُونَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ تَوَضَّئُوا مِمَّا مَسَّتِ النَّارُ فَقَالَ إِنَّ قَوْمًا سَمِعُوا وَلَمْ يَعُوا كُنَّا نُسَمِّي غَسْلَ الْيَدِ وَالْفَمِ وُضُوءًا وَلَيْسَ بِوَاجِبٍ وَإِنَّمَا أَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَنْ يَغْسِلُوا أَيْدِيَهُمْ وَأَفْوَاهَهُمْ مِمَّا مَسَّتِ النَّارُ وَلَيْسَ بِوَاجِبٍ مُطَرِّفُ بْنُ مَازِنٍ تَكَلَّمُوا فِيهِ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ
