3. Book of Purification
٣۔ كِتَابُ الطَّهَارَةِ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said during his illness in which he died, "Pour seven buckets of water over me." "Both chains of narrations are authentic according to the conditions of the two Sheikhs."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي مَرَضِهِ الَّذِي مَاتَ فِيهِ «صُبُّوا عَلَيَّ مِنْ سَبْعِ قِرَبٍ» «كِلَا الْإِسْنَادَيْنِ صَحِيحٌ عَلَى شَرْطِ الشَّيْخَيْنِ»
ʿAbdur-Rahman bin Abi Bakr came holding a Siwak with which he was cleaning his teeth. Allah's Apostle looked at him. I requested ʿAbdur-Rahman to give the Siwak to me and after he gave it to me I divided it, chewed it and gave it to Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Then he cleaned his teeth with it and (at that time) he was resting against my chest. (Using translation from Bukhārī 890)
«دَخَلَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَمَعَهُ سِوَاكٌ يَسْتَنُّ بِهِ» فَقُلْتُ لَهُ «أَعْطِنِي هَذَا السِّوَاكَ يَا عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ فَأَعْطَانِيهِ فَقَضَمْتُهُ ثُمَّ مَضَغْتُهُ فَأَعْطَيْتُهُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَاسْتَنَّ بِهِ وَهُوَ مُسْتَنِدٌ إِلَى صَدْرِي»
"The Messenger of Allah used to pray in the night (Qiyamul-Lail) two Rak'ah by two, then when he finished he would use the tooth stick." (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 288)
«كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي رَكْعَتَيْنِ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ ثُمَّ يَنْصَرِفُ فَيَسْتَاكُ»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, said: "The merit of the prayer which is performed in congregation is seventy times greater than the prayer which is performed individually."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «فَضْلُ الصَّلَاةِ الَّتِي يُسْتَاكُ لَهَا عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ الَّتِي لَا يُسْتَاكُ لَهَا سَبْعِينَ ضِعْفًا»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "If it were not difficult for my nation, I would have made it obligatory for them to use the siwak (tooth stick) with every ablution, and I would have delayed the Isha prayer until half of the night." This is narrated by Abu Hurairah in this chapter, and they did not mention the word "obligatory" in it, and it is authentic according to both of them, and it has no defect. And it has a witness with this wording, as they did not mention the word "made obligatory," and it is according to their requirement and it has no defect.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَوْلَا أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي لَفَرَضْتُ عَلَيْهِمُ السِّوَاكَ مَعَ الْوُضُوءِ وَلَأَخَّرْتُ صَلَاةَ الْعِشَاءِ إِلَى نِصْفِ اللَّيْلِ» عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ فِي هَذَا الْبَابِ وَلَمْ يُخَرِّجَا لَفْظَ الْفَرْضِ فِيهِ وَهُوَ صَحِيحٌ عَلَى شَرْطِهِمَا جَمِيعًا وَلَيْسَ لَهُ عِلَّةٌ وَلَهُ شَاهِدٌ بِهَذَا اللَّفْظِ لم يخرجا لفظ فرضت وهو على شرطهما وليس له علة
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "If it were not difficult for my Ummah (followers), I would have made it obligatory for them to use the Siwak (tooth stick) before every prayer, just as I made it obligatory for them to perform ablution before prayer."
أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَوْلَا أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي لَفَرَضْتُ عَلَيْهِمُ السِّوَاكَ عِنْدَ كُلِّ صَلَاةٍ كَمَا فَرَضْتُ عَلَيْهِمُ الْوُضُوءَ»
[Machine] "That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'There is no prayer for one who does not have ablution, and there is no ablution for one who does not mention the name of Allah upon it.' Muhammad bin Isma'il bin Abi Fudayk narrated it from Muhammad bin Musa al-Makhzumi.'"
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا صَلَاةَ لِمَنْ لَا وُضُوءَ لَهُ وَلَا وُضُوءَ لِمَنْ لَمْ يَذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ» رَوَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي فُدَيْكٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُوسَى الْمَخْزُومِيِّ
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: The prayer of a person who does not perform ablution is not valid, and the ablution of a person who does not mention the name of Allah (in the beginning) is not valid. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 101)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا صَلَاةَ لِمَنْ لَا وُضُوءَ لَهُ وَلَا وُضُوءَ لِمَنْ لَمْ يَذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ»
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There is no prayer for someone who does not have ablution, and there is no ablution for someone who does not mention the name of Allah upon it." Ali ibn Bundar Az-Zahid informed me, narrating from Umar ibn Muhammad ibn Jubayr, narrating from Abu Bakr Al-Athram, who said, "I heard Ahmad ibn Hanbal being asked about someone who performs ablution but does not mention (the name of Allah). Ahmad replied, 'The best that can be said about this hadith is what Kathir ibn Zayd has narrated.'"
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا صَلَاةَ لِمَنْ لَا وُضُوءَ لَهُ وَلَا وُضُوءَ لِمَنْ لَمْ يَذْكُرِ اسْمَ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ» فَأَخْبَرَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ بُنْدَارٍ الزَّاهِدُ ثنا عُمَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ثنا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْأَثْرَمُ وَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَحْمَدَ بْنَ حَنْبَلٍ وَسُئِلَ عَمَّنْ يَتَوَضَّأُ وَلَا يُسَمِّي فَقَالَ أَحْمَدُ أَحْسَنُ مَا يُرْوَى فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ كَثِيرُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ
Do you like that I should show you how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed ablution? He then called for a vessel of water and took out a handful of water with his right hand. He then rinsed his mouth and snuffed up water. He then took out another handful of water and washed his face by both his hands together. He then took out another handful of water and washed his right hand and then washed his left hand by taking out another. He then took out some water and shook off his hand and wiped his head and ears with it. He then took out a handful of water and sprinkled it over his right foot in his shoe and wiped the upper part of the foot with his one hand, and beneath the shoe with his other hand. He then did the same with his left foot. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 137)
أَنْ أُرِيَكُمْ كَيْفَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَتَوَضَّأُ «فَدَعَا بِإِنَاءٍ فِيهِ مَاءٌ فَأَغْرَفَ غَرْفَةً فَمَضْمَضَ وَاسْتَنْشَقَ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ أُخْرَى فَجَمَعَ بِهَا يَدَيْهِ فَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ أُخْرَى فَغَسَلَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى ثُمَّ أَخَذَ غَرْفَةً أُخْرَى فَغَسَلَ يَدَهُ الْيُسْرَى ثُمَّ قُبِضَ قَبْضَةً مِنَ الْمَاءِ فَنَفَضَ يَدَهُ فَمَسَحَ بِهَا رَأْسَهُ وَأُذُنَيْهِ ثُمَّ أَغْرَفَ غَرْفَةً أُخْرَى فَرَشَّ عَلَى رِجْلِهِ الْيُمْنَى وَفِيهَا النَّعْلُ وَالْيُسْرَى مِثْلُ ذَلِكَ وَمَسَحَ بِأَسْفَلِ النَّعْلَيْنِ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «هَكَذَا وُضُوءُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ»
[Machine] He came to the Prophet ﷺ and mentioned things, so the Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Make your ablution thoroughly, alternate between your fingers, and when you rinse your nose, do it thoroughly unless you are fasting."
أَنَّهُ أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَذَكَرَ أَشْيَاءَ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَسْبِغِ الْوُضُوءَ وَخَلِّلِ الْأَصَابِعَ وَإِذَا اسْتَنْشَقْتَ فَبَالِغْ إِلَّا أَنْ تَكُونَ صَائِمًا»
