ذِكْرُ الْإِبَاحَةِ لِلْعَزَبِ أَنْ يَنَامَ فِي مَسَاجِدِ الْجَمَاعَاتِ

ibnhibban:1656al-Ḥasan b. Sufyān > Ḥarmalah b. Yaḥyá > Ibn Wahb > Yūnus > Ibn Shihāb > Ḥamzah b. ʿAbdullāh b. ʿUmar

I used to sleep in the mosque in the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when I was young and bachelor. The dogs would urinate frequently visit the mosque, and no one would sprinkle over it. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 382)  

ابن حبّان:١٦٥٦أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي حَمْزَةُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ قَالَ

ابْنُ عُمَرَ «كُنْتُ أَبِيتُ فِي مَسْجِدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَكُنْتُ فَتًى شَابًّا عَزَبًا وَكَانَتِ الْكِلَابُ تَبُولُ وَتُقْبِلُ وَتُدْبِرُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَلَمْ يَكُونُوا يَرُشُّونَ شَيْئًا مِنْ ذَلِكَ»

كَانَتِ الْكِلاَبُ تَبُولُ وَتُقْبِلُ وَتُدْبِرُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فِي زَمَانِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمْ يَكُونُوا يَرُشُّونَ شَيْئًا مِنْ ذَلِكَ
