51. Chapter of Lām (Female) (2/2)
٥١۔ بَابُ اللَّامِ ص ٢
[Machine] She said, "O Messenger of Allah, give us a verdict regarding the dog." He said, "A dog's saliva is impure and Allah has provided us with alternatives."
أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَفْتِنَا عَنِ الْكَلْبِ فَقَالَ «طُعْمَةٌ جَاهِلِيَّةٌ وَقَدْ أَغْنَى الله عَنْهَا»
[Machine] She (the woman) said, "O Messenger of Allah, enlighten us about performing ghusl (ritual purification) from janabah (major impurity)." He (the Prophet) said, "You should pour water on the roots of your hair and cleanse your skin. Surely, those who do not perform ghusl properly are like a tree that has been touched by water, but its leaves do not grow and its roots do not become moist. So, fear Allah and perform ghusl properly, for indeed it is part of the trust that you have been entrusted with and the secrets that have been entrusted to you." She (the woman) said, "I asked, 'How much water is sufficient for washing the head, O Messenger of Allah?' He (the Prophet) said, 'Three handfuls.'"
أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ أَفْتِنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ عَنِ الْغُسْلِ مِنَ الْجَنَابَةِ فَقَالَ تَبُلِّي أُصُولَ الشَّعْرِ وَتُنَقِّي الْبَشَرَ فَإِنَّ مَثَلَ الَّذِينَ لَا يُحْسِنُونَ الْغُسْلَ كَمَثَلِ شَجَرَةٍ أَصَابَهَا مَاءٌ فَلَا وَرَقُهَا يُنْبِتُ وَلَا أَصْلُهَا يُرْوَى فَاتَّقُوا اللهَ وَأَحْسِنُوا الْغُسْلَ فَإِنَّهَا مِنَ الْأَمَانَةِ الَّتِي حُمِّلْتُمْ وَالسَّرَائِرِ الَّتِي اسْتُودِعْتُمْ قَالَتْ قُلْتُ كَمْ يَكْفِي الرَّأْسَ مِنَ الْمَاءِ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ ثَلَاثُ حَفَنَاتٍ
[Machine] I asked, "O Messenger of Allah, can one of us eat while in a state of major ritual impurity?" He replied, "No, one cannot eat until he performs ablution." She then said, "I asked, 'O Messenger of Allah, can one sleep while in a state of major ritual impurity?' He said, 'I do not like sleeping while in a state of major ritual impurity until one performs ablution and perfects his ablution. Indeed, I fear that the soul will be taken away while in that state and Jibril (Angel Gabriel) ﷺ will not be present."
قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ هَلْ يَأْكُلُ أَحَدُنَا وَهُوَ جُنُبٌ؟ قَالَ لَا يَأْكُلُ حَتَّى يَتَوَضَّأَ قَالَتْ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ هَلْ يَرْقُدُ الْجُنُبُ؟ قَالَ «مَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ يَرْقُدَ وَهُوَ جُنُبٌ حَتَّى يَتَوَضَّأَ وَيُحْسِنَ وُضُوءَهُ وَإِنِّي أَخْشَى أَنْ يُتَوَفَّى فَلَا يَحْضُرُهُ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ»
[Machine] She said, "O Messenger of Allah, inform us about the Friday prayer." He said, "In it, there is an hour where the servant does not supplicate to his Lord except that He answers him." I asked, "Which hour is that, O Messenger of Allah?" He said, "It is when the imam stands up [to deliver the sermon]."
أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ أَفْتِنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ عَنْ صَلَاةِ الْجُمُعَةِ قَالَ «فِيهَا سَاعَةٌ لَا يَدْعُو الْعَبْدُ فِيهَا رَبَّهُ إِلَّا اسْتَجَابَ لَهُ» قُلْتُ أَيَّةُ سَاعَةٍ هِيَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ «ذَلِكَ حِينَ يَقُومُ الْإِمَامُ»
[Machine] She said, "Advise us, O Messenger of Allah, concerning a man who becomes confused in his prayer and does not know how many cycles he has prayed?" He replied, "Let him leave and then start his prayer again until he knows how many cycles he has prayed, as this is only a whispering that is presented to him in order to distract him from his prayer."
أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ أَفْتِنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فِي رَجُلٍ سَهَا فِي صَلَاتِهِ فَلَا يَدْرِي كَمْ صَلَّى؟ قَالَ يَنْصَرِفُ ثُمَّ يَقُومُ فِي صَلَاتِهِ حَتَّى يَعْلَمَ كَمْ صَلَّى فَإِنَّمَا ذَلِكَ الْوَسْوَاسُ يَعْرِضُ لَهُ فَيُسَهِّيهِ عَنْ صَلَاتِهِ
[Machine] She asked, "O Messenger of Allah, what is the punishment of the grave?" He said, "From the traces of urine. So whoever is affected by urine, let him wash it off, and if he does not find water, let him wipe it with a clean surface (soil)."
أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ أَفْتِنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مِمَّ عَذَابُ الْقَبْرِ؟ قَالَ «مِنْ أَثَرِ الْبَوْلِ فَمَنْ أَصَابَهُ بَوْلٌ فَلْيَغْسِلْهُ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ مَاءً فَلْيَمْسَحْهُ بِتُرَابٍ طَيِّبٍ»
[Machine] She said, "O Messenger of Allah, what about someone who does not go out for battle but spends his wealth for those who fight? Does he also receive a reward or only the fighter?" The Prophet replied, "He will receive the reward for his wealth, and the fighter will receive the reward for what is attributed to him from that."
أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ أَفْتِنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَنْ لَمْ يَغْزُ وَأَعْطَى مَالَهُ يُغْزَى عَلَيْهِ فَلَهُ أَجْرٌ أَمْ لِلْمُنْطَلِقِ؟ قَالَ لَهُ أَجْرُ مَالِهِ وَلِلْمُنْطَلِقِ أَجْرُ مَا احْتُسِبَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ
“The parable of the woman who walks to impress others in adornments for other than her family, is that of darkness on the Day of Judgment: There is no light for her.” (Using translation from Tirmidhī 1167)
عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ بِنْتِ سَعْدٍ وَكَانَتْ خَادِمًا لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَثَلُ الرَّافِلَةِ فِي الزِّينَةِ فِي غَيْرِ أَهْلِهَا كَمَثَلِ الظُّلْمَةِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ لَا نُورَ لَهَا»
