[Machine] A man contracted chickenpox, so he isolated himself. He washed and then covered himself, but he passed away. The Prophet ﷺ was informed, and he said, "They killed him. May Allah kill them! Wasn't the cure for skin diseases to ask for it to be rubbed on him?"
أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَصَابَهُ جُدَرِيٌّ فَأَجْنَبَ فَغَسَلَ فَكُزَّ فَمَاتَ فَأُخْبِرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «قَتَلُوهُ قَتَلَهُمِ اللهُ أَلَمْ يَكُنْ شِفَاءُ الْعِيِّ السُّؤَالَ أَلَا يَمَّمُوهُ»
A man was injured during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ; he then had a sexual dream, and he was advised to wash and he washed himself. Consequently he died. When this was reported to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ he said: They killed him; may Allah kill them! Is not inquiry the cure of ignorance?
أَصَابَ رَجُلاً جُرْحٌ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ احْتَلَمَ فَأُمِرَ بِالاِغْتِسَالِ فَاغْتَسَلَ فَمَاتَ فَبَلَغَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ قَتَلُوهُ قَتَلَهُمُ اللَّهُ أَلَمْ يَكُنْ شِفَاءُ الْعِيِّ السُّؤَالَ
We set out on a journey. One of our people was hurt by a stone, that injured his head. He then had a sexual dream. He asked his fellow travelers: Do you find a concession for me to perform tayammum? They said: We do not find any concession for you while you can use water. He took a bath and died. When we came to the Prophet ﷺ, the incident was reported to him. He said: They killed him, may Allah kill them! Could they not ask when they did not know? The cure for ignorance is inquiry. It was enough for him to perform tayammum and to pour some drops of water or bind a bandage over the wound (the narrator Musa was doubtful); then he should have wiped over it and washed the rest of his body.
خَرَجْنَا فِي سَفَرٍ فَأَصَابَ رَجُلاً مِنَّا حَجَرٌ فَشَجَّهُ فِي رَأْسِهِ ثُمَّ احْتَلَمَ فَسَأَلَ أَصْحَابَهُ فَقَالَ هَلْ تَجِدُونَ لِي رُخْصَةً فِي التَّيَمُّمِ فَقَالُوا مَا نَجِدُ لَكَ رُخْصَةً وَأَنْتَ تَقْدِرُ عَلَى الْمَاءِ فَاغْتَسَلَ فَمَاتَ فَلَمَّا قَدِمْنَا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ أُخْبِرَ بِذَلِكَ فَقَالَ قَتَلُوهُ قَتَلَهُمُ اللَّهُ أَلاَّ سَأَلُوا إِذْ لَمْ يَعْلَمُوا فَإِنَّمَا شِفَاءُ الْعِيِّ السُّؤَالُ إِنَّمَا كَانَ يَكْفِيهِ أَنْ يَتَيَمَّمَ وَيَعْصِرَ أَوْ يَعْصِبَ شَكَّ مُوسَى عَلَى جُرْحِهِ خِرْقَةً ثُمَّ يَمْسَحَ عَلَيْهَا وَيَغْسِلَ سَائِرَ جَسَدِهِ
"I heard Ibn 'Abbas saying that a man was injured in the head at the time of the Messenger of Allah, then he had a wet dream. He was told to have a bath, so he took the bath, became rigid and stiff, and died. News of that reached the Messenger of Allah and he said: 'They have killed him, may Allah kill them! Is not the cure for a lack of knowledge to ask questions?'"'Ata' said: "We heard that the Messenger of Allah said: 'If only he had washed his body and left his head alone where the wound was.'"
أَنَّ رَجُلاً أَصَابَهُ جُرْحٌ فِي رَأْسِهِ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ أَصَابَهُ احْتِلاَمٌ فَأُمِرَ بِالاِغْتِسَالِ فَاغْتَسَلَ فَكُزَّ فَمَاتَ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ قَتَلُوهُ قَتَلَهُمُ اللَّهُ أَفَلَمْ يَكُنْ شِفَاءَ الْعِيِّ السُّؤَالُ قَالَ عَطَاءٌ وَبَلَغَنَا أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ لَوْ غَسَلَ جَسَدَهُ وَتَرَكَ رَأْسَهُ حَيْثُ أَصَابَهُ الْجِرَاحُ
A man was injured during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ; he then had a sexual dream, and he was advised to wash and he washed himself. Consequently he died. When this was reported to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ he said: They killed him; may Allah kill them! Is not inquiry the cure of ignorance? (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 337)

(Using translation from Ibn Mājah 572)
أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَصَابَهُ جُرْحٌ فِي عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ثُمَّ أَصَابَهُ احْتِلَامٌ فَأُمِرَ بِالِاغْتِسَالِ فَمَاتَ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «قَتَلُوهُ قَتَلَهُمُ اللَّهُ أَلَمْ يَكُنْ شِفَاءَ الْعِيِّ السُّؤَالُ؟» قَالَ عَطَاءٌ بَلَغَنِي أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ سُئِلَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ «لَوْ غَسَلَ جَسَدَهُ وَتَرَكَ رَأْسَهُ حَيْثُ أَصَابَهُ الْجُرْحُ»
[Machine] A man got injured during the time of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ . Then he experienced a wet dream, so he took a bath and died. This news reached the Prophet ﷺ , and he said, "They killed him, may Allah kill them. Wasn't the treatment for a sick eye to ask for a cure?" It has reached us that the Prophet ﷺ was asked about this incident, and he said, "If he had washed his body and left his head where the injury was, it would have been sufficient." Al-Hakam ibn Ziyad narrated this, and he is considered reliable among the companions of Al-Awza'i. However, he did not mention hearing it from Ata.
أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَصَابَهُ جَرْحٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ أَصَابَهُ احْتِلَامٌ فَاغْتَسَلَ فَمَاتَ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ «قَتَلُوهُ قَتَلَهُمُ اللَّهُ أَلَمْ يَكُنْ شِفَاءُ الْعِيِّ السُّؤَالَ» فَبَلَغَنَا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ سُئِلَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ «لَوْ غَسَلَ جَسَدَهُ وَتَرَكَ رَأْسَهُ حَيْثُ أَصَابَهُ الْجَرْحُ» «وَقَدْ رَوَاهُ الْهِقْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ وَهُوَ مِنْ أَثْبَتِ أَصْحَابِ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ سَمَاعَ الْأَوْزَاعِيِّ مِنْ عَطَاءٍ» على شرطهما
[Machine] A man was injured during the time of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and it caused him to have a state of impurity (janabah). He sought advice and was instructed to perform a ritual washing (ghusl), which he did. However, he died afterwards. When the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was informed about this, he said, "They killed him, may Allah kill them. Wasn't the washing of the affected area sufficient for him?" Ata, a companion of the Prophet, reported that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was asked about this incident later on and he replied, "If he had washed his body and left the area affected by the injury, it would have been sufficient for him."
أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَصَابَتْهُ جِرَاحَةٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَصَابَتْهُ جَنَابَةٌ فَاسْتَفْتَى فَأُمِرَ بِالْغُسْلِ فَاغْتَسَلَ فَمَاتَ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «قَتَلُوهُ قَتَلَهُمُ اللَّهُ أَلَمْ يَكُنْ شِفَاءُ الْعِيِّ السُّؤَالَ» قَالَ عَطَاءٌ فَبَلَغَنِي أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ سُئِلَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ «لَوْ غَسَلَ جَسَدَهُ وَتَرَكَ حَيْثُ أَصَابَهُ الْجِرَاحُ أَجْزَأَهُ»
[Machine] A man was injured during the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , then he had a wet dream, so he was ordered to perform ghusl (ritual bath). He performed ghusl and then fainted and died. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was informed about this and he said, "They have killed him, may Allah kill them. Didn't they know that the cure for the eye injury is to ask for it?" Ata'ah (narrator) said, we were informed that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked about this and he said, "If he had washed his body and left his head where the injury was, then this would imply washing the affected part properly and the first narration indicates the obligation of performing tayammum (dry ablution). So, whoever combines both narrations, will say that there is no contradiction between them except that one of them is mursal (an incomplete chain of narration)."
أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَصَابَهُ جُرْحٌ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ أَصَابَهُ احْتِلَامٌ فَأُمِرَ بِالِاغْتِسَالِ فَاغْتَسَلَ فَكُزَّ فَمَاتَ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ قَتَلُوهُ قَتَلَهُمُ اللهُ أَلَمْ يَكُنْ شِفَاءُ الْعِيِّ السُّؤَالَ قَالَ عَطَاءٌ فَبَلَغَنَا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ سُئِلَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ لَوْ غَسَلَ جَسَدَهَ وَتَرَكَ رَأْسَهُ حَيْثُ أَصَابَهُ الْجُرْحُ فَهَذَا الْمُرْسَلُ يُقْتَضَى غُسْلَ الصَّحِيحِ مَنْهُ وَالْأَوْلُ يَقْتَضِي التَّيَمُّمَ فَمَنْ أَوْجَبَ الْجَمْعَ بَيْنَهُمَا يَقُولُ لَا تَنَافِيَ بَيْنَ الرِّوَايَتَيْنِ إِلَّا أَنَّ إِحْدَاهُمَا مُرْسَلَةٌ
