[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ led us in the Fajr prayer in the mosque of Madinah. After he finished, he asked, "Who among you will accompany me to the delegation of the jinn tonight?" The people remained silent, and no one spoke except for me. He repeated the question three times, and then he passed by me while walking, and he took my hand. I started walking with him until the mountains of Madinah were behind us, and we reached a barren land. Suddenly, tall men appeared, looking like arrows with their clothes tied tightly around their legs. When I saw them, I felt intense fear, to the point that my legs could not carry me. When we approached them, the Messenger of Allah drew a line in the ground with his big toe and said to me, "Sit in the middle of it." When I sat down, everything that used to trouble me disappeared. The Prophet ﷺ went ahead of me and recited the Quran beautifully until dawn. Then he turned back towards me and said, "Come on." I started walking with him, and we were not far away when he said to me, "Turn around and see if you can still see them." I replied, "O Messenger of Allah, I see a multitude of people." The Messenger of Allah lowered his head to the ground and collected some soil with his hand, then threw it towards them saying, "That was the group of people from the delegation who asked me for provisions, so I provided them with every bone and piece of flesh." Zubayr said, "From then on, it is not permissible for anyone to perform istinja with bones or pieces of flesh."

صَلَّى بِنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ صَلَاةَ الصُّبْحِ فِي مَسْجِدِ الْمَدِينَةِ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ «أَيُّكُمْ يَتْبَعُنِي إِلَى وَفْدِ الْجِنِّ اللَّيْلَةَ؟» فَأَسْكَتَ الْقَوْمُ فَلَمْ يَتَكَلَّمْ مِنْهُمْ أَحَدٌ قَالَ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثًا فَمَرَّ بِي يَمْشِي فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي فَجَعَلْتُ أَمْشِي مَعَهُ حَتَّى خَنَسَتْ عَنَّا جِبَالُ الْمَدِينَةِ كُلُّهَا وَأُقْصِينَا إِلَى أَرْضٍ قَرَارٍ فَإِذَا رِجَالٌ طُوَالٌ كَأَنَّهُمُ الرَّمَاحُ مُسْتَدْفِرِي ثِيَابِهِمْ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَرْجُلِهِمْ فَلَمَّا رَأَيْتُهُمْ غَشِيَتْنِي رِعْدَةٌ شَدِيدَةٌ حَتَّى مَا يُمْسِكُنِي رِجْلَايَ مِنَ الْفَرَقِ فَلَمَّا دَنَوْنَا مِنْهُمْ خَطَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِإِبْهَامِ رِجْلِهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ خَطًّا فَقَالَ لِي «أُقْعُدْ فِي وَسَطِهِ» فَلَمَّا جَلَسْتُ ذَهَبَ عَنِّي كُلُّ شَيْءٍ أَجِدُهُ مِنْ رِيبَةٍ وَمَضَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بَيْنِي وَبَيْنَهُمْ فَتَلَا قُرْآنًا رفيعًا حَتَّى طَلَعَ الْفَجْرُ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ حَتَّى مَرَّ بِي فَقَالَ لِي «إِلْحَقْ» فَجَعَلْتُ أَمْشِي مَعَهُ فَمَضَيْنَا غَيْرَ بَعِيدٍ فَقَالَ لِي «الْتَفِتْ فَانْظُرْ هَلْ تَرَى حَيْثُ كَانَ أُولَئِكَ مِنْ أَحَدٍ؟» فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَرَى سَوَادًا كَثِيرًا فَخَفَضَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ رَأْسَهُ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ فَنَظَمَ عَظْمًا بِرَوْثَةٍ ثُمَّ رَمَى بِهِ إِلَيْهِمْ وَقَالَ «رَشَدَ أُولَئِكَ مِنْ وَفْدِ قَوْمٍ هُمْ وَفْدُ نَصِيبِينَ سَأَلُونِي الزَّادَ فَجَعَلْتُ لَهُمْ كُلَّ عَظْمٍ وَرَوْثَةٍ» قَالَ الزُّبَيْرُ «فَلَا يَحِلُّ لِأَحَدٍ أَنْ يَسْتَنْجِيَ بِعَظْمٍ وَلَا رَوْثَةٍ أَبَدًا»
