Chapter 34: Whosoever considers not to repeat ablution except if something is discharged or passed from exit (front or back private parts) - كتاب الوضوء
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "A person is considered in prayer as long as he is waiting for the prayer in the
mosque as long as he does not do Hadath." A non-Arab man asked, "O Abu Huraira! What is
Hadath?" I replied, "It is the passing of wind (from the anus) (that is one of the types of Hadath).

I used to get emotional urethral discharges frequently and felt shy to ask Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) about it. So I
requested Al-Miqdad bin Al-Aswad to ask (the Prophet (ﷺ) ) about it. Al-Miqdad asked him and he
replied, "One has to perform ablution (after it)."

حَدَّثَنَا سَعْدُ بْنُ حَفْصٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ، عَنْ يَحْيَى، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، أَنَّ عَطَاءَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنْ زَيْدَ بْنَ خَالِدٍ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ، سَأَلَ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قُلْتُ أَرَأَيْتَ إِذَا جَامَعَ فَلَمْ يُمْنِ قَالَ عُثْمَانُ يَتَوَضَّأُ كَمَا يَتَوَضَّأُ لِلصَّلاَةِ، وَيَغْسِلُ ذَكَرَهُ. قَالَ عُثْمَانُ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم. فَسَأَلْتُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ عَلِيًّا، وَالزُّبَيْرَ، وَطَلْحَةَ، وَأُبَىَّ بْنَ كَعْبٍ ـ رضى الله عنهم ـ فَأَمَرُوهُ بِذَلِكَ.
I asked `Uthman bin `Affan about a person who engaged in intercourse but did no discharge. `Uthman
replied, "He should perform ablution like the one for an ordinary prayer but he must wash his penis."
`Uthman added, "I heard it from Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)." I asked `Ali Az-Zubair, Talha and Ubai bin Ka`b
about it and they, too, gave the same reply. (This order was canceled later on and taking a bath
became necessary for such cases).

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) sent for a Ansari man who came with water dropping from his head. The Prophet (ﷺ) said,
"Perhaps we have forced you to hurry up, haven't we?" The Ansari replied, "Yes." Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)
further said, "If you are forced to hurry up (during intercourse) or you do not discharge then ablution
is due on you (This order was canceled later on, i.e. one has to take a bath).
"When Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) departed from `Arafat, he turned towards a mountain pass where he answered
the call of nature. (After he had finished) I poured water and he performed ablution and then I said to
him, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Will you offer the prayer?" He replied, "The Musalla (place of the prayer) is
ahead of you (in Al-Muzdalifa).
I was in the company of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) on one of the journeys and he went out to answer the call of

and passed his wet hand over his head and over the two Khuff (socks made from thick fabric or
leather).

That he stayed overnight in the house of Maimuna the wife of the Prophet, his aunt. He added : I lay
on the bed (cushion transversally) while Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and his wife lay in the lengthwise direction of
the cushion. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) slept till the middle of the night, either a bit before or a bit after it and
then woke up, rubbing the traces of sleep off his face with his hands. He then, recited the last ten
verses of Sura Al-`Imran, got up and went to a hanging water-skin. He then Performed the ablution
from it and it was a perfect ablution, and then stood up to offer the prayer. I, too, got up and did as the
Prophet had done. Then I went and stood by his side. He placed his right hand on my head and caught
my right ear and twisted it. He prayed two rak`at then two rak`at and two rak`at and then two rak`at
and then two rak`at and then two rak`at (separately six times), and finally one rak`a (the witr). Then he
lay down again in the bed till the Mu'adh-dhin came to him where upon the Prophet (ﷺ) got up, offered a
two light rak`at prayer and went out and led the Fajr prayer.
I came to `Aisha the wife of the Prophet (ﷺ) during the solar eclipse. The people were standing and
offering the prayer and she was also praying. I asked her, "What is wrong with the people?" She
beckoned with her hand towards the sky and said, "Subhan Allah." I asked her, "Is there a sign?" She
pointed out, "Yes." So I, too, stood for the prayer till I fell unconscious and later on I poured water on
my head. After the prayer, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) praised and glorified Allah and said, "Just now I have seen
something which I never saw before at this place of mine, including Paradise and Hell. I have been
inspired (and have understood) that you will be put to trials in your graves and these trials will be like
the trials of Ad-Dajjal, or nearly like it (the sub narrator is not sure of what Asma' said). Angels will
come to every one of you and ask, 'What do you know about this man?' A believer will reply, 'He is
Muhammad, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) , and he came to us with self-evident truth and guidance. So we accepted
his teaching, believed and followed him.' Then the angels will say to him to sleep in peace as they
have come to know that he was a believer. On the other hand a hypocrite or a doubtful person will
reply, 'I do not know but heard the people saying something and so I said the same.' "
A person asked `Abdullah bin Zaid who was the grandfather of `Amr bin Yahya, "Can you show me
how Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to perform ablution?" `Abdullah bin Zaid replied in the affirmative and
asked for water. He poured it on his hands and washed them twice, then he rinsed his mouth thrice and
washed his nose with water thrice by putting water in it and blowing it out. He washed his face thrice
and after that he washed his forearms up to the elbows twice and then passed his wet hands over his
head from its front to its back and vice versa (beginning from the front and taking them to the back of
his head up to the nape of the neck and then brought them to the front again from where he had
started) and washed his feet (up to the ankles).
My father saw `Amr bin Abi Hasan asking `Abdullah bin Zaid about the ablution of the Prophet.
`Abdullah bin Zaid asked for earthenware pot containing water and in front of them performed
ablution like that of the Prophet (ﷺ) . He poured water from the pot over his hand and washed his hands
thrice and then he put his hands in the pot and rinsed his mouth and washed his nose by putting water
in it and then blowing it out with three handfuls of water. Again he put his hand in the water and
washed his face thrice and washed his forearms up to the elbows twice; and then put his hands in the
water and then passed them over his head by bringing them to the front and then to the rear of the
head once, and then he washed his feet up to the ankles.

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) came to us at noon and water for ablution was brought to him. After he had performed
ablution, the remaining water was taken by the people and they started smearing their bodies with it
(as a blessed thing). The Prophet (ﷺ) offered two rak`at of the Zuhr prayer and then two rak`at of the `Asr
prayer while a short spear (or stick) was there (as a Sutra) in front of him.

from his family's well while he was a boy, and `Urwa (on the authority of Al-Miswar and others) who
testified each other, said, "Whenever the Prophet (ﷺ) , performed ablution, his companions were nearly
fighting for the remains of the water."
My aunt took me to the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! This son of my sister has got a disease
in his legs." So he passed his hands on my head and prayed for Allah's blessings for me; then he
performed ablution and I drank from the remaining water. I stood behind him and saw the seal of
Prophethood between his shoulders, and it was like the "Zir-al-Hijla" (means the button of a small
tent, but some said 'egg of a partridge.' etc.)

"During the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) men and women used to perform ablution together."
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) came to visit me while I was sick and unconscious. He performed ablution and
sprinkled the remaining water on me and I became conscious and said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! To whom
will my inheritance go as I have neither ascendants nor descendants?" Then the Divine verses
regarding Fara'id (inheritance) were revealed.
It was the time for prayer, and those whose houses were near got up and went to their people (to
perform ablution), and there remained some people (sitting). Then a painted stove pot (Mikhdab)
containing water was brought to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)s The pot was small, not broad enough for one to
spread one's hand in; yet all the people performed ablution. (The sub narrator said, "We asked Anas,
'How many persons were you?' Anas replied 'We were eighty or more"). (It was one of the miracles of
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)).
Once Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) came to us and we brought out water for him in a brass pot. He performed
ablution thus: He washed his face thrice, and his forearms to the elbows twice, then passed his wet
hands lightly over the head from front to rear and brought them to front again and washed his feet (up
to the ankles).

When the ailment of the Prophet (ﷺ) became aggravated and his disease became severe, he asked his
wives to permit him to be nursed (treated) in my house. So they gave him the permission. Then the
Prophet came (to my house) with the support of two men, and his legs were dragging on the ground,
between `Abbas, and another man." 'Ubaidullah (the sub narrator) said, "I informed `Abdullah bin
`Abbas of what `Aisha said. Ibn `Abbas said: 'Do you know who was the other man?' I replied in the
negative. Ibn `Abbas said, 'He was `Ali (bin Abi Talib)." `Aisha further said, "When the Prophet (ﷺ) came
to my house and his sickness became aggravated he ordered us to pour seven skins full of water on
him, so that he might give some advice to the people. So he was seated in a Mikhdab (brass tub)
belonging to Hafsa, the wife of the Prophet. Then, all of us started pouring water on him from the
water skins till he beckoned to us to stop and that we have done (what he wanted us to do). After that
he went out to the people."
(on the authority of his father) My uncle used to perform ablution extravagantly and once he asked
`Abdullah bin Zaid to tell him how he had seen the Prophet (ﷺ) performing ablution. He asked for an
earthenware pot containing water, and poured water from it on his hands and washed them thrice, and
then put his hand in the earthenware pot and rinsed his mouth and washed his nose by putting water in
it and then blowing it out thrice with one handful of water; he again put his hand in the water and
took a handful of water and washed his face thrice, then washed his hands up to the elbows twice, and
took water with his hand, and passed it over his head from front to back and then from back to front,
and then washed his feet (up to the ankles) and said, "I saw the Prophet (ﷺ) performing ablution in that
way."
Anas said, "The Prophet (ﷺ) asked for water and a tumbler with a broad base and no so deep, containing a
small quantity of water, was brought to him whereby he put his fingers in it." Anas further said, '
noticed the water springing out from amongst his fingers." Anas added, ' estimated that the people
who performed ablution with it numbered between seventy to eighty."
