Book 5: The Book of Ghusl (Washing of the Whole Body)

كِتَاب الْغُسْل

Chapter 29

(29) Chapter. Washing away what comes out from the private parts of a woman (woman’s discharge) if one gets soiled with that.

29- بَابُ غَسْلِ مَا يُصِيبُ مِنْ فَرْجِ الْمَرْأَةِ:

English narration

Narrated by أبو أيوب الأنصاري

I asked `Uthman bin `Affan about a man who engaged in the sexual intercourse with his wife but did not discharge. `Uthman replied, "He should perform ablution like that for the prayer after washing his private parts." `Uthman added, "I heard that from Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)." I asked `Ali bin Abi Talib, Az- Zubair bin Al-`Awwam, Talha bin 'Ubaidullah and Ubai bin Ka`b and they gave the same reply. (Abu Aiyub said that he had heard that from Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ) (This order was canceled later on so one has to take a bath. See, Hadith No. 180).

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْمَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ ، عَنْ الْحُسَيْنِ ، قَالَ يَحْيَى : وَأَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ ، أَنَّ عَطَاءَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ أَخْبَرَهُ ، أَنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ خَالِدٍ الْجُهَنِيَّ أَخْبَرَهُ ، أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ ، فَقَالَ : أَرَأَيْتَ إِذَا جَامَعَ الرَّجُلُ امْرَأَتَهُ فَلَمْ يُمْنِ ، قَالَ عُثْمَانُ : "

يَتَوَضَّأُ كَمَا يَتَوَضَّأُ لِلصَّلَاةِ وَيَغْسِلُ ذَكَرَهُ

" ، قَالَ عُثْمَانُ : سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَسَأَلْتُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ، وَالزُّبَيْرَ بْنَ الْعَوَّامِ ، وَطَلْحَةَ بْنَ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ ، وَأُبَيَّ بْنَ كَعْبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ فَأَمَرُوهُ بِذَلِكَ ، قَالَ يَحْيَى : وَأَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو سَلَمَةَ ، أَنَّ عُرْوَةَ بْنَ الزُّبَيْرِ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ أَبَا أَيُّوبَ أَخْبَرَهُ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ ذَلِكَ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ .
