Narrated By Abu Musa #0003
Abu al-Tayyah reported on the authority of a shaykh (an old man): When Abdullah ibn Abbas came to Basrah, people narrated to him traditions from AbuMusa. Therefore Ibn Abbas wrote to him asking him about certain things. In reply AbuMusa wrote to him saying: One day I was in the company of the Apostle of Allah (pbuh). He wanted to urinate. Then he came to a soft ground at the foot of a wall and urinated. He (the Prophet) then said: If any of you wants to urinate, he should look for a place (like this) for his urination.
Narrated By Anas b. Malik #0004
When the Apostle of Allah (pbuh) entered the toilet, he used to say (before entering) : "O Allah, I seek refuge in thee." This is according to the version of Hammad.

Explaining the variance of the version Abu Dawud says : Shu'bah on the authority of 'Abd al-'Aziz narrated: "O Allah, I seek refuge in Thee," and sometimes he reported: "I take refuge in Allah." Wuhaib (b. Khalid) (on the authority of 'Abd al-'Aziz) narrated: One should take refuge in Allah.

He then reported: The Apostle of Allah (pbuh) said: You may live for a long time after I am gone, Ruwayfi', so, tell people that if anyone ties his beard or wears round his neck a string to ward off the evil eye, or cleanses himself with animal dung or bone, Muhammad has nothing to do with him.

I was the leader of the delegation of Banu al-Muntafiq or (the narrator doubted) I was among the delegation of Banu al-Muntafiq that came to the Messenger of Allah (pbuh).

It was then prepared. A tray containing dates was then presented to us. (The narrator Qutaybah did not mention the word qina', tray). Then the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) came. He asked: Has anything been served to you or ordered for you? We replied: Yes, Messenger of Allah. While we were sitting in the company of the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) we suddenly saw that a shepherd was driving a herd of sheep to their fold. He had with him a newly-born lamb that was crying. He (the Prophet) asked him: What did it bear, O so and so? He replied: A ewe. He then said: Slaughter for us in its place a sheep. Do not think that we are slaughtering it for you. We have one hundred sheep and we do not want their number to increase. Whenever a ewe is born, we slaughter a sheep in its place. (The narrator says that the Prophet (pbuh) used the word la tahsabanna, do not think). I (the narrator Laqit) then said: Messenger of Allah, I have a wife who has something (wrong) in her tongue, i.e. she is insolent. He said: Then divorce her. I said: Messenger of Allah, she had company with me and I have children from her. He said: Then ask her (to obey you). If there is something good in her, she will do so (obey); and do not beat your wife as you beat your slave-girl. I said: Messenger of Allah, tell me about ablution. He said: Perform ablution in full and make the fingers go through the beard and snuff with water well except when you are fasting.

The Prophet (may peace be upon him) made his camel kneel down and (went to) relieve himself. He then came back and I poured water upon his hands from the skin vessel. He then washed his hands and face. He tried to get his forearms out (of the gown), but the sleeves of the gown were too narrow, so he entered back both his hands, and brought them out from beneath the gown. He washed his forearms up to the elbows and wiped his head and wiped over his socks. He then mounted (his camel) and we began to proceed until we found people offering the prayer. They brought forward 'Abd al-Rahman b. 'Awf who was leading them in prayer, starting it at the proper time. He had already completed a rak'ah of the dawn prayer. The Prophet (may peace be upon him) stood in the row side by side with other Muslims. He performed the second rak'ah of the prayer behind 'Abd al-Rahman b. 'Awf. Then 'Abd al--Rahman uttered salutation. The Prophet (may peace be upon him) stood to perform the remaining rak'ah of the prayer. The Muslims were alarmed. They began to utter tasbih (Subhan Allah) presuming that they had offered prayer before the Prophet (may peace be upon him) had done.

I said: Apostle of Allah, I am a woman who menstruates in great quantity and it is severe, so what do you think about it? It has prevented me from praying and fasting. He said: I suggest that you should use cotton, for it absorbs the blood. She replied: It is too copious for that. He said: Then take a cloth. She replied: It is too copious for that, for my blood keeps flowing. The Apostle of Allah (pbuh) said: I shall give you two commands; whichever of them you follow, that will be sufficient for you without the other, but you know best whether you are strong enough to follow both of them. He added: This is a stroke of the Devil, so observe your menses for six or seven days, Allah alone knows which it should be; then wash. And when you see that you are purified and quite clean, pray during twenty-three or twenty-four days and nights and fast, for that will be enough for you, and do so every month, just as women menstruate and are purified at the time of their menstruation and their purification. But if you are strong enough to delay the noon (Zuhr) prayer and advance the afternoon ('Asr) prayer, to wash, and then combine the noon and the afternoon prayer; to delay the sunset prayer and advance the night prayer, to wash, and then combine the two prayers, do so: and to wash at dawn, do so: and fast if you are able to do so if possible; The Apostle of Allah (pbuh) said: Of the two commands this is more to my liking.

Umayyah, daughter of AbusSalt, quoted a certain woman of Banu Ghifar, whose name was mentioned to me, as saying: The Apostle of Allah (pbuh) made me ride behind him on the rear of the camel saddle. By Allah, the Apostle of Allah (pbuh) got down in the morning. He made his camel kneel down and I came down from the back of his saddle. There was a mark of blood on it (saddle) and that was the first menstruation that I had. I stuck to the camel and felt ashamed. When the Apostle of Allah (pbuh) saw what had happened to me and saw the blood, he said: Perhaps you are menstruating. I said: Yes. He then said: Set yourself right (i.e. tie some cloth to prevent bleeding), then take a vessel of water and put some salt in it, and then wash the blood from the back of the saddle, and then return to your mount. When the Apostle of Allah (pbuh) conquered Khaybar, he gave us a portion of the booty. Whenever the woman became purified from her menses, she would put salt in water. And when she died, she left a will to put salt in the water for washing her (after death).

The Apostle of Allah (pbuh) encamped at Ulat al-Jaysh and 'Aisha was in his company. Her necklace of onyx of Zifar was broken (and fell somewhere). The people were detained to make a search for that necklace until the dawn broke. There was no water with the people, therefore Abu Bakr became angry with her and said: You detained the people and they have no water with them. Thereupon Allah, the Exalted, sent down revelation about it to His Apostle (pbuh) granting concession to purify themselves with pure earth. Then the Muslims stood up with the Apostle of Allah (pbuh) and struck the ground with their hands and then they raised their hands, and did not take any earth (in their hands). Then they wiped with them their faces and hands up to the shoulders, and from their palms up to the armpits.
Narrated By Amr ibn al-'As #0334
I had a sexual dream on a cold night in the battle of Dhat as-Salasil. I was afraid, if I washed I would die. I, therefore, performed tayammum and led my companions in the dawn prayer. They mentioned that to the Apostle of Allah (pbuh). He said: Amr, you led your companions is prayer while you were sexually defiled? I informed him of the cause which impeded me from washing. And I said: I heard Allah say: "Do not kill yourself, verily Allah is merciful to you." The Apostle of Allah (pbuh) laughed and did not say anything. Abu Dawud said: 'Abd al-Rahman b. Jubair is an Egyptian and a freed slave of Kharijah b. Hudhafah. He is not Jubair b. Nufair.

Then he led them in prayer. He then narrated the tradition in a simmilar way but did not make a mention pf tayammum. Abu Dawud said: This incident has also been narrated by al-Awaza'i on the authority of Hassan b. 'Atiyyah. This version has the words: then he performed tayammaum.
Narrated By Jabir #0336
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 travellers: Do you find 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 o the Prophet (pbuh), 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 of ignorance is inquiry. It was enough for him to perform tayammum and to pour some drops of water or to 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.
Narrated By Abdullah ibn Abbas #0337
A man was injured during the lifetime of the Apostle of Allah (pbuh); he then had a sexual dream, and he was advised to wash and he washed himself. Consequently he died.

Narrated By Abu Sa'id al-khudri #0338
Two persons set out on a journey. Meanwhile the time of prayer came and they had no water. They performed tayammum with clean earth and prayed. Later on they found water withen the time of prayer. One of them repeated the prayer and ablution but the other did not repeat. Then they came to the Apostle of Allah (pbuh) and related the matter to him. Addressing himself to the one who did not repeat, he said: You followed the sunnah (model behaviour of the Prophet) and your (first) prayer was enough for you. He said to the one who performed the ablution and repeated: For you there is double reward. Abu Dawud said: Besides Ibn Nafi' this is transmitted by al-Laith from 'Umairah b. Abi Najiyyah from Bakr b. Sawdah on the authority of 'Ata' b. Yasar from the Prophet (pbuh). Abu Dawud said: The mention of (the name of Companion) Abu Sa'id in this tradition is not guarded. This is a mursal tradition (i.e. the Successor 'Ata' b. Yasar directly narrates it from the Prophet, leaving the name of the Companions in the chain).

Some people of iraq came and said: Ibn 'Abbas, do you regard taking a bath on Friday as obligatory? He said: No, it is only a means of cleanliness, and it is better for one who washes oneself. Anyone who does not take a bath, it is not essential for him. I inform you how the bath (on Friday) commenced. The people were poor and used to wear woollen clothes, and would carry loads on their backs. Their mosque was small and its roof was lowered down. It was a sort of trelis of vine. The Apostle of Allah (pbuh) once came out on a hot day and the people perspired profusely in woollen clothes so much so that the foul smell emitted from them and it caused trouble to each other. When the Apostle of Allah (pbuh) found that foul smell, he said: O people, when this day (Friday) comes, you should take a bath and everyone of you should anoint the best oil and perfume one has. Ibn 'Abbas then said: Then Allah, the Exalted, provided wealth (to the people) and they wore clothes other than the woollen, and were spared from work, and their mosque became vast. The foul smell that caused trouble to them became non-existent.
