حَدَّثَنَا
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا
عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ ، عَنْ
دَاوُدَ بْنِ صَالِحِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ التَّمَّارِ ، عَنْ
أُمِّهِ ، أَنَّ مَوْلَاتَهَا أَرْسَلَتْهَا بِهَرِيسَةٍ إِلَى
عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا فَوَجَدَتْهَا تُصَلِّي ، فَأَشَارَتْ إِلَيَّ أَنْ ضَعِيهَا ، فَجَاءَتْ هِرَّةٌ فَأَكَلَتْ مِنْهَا ، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَتْ أَكَلَتْ مِنْ حَيْثُ أَكَلَتِ الْهِرَّةُ ، فَقَالَتْ : إِنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " إِنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ بِنَجَسٍ ، إِنَّمَا هِيَ مِنَ الطَّوَّافِينَ عَلَيْكُمْ " ، وَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَتَوَضَّأُ بِفَضْلِهَا .
Narrated Aishah, Ummul Muminin: Dawud ibn Salih ibn Dinar at-Tammar quoted his mother as saying that her mistress sent her with some pudding (harisah) to Aishah who was offering prayer. She made a sign to me to place it down. A cat came and ate some of it, but when Aishah finished her prayer, she ate from the place where the cat had eaten. She stated: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: It is not unclean: it is one of those who go round among you. She added: I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ performing ablution from the water left over by the cat.
