Chapter on the Purity of a Muslim Alive or Dead
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 473 — on the Purity of a Muslim Alive or Dead
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: لَقِيتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَأَنَا جُنُبٌ، فَمَشَيْتُ مَعَهُ حَتَّى قَعَدَ، فَانْسَلَلْتُ فَأَتَيْتُ الرَّحْلَ فَاغْتَسَلْتُ ثُمَّ جِئْتُ وَهُوَ قَاعِدٌ فَقَالَ: ((أَيْنَ كُنْتَ؟)) فَقُلْتُ: لَقِيتَنِي وَأَنَا جُنُبٌ فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أَجْلِسَ إِلَيْكَ وَأَنَا جُنُبٌ فَانْطَلَقْتُ فَاغْتَسَلْتُ، فَقَالَ: ((سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ، إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ لَا يَنْجُسُ))
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that he says: I met the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, while I was in a state of major ritual impurity (janabah). Nevertheless, I walked along with him until he sat down, and I slipped away from there, went home, performed ghusl (ritual bath), and then came back to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, while he was still sitting. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, asked: "Where were you?" I said: "You met me while I was in a state of janabah, and I disliked sitting with you in that state, so I went and performed ghusl." The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Subhan Allah! Indeed, a believer is never impure."
