Mukhtasar Bukhari

Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) met him in one of the streets of Madinah, and Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) was in a state of janabah. (He says:) So I slipped away from him and went to perform ghusl. Then I came back, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "O Abu Hurairah! Where did you go?" Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I was in a state of janabah and I disliked sitting with you in a state of impurity. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Subhan Allah! A believer is never impure."
