مُسْنَدُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ
Musnad of Abdullah bin Mas'ud
Musnad Abi Ya'la 5336 — Abu Ishaq (may Allah have mercy on him)
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو خَيْثَمَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ ، قَالَ : لَيْسَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ ذَكَرَهُ ، وَلَكِنْ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ الْأَسْوَدِ ، أُرَاهُ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ ، قَالَ : أَتَى النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - الْغَائِطَ وَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ آتِيَهُ بِثَلَاثَةِ أَحْجَارٍ ، فَأَخَذْتُ حَجَرَيْنِ وَالْتَمَسْتُ الثَّالِثَ فَلَمْ أَجِدْهُ ، فَأَخَذْتُ رَوْثَةً فَأَتَيْتُ بِهِنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ، فَأَخَذَ الْحَجَرَيْنِ وَأَلْقَى الرَّوْثَةَ ، وَقَالَ : هَذِهِ رِكْسٌ .
Abu Ishaq (may Allah have mercy on him) relates that it was not Abu Ubaydah (may Allah have mercy on him) who mentioned it, but Abd al-Rahman bin al-Aswad (may Allah have mercy on him), and I think he narrated it from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him): "The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went to relieve himself and ordered me to bring him three stones for cleaning himself (istinja). I found two stones but could not find the third, so I picked up a dry piece of dung and brought them all to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He (peace and blessings be upon him) took the two stones, threw away the dung and said: 'This is filth (riks).'"
