(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ وَابْنُ بَكْرٍ ، قَالَا : أَخْبَرَنَا
ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ ، أَنَّ
سُلَيْمَانَ بْنَ يَسَارٍ أخْبَرَهُ ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ
ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ، وَرَأَى أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَتَوَضَّأُ ، فَقَالَ : أَتَدْرِي مِمَّا أَتَوَضَّأُ ؟ قَالَ : لَا . قَالَ : أَتَوَضَّأُ مِنْ أَثْوَارِ أَقِطٍ أَكَلْتُهَا ، قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ : مَا أُبَالِي مِمَّا تَوَضَّأْتَ ، " أَشْهَدُ لَرَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَكَلَ كَتِفَ لَحْمٍ ، ثُمَّ قَامَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ وَمَا تَوَضَّأَ " . قَالَ : وَسُلَيْمَانُ حَاضِرٌ ذَلِكَ مِنْهُمَا جَمِيعًا .
Once, Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) saw Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) performing ablution. He asked, "Do you know on what basis I am performing ablution?" Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) replied in the negative. He (Abu Hurairah) said, "I ate some pieces of cheese, so I am performing ablution because of that." Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said, "I do not care about the reason for which you are performing ablution, because I am an eyewitness that I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) eating the meat of the foreleg, after which he stood up for prayer and did not perform ablution." The narrator of the hadith, Sulaiman bin Yasar, used to attend to the service of both these companions (may Allah be pleased with them).
