Musnad Ahmad 7409 — Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with)
(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَجْلَانَ ، حَدَّثَنِي الْقَعْقَاعُ بْنُ حَكِيمٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّمَا أَنَا لَكُمْ مِثْلُ الْوَالِدِ ، أُعَلِّمُكُمْ ، فَإِذَا أَتَى أَحَدُكُمْ الْخَلَاءَ ، فَلَا تَسْتَقْبِلُوهَا ، وَلَا تَسْتَدْبِرُوهَا ، وَلَا يَسْتَنْجِي بِيَمِينِهِ " . وَكَانَ يَأْمُرُ بِثَلَاثَةِ أَحْجَارٍ ، وَيَنْهَى عَنِ الرَّوْثِ وَالرِّمَّةِ .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I am like a father to you, so it is my responsibility to teach you. When you go to the toilet, do not sit facing the Qiblah or with your back towards it. Also, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade cleaning oneself with dung and decayed bones, and said: No person should clean himself with his right hand. And the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) used to command cleaning oneself with three stones.
