Hadith 9139

حَدَّثَنَا هَوْذَةُ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَوْفٌ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " إِذَا اسْتَيْقَظَ أَحَدُكُمْ مِنْ نَوْمِهِ فَأَرَادَ الطُّهُورَ ، فَلَا يَضَعَنَّ يَدَهُ فِي الْإِنَاءِ حَتَّى يَغْسِلَهَا ، فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَدْرِي أَيْنَ بَاتَتْ يَدُهُ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When any one of you wakes up from his sleep, he should not put his hand into a vessel until he has washed it, for he does not know where his hand spent the night.
