باب الغسل - ذكر خبر قد يوهم غير المتبحر في صناعة العلم أنه مضاد لخبر أبي مرة الذي ذكرناه
Chapter on Ghusl – Report that may mislead the unskilled in hadith science into thinking it contradicts Abu Murrah’s narration
Hadith 1189
أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ خُزَيْمَةَ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ بِشْرِ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنِ ابْنِ طَاوُسٍ ، عَنِ الْمُطَّلِبِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ حَنْطَبٍ ، عَنْ أُمِّ هَانِئٍ ، قَالَتْ : " نَزَلَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، بِأَعْلَى مَكَّةَ ، فَأَتَيْتُهُ ، فَجَاءَهُ أَبُو ذَرٍّ بِجَفْنَةٍ فِيهَا مَاءٍ ، قَالَتْ : إِنِّي لأَرَى فِيهَا أَثَرَ الْعَجِينِ ، قَالَتْ : فَسَتَرَهُ أَبُو ذَرٍّ ، فَاغْتَسَلَ ، ثُمَّ سَتَرَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أَبَا ذَرٍّ ، فَاغْتَسَلَ ، ثُمَّ صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَمَانَ رَكَعَاتٍ وَذَلِكَ فِي الضُّحَى " . قَالَ أَبُو حَاتِمٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ : يُشْبِهُ أَنْ يَكُونَ الْمُصْطَفَى صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَيْثُ اغْتَسَلَ يَوْمَ الْفَتْحِ ، سَتَرْتَهُ فَاطِمَةُ ابْنَتُهُ ، وَأَبُو ذَرٍّ جَمِيعًا بِثَوْبٍ ، فَأَدَّى أَبُو مُرَّةَ مَوْلَى أُمِّ هَانِئٍ الْخَبَرَ بِذِكْرِ فَاطِمَةَ وَحْدَهَا ، وَأَدَّى الْمُطَّلِبُ بْنُ حَنْطَبٍ الْخَبَرَ بِذِكْرِ أَبِي ذَرٍّ وَحْدَهُ ، حَتَّى لا يَكُونَ بَيْنَ الْخَبَرَيْنِ تَضَادُّ وَلا تَهَاتُرٌ ، لأَنَّ الاغْتِسَالَ مِنْهُ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ كَانَ مَرَّةً وَاحِدَةً ، فَلَمَّا أَرَادَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ أَنْ يَغْتَسِلَ سَتَرَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، دُونَ فَاطِمَةَ .
Sayyida Umm Hani (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) was encamped in the upper part of Makkah. I came to him, and Abu Dharr al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him) brought a large vessel of water to the Prophet (peace be upon him). Sayyida Umm Hani (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: I saw traces of flour in that vessel. Sayyida Umm Hani (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: Then Abu Dharr al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him) set up a curtain for the Prophet (peace be upon him), then he performed ghusl (ritual bath). Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) set up a curtain for Abu Dharr al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him), then he performed ghusl. Then the Prophet (peace be upon him) performed eight rak‘ahs of prayer. This was at the time of Duha (forenoon). (Imam Ibn Hibban, may Allah have mercy on him, says:) It is possible that on the day of the conquest of Makkah, when the Prophet (peace be upon him) performed ghusl, both his daughter Sayyida Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) and Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) set up the curtain for him, using the same cloth. So, the slave of Sayyida Umm Hani (may Allah be pleased with her), Abu Murrah, narrated the report in which only Sayyida Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) is mentioned, and Matlub bin Hantab narrated the report in which only Abu Dharr al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him) is mentioned. In this case, there is no contradiction or difference between the two reports, because on that day the Prophet (peace be upon him) performed ghusl only once. That is why, when Abu Dharr al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him) intended to perform ghusl, the Prophet (peace be upon him) set up the curtain for him. Sayyida Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her) did not do so.
