أَخْبَرَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ ، عَنْ حُمَيْدَةَ بِنْتِ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ رِفَاعَةَ ، عَنْ كَبْشَةَ بِنْتِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، وَكَانَتْ تَحْتَ ابْنِ أَبِي قَتَادَة ، أَنَّ أَبَا قَتَادَةَ " دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا ، فَسَكَبَتْ لَهُ وُضُوءًا ، فَجَاءَتْ هِرَّةٌ تَشْرَبُ ، فَأَصْغَى أَبُو قَتَادَةَ الإِنَاءَ ، فَشَرِبَتْ ، قَالَتْ كَبْشَةُ : فَرَآنِي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ ، فَقَالَ : أَتَعْجَبِينَ يَا ابْنَةَ أَخِي ؟ فَقُلْتُ : نَعَمْ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : " إِنَّهَا لَيْسَتْ بِنَجَسٍ ، إِنَّمَا هِيَ مِنَ الطَّوَّافِينَ عَلَيْكُمْ وَالطَّوَّافَاتِ " .
Sayyida Kabsha bint Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with her), who was the wife of the son of Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him), narrates: Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) came to her. She placed water for his ablution. A cat came and began to drink from it. Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) pushed the vessel towards it. The cat drank the water. Sayyida Kabsha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: Sayyiduna Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) looked at me. I was looking at him attentively, so he asked: O my niece! Are you surprised? I said: Yes. So he said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "It (i.e., the cat) is not impure. It is one of those animals that go about among you in your homes."
