صحيح ابن خزيمه
Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah
جماع أبواب سنن السواك وفضائلهChapters on Siwak and its Virtues
(107) بَابُ ذِكْرِ الدَّلِيلِ عَلَى أَنَّ الْأَمْرَ بِالسِّوَاكِ أَمْرُ فَضِيلَةٍ لَا أَمْرُ فَرِيضَةٍChapter 107: Evidence that the command to use the tooth-stick is a virtue, not an obligation
Hadith 140
نا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مَعْبَدٍ ، نا رَوْحُ بْنُ عِبَادَةَ ، نا مَالِكٌ ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَوْلا أَنْ أَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِي ، لأَمَرْتُهُمْ بِالسِّوَاكِ مَعَ كُلِّ وُضُوءٍ " . قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : هَذَا الْخَبَرُ فِي الْمُوَطَّإِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ : " لَوْلا أَنْ يَشُقَّ عَلَى أُمَّتِهِ ، لأَمَرَهُمْ بِالسِّوَاكِ عِنْدَ كُلِّ وَضُوءٍ " ، وَرَوَاهُ الشَّافِعِيُّ ، وَبِشْرُ بْنُ عُمَرَ كَرِوَايَةِ رَوْحٍ
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If I had not feared that I would put hardship upon my Ummah, I would have commanded them to use the miswak with every ablution." Imam Abu Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) says that this hadith is narrated in the Muwatta from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) in this way: If it had not been difficult for your Ummah, you (peace and blessings be upon him) would have commanded them to use the miswak at every time of ablution. Imam Shafi'i (may Allah have mercy on him) and Bishr bin Umar have narrated it in the manner of Ruh's narration.
