باب النَّهْيِ عَنِ اسْتِقْبَالِ الْقِبْلَةِ لِغَائِطٍ أَوْ بَوْلٍ:Chapter: Prohibition of Facing the Qiblah When Defecating or Urinating
Hadith 688
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ زَيدَ، عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: "إِذَا أَتَيْتُمْ الْغَائِطَ، فَلَا تَسْتَقْبِلُوا الْقِبْلَةَ بِغَائِطٍ، وَلَا بَوْلٍ، وَلَا تَسْتَدْبِرُوهَا"، قَالَ: ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ: فَقَدِمْنَا الشَّامَ، فَوَجَدْنَا مَرَاحِيضَ قَدْ بُنِيَتْ عِنْدَ الْقِبْلَةِ فَنَنْحَرِفُ وَنَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ، قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّد: وَهَذَا أَصَحُّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ، وَعَبْدُ الْكَرِيمِ شِبْهُ الْمَتْرُوكِ.
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Ayyub (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When you go to the toilet, do not face the Qiblah or turn your back towards it while defecating or urinating." The narrator said: Sayyiduna Abu Ayyub (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Then we came to the land of Syria and saw that the toilets were built facing the Qiblah, so we would turn our faces away from them and seek forgiveness from Allah. Imam Abu Muhammad al-Darimi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: This narration is more authentic than the first narration from Abdul Karim, and Abdul Karim is considered close to being abandoned.
