Hadith 161
نا أَبُو بَكْرٍ النَّيْسَابُورِيُّ ، نا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، نا صَفْوَانُ بْنُ عِيسَى ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ ذَكْوَانَ ، عَنْ مَرْوَانَ الأَصْفَرَ ، قَالَ : رَأَيْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ أَنَاخَ رَاحِلَتَهُ مُسْتَقْبِلَ الْقِبْلَةِ ثُمَّ جَلَسَ يَبُولُ إِلَيْهَا ، فَقُلْتُ : أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَلَيْسَ قَدْ نُهِيَ عَنْ هَذَا ؟ فَقَالَ : " بَلَى ، إِنَّمَا نُهِيَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فِي الْفَضَاءِ ، فَإِذَا كَانَ بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَ الْقِبْلَةِ شَيْءٌ يَسْتُرُكَ فَلا بَأْسَ " . هَذَا صَحِيحٌ كُلُّهُمْ ثِقَاتٌ.
Marwan Asfar narrates: I saw Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) make his she-camel sit facing the Qiblah, then he sat and urinated facing it. I said, "O Abu Abdur Rahman! Has this not been prohibited?" He replied, "Yes! But it has been prohibited in open space. When there is something between you and the Qiblah as a barrier, then there is no harm in it." This narration is authentic and all its narrators are trustworthy.
Hadith 162
نا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْبَزَّازُ ، نا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ شَوْكَرٍ ، نا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ . ح وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ النَّيْسَابُورِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الأَزْهَرِ ، نا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ، نا أَبِي ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبَانُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ ، قَالَ : " كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ نَهَانَا أَنْ نَسْتَدْبِرَ الْقِبْلَةَ أَوْ نَسْتَقْبِلَهَا بِفُرُوجِنَا إِذَا أَهْرَقْنَا الْمَاءَ ، ثُمَّ قَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ قَبْلَ مَوْتِهِ بِعَامٍ يَبُولُ مُسْتَقْبِلَ الْقِبْلَةِ " . كُلُّهُمْ ثِقَاتٌ ، وَقَالَ ابْنُ شَوْكَرٍ : أَنْ يَسْتَقْبِلَ الْقِبْلَةَ أَوْ يَسْتَدْبِرَهَا.
Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade us from this, "When we (relieve ourselves and afterwards) pour water over our private parts, we should neither turn our backs towards the Qiblah nor face it." Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: After that, I saw the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) one year before his apparent passing, he was urinating while facing the Qiblah. All the narrators of this narration are trustworthy, and the narrator named Ibn Shaukar has transmitted these words: "We should neither face the Qiblah nor turn our backs towards it."
Hadith 163
نا أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ الآدَمِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنِي السَّرِيُّ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ أَبُو سَهْلٍ ، نا عِيسَى بْنُ يُونُسَ ، عَنْ أَبِي عَوَانَةَ ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ ، عَنْ عِرَاكِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ : " ذُكِرَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ قَوْمًا يَكْرَهُونَ أَنْ يَسْتَقْبِلُوا الْقِبْلَةَ بِغَائِطٍ أَوْ بَوْلٍ ، فَأَمَرَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِمَوْضِعِ خَلائِهِ أَنْ يَسْتَقْبِلَ بِهِ الْقِبْلَةَ " . بَيْنَ خَالِدٍ وَعِرَاكٍ ، خَالِدُ بْنُ أَبِي الصَّلْتِ.
Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: Once, in the presence of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), it was mentioned that some people dislike facing the Qiblah or turning their backs to it while relieving themselves. So the Prophet (peace be upon him) instructed them to go to a place for relieving themselves that was facing the Qiblah. Imam Daraqutni states: In the chain of this narration, between the narrator named Khalid and the narrator named Iraq, there is a narrator named Khalid bin Abu Salat.
Hadith 164
نا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الْجَمَّالُ ، نا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، نا حَجَّاجُ بْنُ نُصَيْرٍ ، نا الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ مُطَيَّبٍ ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ ، قَالَ : كَانُوا عِنْدَ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ، فَقَالَ : مَا اسْتَقْبَلْتُ الْقِبْلَةَ بِغَائِطٍ مُذْ كُنْتُ رَجُلا . وَعِرَاكُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ عِنْدَهُ ، فَقَالَ عِرَاكٌ : قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ : " بَلَغَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ قَوْمًا يَكْرَهُونَهُ فَأَمَرَ بِمَقْعَدَتِهِ فَحُوِّلَتْ إِلَى الْقِبْلَةِ " ، وَهَذَا مِثْلُهُ . تَابَعَهُ يَحْيَى بْنُ مَطَرٍ ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ.
Khalid Juza’ narrates: Those people were present with Umar bin Abdul Aziz, and he said: "Since I reached adulthood, I have never relieved myself facing the Qiblah." ‘Iraq bin Malik was present with him, and ‘Iraq said: Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) has narrated this: Once the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) came to know that some people disliked this matter, so the Prophet (peace be upon him) gave instructions regarding their toilet, and thus its direction was set towards the Qiblah. A similar narration has also been transmitted.
Hadith 165
نا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ ، نا عَمِّي ، نا هِشَامُ بْنُ بَهْرَامَ ، نا يَحْيَى بْنُ مَطَرٍ ، نا خَالِدٌ الْحَذَّاءُ ، عَنْ عِرَاكِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ : " سَمِعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِقَوْمٍ يَكْرَهُونَ أَنْ يَسْتَقْبِلُوا الْقِبْلَةَ بِغَائِطٍ أَوْ بَوْلٍ فَحَوَّلَ مَقْعَدَتَهُ إِلَى الْقِبْلَةِ " . هَذَا الْقَوْلُ أَصَحُّ ، هَكَذَا رَوَاهُ أَبُو عَوَانَةَ وَالْقَاسِمُ بْنُ مُطَيَّبٍ ويَحْيَى بْنُ مَطَرٍ عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ عَنْ عِرَاكٍ . وَرَوَاهُ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ ، وَحَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ أَبِي الصَّلْتِ ، عَنْ عِرَاكٍ ، وَتَابَعَهُمَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ الثَّقَفِيُّ ، إِلا إِنَّهُ قَالَ : عَنْ رَجُلٍ.
Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) heard about some people who disliked facing the Qiblah while defecating or urinating, so under the command of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), the sitting place for their toilets was turned towards the direction of the Qiblah. This narration is more authentic. Some other narrators have also transmitted this narration.
Hadith 166
نا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ، نا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، نا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَاصِمٍ ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ أَبِي الصَّلْتِ ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ عِنْدَ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ فِي خِلافَتِهِ ، وَعِنْدَهُ عِرَاكُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ ، فَقَالَ عُمَرُ : مَا اسْتَقْبَلْتُ الْقِبْلَةَ وَلا اسْتَدْبَرْتُهَا بِبَوْلٍ وَلا غَائِطٍ مُذْ كَذَا وَكَذَا ، فَقَالَ عِرَاكٌ : حَدَّثَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ ، قَالَتْ : لَمَّا بَلَغَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَوْلُ النَّاسِ فِي ذَلِكَ أَمَرَ بِمَقْعَدَتِهِ فَاسْتَقْبَلَ بِهَا الْقِبْلَةَ " . هَذَا أَضْبَطُ إِسْنَادٍ ، وَزَادَ فِيهِ خَالِدُ بْنُ أَبِي الصَّلْتِ ، وَهُوَ الصَّوَابُ.
Khalid bin Abu Salat narrates: I was sitting with Umar bin Abdul Aziz during his caliphate, and Iraq bin Malik was also sitting with him. Umar bin Abdul Aziz said: "For such a long time, I have never faced the Qiblah nor turned my back to it while urinating or defecating." So Iraq said: Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrated this hadith to me, she said: When the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) learned about the opinion of some people, by his order, the direction of their toilet was turned towards the Qiblah. In this narration, there is greater accuracy in the chain, and there is the addition of the narrator named Khalid bin Abu Salat, and this is correct.
Hadith 167
نا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ، نا بِشْرُ بْنُ مُوسَى ، نا يَحْيَى بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ، نا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ . ح وَثنا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْوَاسِطِيُّ ، نا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ، نا أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، نا وَكِيعٌ ، عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ الْحَذَّاءِ ، عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ أَبِي الصَّلْتِ ، عَنْ عِرَاكِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، بِهَذَا قَالَتْ : فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " اسْتَقْبِلُوا بِمَقْعَدَتِي الْقِبْلَةَ " . وَقَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ : خَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُمْ يَذْكُرُونَ كَرَاهِيَةَ اسْتِقْبَالِ الْقِبْلَةِ بِالْفُرُوجِ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " قَدْ فَعَلُوهَا حَوِّلُوا مَقْعَدَتِي إِلَى الْقِبْلَةِ " ، وَهَذَا مِثْلُهُ.
Iraq bin Malik narrates from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) ordered: "Turn my toilet to face the Qibla." Yahya bin Ishaq, the narrator, reports: Once the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) came and people were discussing the dislike of facing the Qibla while urinating or defecating, so the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "These people are saying this, you turn my toilet to face the Qibla."
Hadith 168
حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، نا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ، نا أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، ثنا الثَّقَفِيُّ ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ ، عَنْ عِرَاكٍ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " أَمَرَ بِخَلائِهِ فَحُوِّلَ إِلَى الْقِبْلَةِ لَمَّا بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ النَّاسَ قَدْ كَرِهُوا ذَلِكَ " .
Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: The direction of the Prophet Muhammad’s (peace be upon him) toilet was set towards the Qiblah by his order, when he came to know that some people disliked this matter.
Hadith 169
حَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ الأَحْوَلُ ، قَالا : نا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ الأَحْمَسِيُّ ، نا عُمَرُ بْنُ شَبِيبٍ ، عَنْ عِيسَى الْحَنَّاطِ ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : " أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حَاجَةٍ ، فَلَمَّا دَخَلْتُ إِلَيْهِ ، فَإِذَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْحَرَجِ عَلَى لَبِنَتَيْنِ مُسْتَقْبِلَ الْقِبْلَةِ " . عِيسَى بْنُ أَبِي عِيسَى الْحَنَّاطُ ضَعِيفٌ.
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: I came to the service of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) for some task. When I entered upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he was in the toilet, sitting on two bricks, relieving himself, and his face was towards the Qiblah. Shaykh Abul Hasan (Imam Daraqutni) says: The narrator Isa bin Abu Isa Hannat is weak.
Hadith 170
نا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، نا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحِيمِ صَاعِقَةُ ، نا أَبُو الْمُنْذِرِ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عُمَرَ ، نا وَرْقَاءُ ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لا تَسْتَقْبِلُوا الْقِبْلَةَ وَلا تَسْتَدْبِرُوهَا بِغَائِطٍ وَلا بَوْلٍ وَلَكِنْ شَرِّقُوا أَوْ غَرِّبُوا " .
Sayyiduna Abu Ayyub Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not face the Qiblah while defecating or urinating, nor turn your back towards it. Rather (from the perspective of Madinah), face towards the east or the west."
Hadith 171
نا إسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الصَّفَّارُ ، نا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الدُّورِيُّ ، نا مُوسَى بْنُ دَاوُدَ ، نا حَاتِمُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ أَبِي عِيسَى ، قَالَ : قُلْتُ لِلشَّعْبِيِّ : عَجِبْتُ لِقَوْلِ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، وَنَافِعٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ، قَالَ : وَمَا قَالا ؟ قُلْتُ : قَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ : " لا تَسْتَقْبِلُوا الْقِبْلَةَ وَلا تَسْتَدْبِرُوهَا " . وَقَالَ وَقَالَ نَافِعٌ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ : " رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَهَبَ مَذْهَبًا مُوَاجِهَ الْقِبْلَةِ " فَقَالَ : أَمَّا قَوْلُ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ فَفِي الصَّحْرَاءِ : " إِنَّ لِلَّهِ تَعَالَى خَلْقًا مِنْ عِبَادِهِ يُصَلُّونَ فِي الصَّحْرَاءِ فَلا تَسْتَقْبِلُوهُمْ وَلا تَسْتَدْبِرُوهُمْ ، وَأَمَّا بُيُوتِكُمْ هَذِهِ الَّتِي يَتَّخِذُونَهَا لنَّتْنِ فَإِنَّهُ لا قِبْلَةَ لَهَا " . عِيسَى بْنُ أَبِي عِيسَى الْحَنَّاطُ وَهُوَ عِيسَى بْنُ مَيْسَرَةَ ، وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ.
Isa bin Abu Isa narrates: I said to Imam Sha’bi: I am greatly astonished at the statement of Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), and the narration transmitted by Nafi’ from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both). Imam Sha’bi inquired: What did these two gentlemen state? So I replied: Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) says: “(At the time of relieving oneself) do not face the Qiblah nor turn your back towards it.” Whereas Nafi’ has narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: “I saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him): he went to the toilet for relieving himself, and its direction was towards the Qiblah.” So Imam Sha’bi stated: “As for the statement of Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), it pertains to the open desert, because there are some servants of Allah who perform prayer in the desert, so you should not face or turn your back towards them while relieving yourself. But as for toilets constructed within houses, there is no prohibition in facing or turning your back towards the Qiblah in them.”
Hadith 172
حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْبَزَّازُ ، وَأَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْوَكِيلُ ، قَالا : نا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَرَفَةَ ، نا هُشَيْمٌ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الأَنْصَارِيِّ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى بْنِ حَبَّانَ ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ وَاسِعِ بْنِ حَبَّانَ ، سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ ، يَقُولُ : " ظَهَرْتُ عَلَى إِجَّارٍ عَلَى بَيْتِ حَفْصَةَ فِي سَاعَةٍ لَمْ أَظُنَّ أَحَدًا يَخْرُجُ فِي تِلْكَ السَّاعَةِ ، فَاطَّلَعْتُ فَإِذَا أَنَا بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى لَبِنَتَيْنِ مُسْتَقْبِلَ بَيْتَ الْمَقْدِسِ " .
Wasi' bin Hibban narrates: I heard Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) saying, he said: Once I climbed onto the roof of the house of Sayyidah Hafsah (may Allah be pleased with her), at a time when I thought that no one would leave the house at that hour. When I paid attention, I saw the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sitting on two bricks, facing Bayt al-Maqdis (Jerusalem), (relieving himself).
