وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، وَأَبُوسَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو قَالَا: ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، أنبأ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ بِلَالٍ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو مَوْلَى الْمُطَّلِبِ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ رَجُلَيْنِ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ أَتَيَاهُ فَسَأَلَاهُ عَنِ الْغُسْلِ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ، أَوَاجِبٌ هُوَ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُمَا ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ: " مَنِ اغْتَسَلَ فَهُوَ أَحْسَنُ وَأَطْهَرُ، وَسَأُخْبِرُكُمْ لِمَاذَا بَدَأَ الْغُسْلُ، كَانَ النَّاسُ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُحْتَاجِينَ يَلْبَسُونَ الصُّوفَ وَيَسْقُونَ النَّخْلَ عَلَى ظُهُورِهِمْ، وَكَانَ الْمَسْجِدُ ضَيِّقًا مُقَارِبَ السَّقْفِ فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ فِي يَوْمٍ صَائِفٍ شَدِيدِ الْحَرِّ، وَمِنْبَرُهُ قَصِيرٌ، إِنَّمَا هُوَ ثَلَاثُ دَرَجَاتٍ، فَخَطَبَ النَّاسَ فَعَرِقَ النَّاسُ فِي الصُّوفِ فَثَارَتْ أَرْوَاحُهُمْ رِيحَ الْعَرَقِ وَالصُّوفِ حَتَّى كَادَ يُؤْذِي بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا، حَتَّى بَلَغَتْ أَرْوَاحُهُمْ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ، فَقَالَ: " يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ، إِذَا كَانَ هَذَا الْيَوْمُ فَاغْتَسِلُوا، وَلَيَمَسَّنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ مَا يَجِدُ مِنْ طِيبِهِ أَوْ دُهْنِهِ ".
Ikrimah (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that two men from Iraq came and asked whether the Friday ghusl was obligatory. Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Taking a bath is purer and better. But I will tell you how the ghusl began: in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) the people were poor and wore woollen clothing. They would water the date palms, carrying the water on their backs, and the mosque was narrow with a low roof. Once the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came out on a Friday in intense heat. His (peace and blessings be upon him) pulpit was also small, having only three steps. He (peace and blessings be upon him) delivered the sermon to the people, and from sweating in their woollen clothes a smell of wool and sweat arose, which caused the people discomfort, and the smell reached the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) as well. While he (peace and blessings be upon him) was on the pulpit, he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O people! When it is this day, take a bath, and put on whatever perfume and oil you have at home."
