أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ الْقَطَّانُ بِبَغْدَادَ، ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ دَرَسْتُوَيْهِ، ثنا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ، ثنا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْحُمَيْدِيُّ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ يَحْيَى بْنَ سَعِيدٍ الْقَطَّانَ يَسْأَلُ سُفْيَان يَعْنِي ابْنَ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ تَيَمَّمْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى الْمَنَاكِبِ، فَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ حَضَرْتُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنَ أُمَيَّةَ أَتَى الزُّهْرِيَّ، فَقَالَ: يَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ إِنَّ النَّاسَ يُنْكِرُونَ عَلَيْكَ حَدِيثَيْنِ قَالَ: وَمَا هُمَا؟ فَقَالَ: تَيَمَّمْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى الْمَنَاكِبِ، فَقَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ: أَخْبَرَنِيهِ عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَمَّارٍ، قَالَ: تَيَمَّمْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى الْمَنَاكِبِ. فَقَالَ إِسْمَاعِيلُ: وَحَدِيثُ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ فِي مَسِّ الْإِبْطِ، فَكَأَنَّ الزُّهْرِيَّ كَفَّ عَنْهُ كَالْمُنْكِرِ لَهُ أَوْ أَنْكَرَهُ فَأَتَيْتُ عَمْرَو بْنَ دِينَارٍ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ وَقَدْ كُنْتُ سَمِعْتُهُ يُحَدِّثُ بِهِ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ فَقَالَ: عَمْرٌو: بَلْ حَدَّثَنِي الزُّهْرِيُّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ أَنَّ عُمَرَ أَمَرَ رَجُلًا أَنْ يَتَوَضَّأَ مِنْ مَسِّ الْإِبْطِ. قَالَ الشَّيْخُ: وَحَدِيثُ مَسِّ الْإِبْطِ مُرْسَلٌ عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ لَمْ يُدْرِكْ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ وَقَدْ أَنْكَرَهُ الزُّهْرِيُّ بَعْدَمَا حَدَّثَ بِهِ وَقَدْ يَكُونُ أَمَرَ بِغَسْلِ الْيَدِ مِنْهُ تَنْظِيفًا، وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ " وَرُوِيَ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ يُخَالِفُ أَحَدُهُمَا صَاحِبَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ.
Abu Bakr al-Humaydi (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I heard Yahya bin Sa'id al-Qattan (may Allah have mercy on him) ask Sufyan bin Uyaynah (may Allah have mercy on him) about this hadith, namely: "We performed tayammum with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) up to the shoulders." Sufyan (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I was present with Isma'il bin Umayyah (may Allah have mercy on him) when he came to al-Zuhri (may Allah have mercy on him) and said: O Abu Bakr! People object to two of your hadiths! He asked: Which are they? He said: "They performed tayammum up to the shoulders."
Al-Zuhri (may Allah have mercy on him) said: It is narrated from Ammar (may Allah be pleased with him): "We performed tayammum with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) up to the shoulders." Isma'il (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The hadith of Ubaydullah mentions touching the armpits.
It is narrated from Ubaydullah that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) ordered a man to perform ablution because he had touched his armpits.
The hadith about touching the armpit is mursal: Ubaydullah bin Abdullah bin Utbah did not meet Umar bin al-Khattab, and al-Zuhri disowned it after having narrated it.
Sometimes the order to wash the hands is given for the sake of cleanliness. And Allah knows best.
