قَالَ اللهُ تَعَالَى: {أَوْ لَامَسْتُمُ النِّسَاءَ} [النساء: ٤٣] وَاسْمُ اللَّمْسِ يَقَعُ عَلَى مَا دُونَ الْجِمَاعِ لِقَوْلِهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِمَاعِزِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ: " لَعَلَّكَ قَبَّلْتَ أَوْ لَمَسْتَ، وَنَهْيُهُ عَنْ بَيْعِ الْمُلَامَسَةِ، وَقَوْلُهُ فِي حَدِيثِ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ فِي بَعْضِ الرِّوَايَاتِ عَنْهُ: " وَالْيَدُ زِنَاهَا اللَّمْسُ ". وَقَوْلُ عَائِشَةَ: قَلَّ يَوْمًا أَوْ مَا كَانَ مَنْ يوْمٍ إِلَّا وَرَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى الله عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَمْ يَطُوفُ عَلَيْنَا جَمِيعًا، فَيُقَبِّلُ وَيَلْمِسُ مَا دُونَ الْوِقَاعِ. وَهَذِهِ الْأَحَادِيثِ بِأَسَانِيدِهِنَّ مُخَرَّجَةٌ فِي مَوَاضِعِهِنَّ.
Allah Almighty says: "Or you have touched women." [Surah al-Nisa: 43]
The word lams (touching) also applies to acts other than intercourse, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Ma'iz bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him): "Perhaps you kissed or touched."
And there is his (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibition of mulamasah (a sale concluded by touching),
and in some narrations of the hadith of Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) there is his (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "And the zina of the hand is touching."
And there is the statement of Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her): "Rarely did a day pass without the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) coming to all of us; he (peace and blessings be upon him) would kiss and touch, short of intercourse."
All these hadiths have been recorded with their chains in their respective places.

وَأَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الشَّعْرَانِيُّ، نا جَدِّي، نا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ حَمْزَةَ، نا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَمْرِو بْنِ عُثْمَانَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، قَالَ: " إِنَّ الْقُبْلَةَ مِنَ اللَّمْسِ فَتَوَضَّئُوا مِنْهَا ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) said: A kiss is like touching, so perform ablution because of it.
وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، وَأَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، قَالَا: نا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، نا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مَرْزُوقٍ، ثنا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عُمَرَ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ مُخَارِقٍ، عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ شِهَابٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللهِ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ: " فِي قَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى {أَوْ لَامَسْتُمُ النِّسَاءَ} [النساء: ٤٣] قَوْلًا مَعْنَاهُ مَا دُونَ الْجِمَاعِ ".
Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said concerning the saying of Allah, "Or you have touched women" [Surah al-Nisa: 43], that it means something other than intercourse.
وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، نا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ بَالَوَيْهِ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ شَاذَانَ الْجَوْهَرِيُّ، نا مُعَلَّى بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، ثنا هُشَيْمٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: " الْقُبْلَةُ مِنَ اللَّمْسِ وَمِنْهَا الْوُضُوءُ، وَاللَّمْسُ مَا دُونَ الْجِمَاعِ " هَكَذَا رَوَاهُ الثَّوْرِيُّ، وَشُعْبَةُ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ.
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) said: A kiss is a form of touching, and ablution is due because of it; and lams (touching) is what is short of intercourse.
وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ الْمُزَكِّي، نا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، نا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، نا الشَّافِعِيُّ، نا مَالِكٌ، وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو أَحْمَدَ الْعَدْلُ، أنا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ الْمُزَكِّي، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْعَبْدِيُّ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، ثنا مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: " قُبْلَةُ الرَّجُلِ امْرَأَتَهُ وَجَسُّهَا بِيَدِهِ مِنَ الْمُلَامَسَةِ، فَمَنْ قَبَّلَ امْرَأَتَهُ أَوْ جَسَّهَا بِيَدِهِ فَعَلَيْهِ الْوُضُوءُ ". لَفْظُ حَدِيثِ الشَّافِعِيِّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ. وَفِي رِوَايَةِ ابْنِ بُكَيْرٍ، فَقَدْ وَجَبَ عَلَيْهِ الْوُضُوءُ. فَهَذَا قَوْلُ عُمَرَ وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ، وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ. وَخَالَفَهُمْ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ، فَحَمَلَ الْمُلَامَسَةَ الْمَذْكُورَةَ فِي الْكِتَابِ الْعَزِيزِ عَلَى الْجِمَاعِ، وَلَمْ يرَ فِي الْقُبْلَةِ وُضُوءًا.
(a) Salim (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates from his father that a man's kissing his wife and touching her body with his hand are part of mulamasah (touching), and whoever kisses his wife or touches her with his hand must perform ablution.
(b) In the narration of Ibn Bukayr the wording is: ablution becomes obligatory upon him.
(c) This is the view of Sayyiduna Umar, Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud and Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them). Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) differed from them: he interpreted the mulamasah mentioned in the Book of Allah as intercourse, and he did not hold that kissing requires ablution.

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، نا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، نا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مَرْزُوقٍ، نا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي بِشْرٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، قَالَ: تَذَاكَرْنَا اللَّمْسَ فَقَالَ أُنَاسٌ مِنَ الْمَوَالِي: لَيْسَ مِنَ الْجِمَاعِ. وَقَالَ أُنَاسٌ مِنَ الْعَرَبِ: هِيَ مِنَ الْجِمَاعِ، فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، فَقَالَ: " مَعَ أَيِّهِمْ كُنْتَ؟ " قُلْتُ: مَعَ الْمَوَالِي. قَالَ: " غُلِبَتِ الْمَوَالِي إِنَّ اللَّمْسَ وَالْمُبَاشَرَةَ مِنَ الْجِمَاعِ، وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يُكَنِّي مَا شَاءَ بِمَا شَاءَ، وَقَوْلُ مَنْ يُوَافِقُ قَوْلُهُ ظَاهِرُ الْكِتَابِ أَوْلَى ".
Sa'id bin Jubayr (may Allah have mercy on him) said: We discussed lams (touching). Some people among the mawali (non-Arab clients) said: It is not intercourse, and the Arabs said: It is intercourse. I mentioned this to Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both), and he said: Which of them were you with? I said: With the mawali. He said: The mawali are mistaken. Indeed, touching and mubasharah (intimate contact) are intercourse, but Allah Almighty alludes to whatever He wills by whatever He wills. Their view is more worthy, being in agreement with the apparent meaning of the Book.
وَاحْتَجَّ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِنَا بِمَا أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أَخْبَرَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُوسَى، نا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، أنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُوسَى، وَيَحْيَى بْنُ الْمُغِيرَةِ، قَالَا: نا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ قَاعِدًا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَجَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ وَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى الله عَلَيْكَ وَسَلَّمَ مَا تَقُولُ فِي رَجُلٍ أَصَابَ مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ لَا تَحِلُّ لَهُ فَلَمْ يَدَعْ شَيْئًا يُصِيبُهُ الرَّجُلُ مِنَ امْرَأَتِهِ إِلَّا وَقَدْ أَصَابَهُ مِنْهَا إِلَّا أَنَّهُ لَمْ يُجَامِعْهَا؟ ⦗٢٠٠⦘ فَقَالَ: " تَوَضَّأْ وُضُوءًا حَسَنًا، ثُمَّ قُمْ فَصَلِّ ". قَالَ: فَأَنْزَلَ اللهُ تَعَالَى هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ {أَقِمِ الصَّلَاةَ طَرَفَيِ النَّهَارِ وَزُلَفًا مِنَ اللَّيْلِ} [هود: ١١٤] الْآيَةَ. فَقَالَ: أَهِيَ لَهُ خَاصَّةً أَمْ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ عَامَّةً؟ فَقَالَ: " بَلْ هِيَ لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ عَامَّةً ". وَهَكَذَا رَوَاهُ زَائِدَةُ بْنُ قُدَامَةَ، وَأَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ. وَفِيهِ إِرْسَالٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، لَمْ يُدْرِكْ مُعَاذَ بْنَ جَبَلٍ.
Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) was sitting with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when a man said: O Messenger of Allah, what do you say about a man who was intimate with a woman who is not lawful for him, and did everything except intercourse? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Let him perform ablution well, then stand and pray." Then Allah Almighty revealed this verse: "Establish prayer at the two ends of the day and in some hours of the night" [Surah Hud: 114]. It was asked: Is this specific to him or general for all Muslims? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No, rather it is for all Muslims."
Its chain is mursal (broken): Abd al-Rahman bin Abi Layla did not meet Mu'adh bin Jabal.
