Bayhaqi 605 — Ablution (wudu) after touching a woman
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.
