حَدَّثَنَا حَدَّثَنَا
أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ
عَمْرِو بْنِ مَيْمُونِ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ، عَنْ
سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ، عَنْ
عَائِشَةَ " أَنَّهَا غَسَلَتْ مَنِيًّا مِنْ ثَوْبِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ " . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : هَذَا حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ، وَفِي الْبَاب عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ , وَحَدِيثُ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّهَا غَسَلَتْ مَنِيًّا مِنْ ثَوْبِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، لَيْسَ بِمُخَالِفٍ لِحَدِيثِ الْفَرْكِ ، لِأَنَّهُ وَإِنْ كَانَ الْفَرْكُ يُجْزِئُ فَقَدْ يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلرَّجُلِ أَنْ لَا يُرَى عَلَى ثَوْبِهِ أَثَرُهُ ، قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ : الْمَنِيُّ بِمَنْزِلَةِ الْمُخَاطِ فَأَمِطْهُ عَنْكَ وَلَوْ بِإِذْخِرَةٍ .
´Sulaiman bin Yasar narrated from Aishah, that :` she washed Mani from the garment of Allah's Messenger.
Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Dr. Abdur Rahman Freywai
1:
This is because there is clear compatibility between the two,
those who hold the view that semen (mani) is pure interpret the narration about washing as being for recommendation (istihbab),
they say that this washing was not obligatory (wajib) but rather for cleanliness (nazafah),
because if washing had been obligatory, then in the case of it being dry, merely scraping it off would not have sufficed,
whereas Aisha (radi Allahu anha) was content with only scraping it off.
