The reason for restricting the hadith to the Muslim and the clarification of the purity of the body of the disbeliever
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, why did the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) restrict the hadith by saying "the Muslim does not defile," and not say "the human being"? How do we say that the disbeliever...
Answer:
Because the one who lagged behind the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was a Muslim. A Companion. As for the purity of the body of the disbeliever, it is established from other than this hadith, as we mentioned to you, that the Messenger used to eat from their food and what they cooked, and he would accept their invitations. The Companions used to wear from their woven garments and drink from the water in their possession, and they would perform wudu from it. This is evidence that their bodies are pure. And whatever they touched is pure. In this, the hardship is lifted from the Ummah. Therefore, the hardship is lifted from the Ummah, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
