The questioner:
A hadith narrated by Abu Dawud in which Aisha said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had a cup made of date palm wood in which he would urinate at night.
The Shaykh:
It is reported from the Prophet, but its authenticity is not established. He did this during his illness (peace and blessings be upon him). As for you, say: If a person is unable to do so, or is old, or ill, or after relieving himself, there is no harm in urinating in it. There is nothing wrong with that. He urinates in it and then turns it upside down afterwards. There is no blame, even if the hadith were not authentic. Yes.
