Explanation of the Book of Ablution, Ghusl, Menstruation, and Tayammum-09b
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The reciter: Muhammad ibn Yusuf narrated to us, saying: Sufyan narrated to us from al-A'mash from Salim ibn Abi al-Ja'd from Kuraib from Ibn Abbas from Maymunah, the wife of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who said: Sahih al-Bukhari 249.
The Shaykh : This action is his ghusl from janabah. The hadith states that he performed wudu' as he does for prayer, except for his feet, and in some narrations it is mentioned that he moved his feet after finishing his ghusl and washed them. It appears, and Allah knows best, that the place where he used to bathe was contaminated with mud, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) intended to wash his feet only once when he finished the ghusl at the end. If someone asks why he did not wash his feet to complete the wudu' and then wash his hands afterwards, we say that it appears the water was scarce, as evidenced by the hadith of Maymunah where, when he washed his private parts (may the prayers and peace of Allah be upon him), he struck the ground or the wall with his hand two or three times, and this seems to be due to the scarcity of water. In this hadith as well, in this narration, it says that he performed wudu' as he does for prayer, except for his feet, and he washed his private parts and whatever impurity had touched him. This order does not imply that the washing of the private parts was after the wudu'; rather, the one who washes first is the private parts, then he performs wudu'. And as you know, the conjunction "wa" (and) does not imply order.
Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) performed ablution like that for the prayer but did not wash his feet. He washed off the discharge from his private parts and then poured water over his body. He withdrew his feet from that place (the place where he took the bath) and then washed them. And that was his way of taking the bath of Janaba.
توضأ رسول الله صلّى الله عليه وسلم وضوءه للصلاة غير رجليه وغسل فرجه وما أصابه من الأذى ثم أفاض عليه الماء ثم نحى رجليه فغسلهما، هذه غسله من الجنابةThe Shaykh : This action is his ghusl from janabah.
