حَدَّثَنَا آدَمُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ هَمَّامِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ

قَالَ رَأَيْتُ جَرِيرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بَالَ ثُمَّ تَوَضَّأَ، وَمَسَحَ عَلَى خُفَّيْهِ، ثُمَّ قَامَ فَصَلَّى، فَسُئِلَ فَقَالَ رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ صَنَعَ مِثْلَ هَذَا. قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فَكَانَ يُعْجِبُهُمْ، لأَنَّ جَرِيرًا كَانَ مِنْ آخِرِ مَنْ أَسْلَمَ

Hammam ibn al-Harith said, “I saw Jarir ibn Abdullah urinating. Then he performed ablution and passed his (wet) hands over his Khuffs (socks made from thick fabric or leather), stood up and prayed. He was asked about it. He replied that he had seen the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) doing the same.” They approved of this narration as Jarir was one of those who embraced Islam very late.

হাম্মাম ইবনু হারিস (রহ.) হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেনঃ আমি জারীর ইবনু ‘আবদুল্লাহ (রাযি.)-কে দেখলাম যে, তিনি পেশাব করলেন। অতঃপর উযূ করলেন আর উভয় মোজার উপরে মাসেহ করলেন। অতঃপর তিনি দাঁড়িয়ে সালাত আদায় করলেন।

তাঁকে জিজ্ঞেস করা হলে তিনি বললেনঃ আমি নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম -কেও এরূপ করতে দেখেছি। ইবরাহীম (রহ.) বলেনঃ এ হাদীস মুহাদ্দিসীনের নিকট অত্যন্ত পছন্দনীয়। কারণ জারীর (রাযি.) ছিলেন নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম -এর শেষ সময়ে ইসলাম গ্রহণকারীদের মধ্যে একজন।

ہم سے آدم بن ابی ایاس نے بیان کیا، کہا ہم سے شعبہ نے اعمش کے واسطہ سے، اس نے کہا کہ میں نے ابراہیم نخعی سے سنا۔ وہ ہمام بن حارث سے روایت کرتے تھے، انہوں نے کہا کہ میں نے جریر بن عبداللہ رضی اللہ عنہ کو دیکھا، انہوں نے پیشاب کیا پھر وضو کیا اور اپنے موزوں پر مسح کیا۔

پھر کھڑے ہوئے اور ( موزوں سمیت ) نماز پڑھی۔ آپ سے جب اس کے متعلق پوچھا گیا، تو فرمایا کہ میں نے نبی کریم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کو ایسا ہی کرتے دیکھا ہے۔

ابراہیم نخعی نے کہا کہ یہ حدیث لوگوں کی نظر میں بہت پسندیدہ تھی کیونکہ جریر رضی اللہ عنہ آخر میں اسلام لائے تھے۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Adam] berkata, telah menceritakan kepada kami [Syu'bah] dari [Al A'masy] berkata, aku mendengar [Ibrahim] menceritakan dari [Hammam bin Al Harits] berkata, "Aku pernah melihat [Jarir bin 'Abdullah] kencing, lalu ia berwudlu dan mengusap dua sepatunya lalu berdiri shalat.

Maka hal itu ditanyakan kepadanya, ia lantas menjawab, "Aku pernah melihat Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam berbuat seperti ini." Ibrahim berkata, "Yang jadi mengherankan mereka adalah karena Jarir adalah termasuk di antara orang yang masuk Islam belakangan

Hemmâm İbnü'l-Hâris'ten şöyle nakledilmiştir: "Cerîr İbn Abdullah'ın idrarını yaptıktan sonra abdest alıp mestleri üzerine meshettiğini ve ardından da kalkıp namaz kıldığını gördüm. Ona neden bu şekilde abdest aldığı soruldu. O da şöyle cevap verdi; Nebi Sallallahu Aleyhi ve Sellem'in böyle yaptığını gördüm. İbrahim, Cerîr'in bu sözünün sahabenin hoşuna gittiğini söylemiştir. Çünkü o, en son Müslüman olanlardandı

What it means

Jarīr ibn ‘Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) urinated, then performed ablution and was content with wiping over his leather socks without washing his feet. Those around him said: Are you really doing this?!

He replied: Yes, I saw the Prophet (ﷺ) urinate, then perform ablution and wipe over his leather socks. Jarīr had embraced Islam late after the revelation of Surat al-Mā’idah, which contains the verse of ablution—indicating that wiping over the leather socks was not abrogated by that verse.

What it teaches

  • Keenness of the Companions and their successors to follow the Sunnah of the Prophet (ﷺ).
  • An-Nawawi said: All scholars whose consensus is considered authoritative have agreed on the permissibility of wiping over the leather socks, whether during travel or while residing, and whether out of necessity or not—even for a woman who stays at home or a person who is bedridden and unable to walk.
  • The virtue of Jarīr ibn ‘Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) is shown in his broad-mindedness and patience when his students objected to him, even though they were mistaken in doing so.
  • Refutation of those who denied wiping over the leather socks and claimed it was abrogated, for the Hadīth of Jarīr (may Allah be pleased with him) came after the revelation of the verse on ablution.
  • Clarification that when a person is criticized for something he believes to be correct, he should not become angry with the one who objects to him or argues based on his understanding. Rather, he should explain his evidence gently and with good manners.
  • Providing evidence from history when needed.
