Muwatta Malik 48

Authentic graded by Salim al-Hilali Companion’s words (mawquf) Muwatta Malik 48

وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ، حَنَّطَ ابْنًا لِسَعِيدِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ وَحَمَلَهُ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ فَصَلَّى وَلَمْ يَتَوَضَّأْ ‏.‏ قَالَ يَحْيَى وَسُئِلَ مَالِكٌ هَلْ فِي الْقَىْءِ وُضُوءٌ قَالَ لاَ وَلَكِنْ لِيَتَمَضْمَضْ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَلْيَغْسِلْ فَاهُ وَلَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ وُضُوءٌ ‏.‏

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that Abdullah ibn Umar prepared the body of one of Said ibn Zayd's sons for burial and carried it and then entered the mosque and prayed without doing wudu.

Yahya said that Malik was asked whether it was necessary to do wudu because of regurgitating undigested food and he said, "No, wudu is not necessary, but the mouth should be rinsed."

Reported by Malik (No. 48).

( ش ) : لَا خِلَافَ أَنَّ مَنْ حَنَّطَ مَيِّتًا لَا وُضُوءَ عَلَيْهِ وَمَنْ حَمَلَهُ فَلَا وُضُوءَ عَلَيْهِ عِنْدَ جُمْهُورِ الْفُقَهَاءِ وَمَا رُوِيَ فِي ذَلِكَ مَنْ غَسَّلَ مَيِّتًا فَلْيَغْتَسِلْ وَمَنْ حَمَلَهُ فَلْيَتَوَضَّأْ فَلَيْسَ بِثَابِتٍ وَلَوْ صَحَّ كَانَ مَعْنَاهُ أَنْ يَتَوَضَّأَ إِنْ كَانَ مُحْدِثًا لِيَكُونَ عَلَى وُضُوءٍ فَيُصَلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ مَعَ الْمُصَلِّينَ…
