أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ حَرْبٍ - قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَجَلِيُّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ كُنْتُ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَأَتَى الْخَلاَءَ فَقَضَى الْحَاجَةَ ثُمَّ قَالَ ‏"‏ يَا جَرِيرُ

هَاتِ طَهُورًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَأَتَيْتُهُ بِالْمَاءِ فَاسْتَنْجَى بِالْمَاءِ وَقَالَ بِيَدِهِ فَدَلَكَ بِهَا الأَرْضَ ‏

Ibrahim bin Jarir narrated that his father said:

"I was with the Prophet (ﷺ) and he went to Al Khala' (toilet) and relieved himself, then he said: "O Jarir, bring Tahur (a means of purification)." So I brought him some water and he performed Intinja' with water, and did like this with hand, rubbing it on the ground. Abu 'Abdur-Rahman (An-Nasa'i) said: "This resembles more with what is correct than the (previous) narration of Sharik, and Allah knows best."

Reported by An-Nasa’i (No. 51).

قَوْله ( طَهُورًا ) بِفَتْحِ الطَّاء أَيْ مَاء. قَوْله ( هَذَا أَشْبَه بِالصَّوَابِ ) أَيْ كَوْن الْحَدِيث مِنْ مُسْنَد جَرِير أَوْلَى مِنْ كَوْنه مِنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَة قِيلَ فِي تَرْجِيح النَّسَائِيِّ رِوَايَة أَبَانٍ عَلَى رِوَايَة شَرِيك نَظَر فَإِنَّ شَرِيكًا أَعْلَى وَأَوْسَع رِوَايَة وَأَحْفَظ وَقَدْ أَخْرَجَ لَهُ مُسْلِم فِي صَحِيحه وَلَمْ يُخَرَّج لِأَبَانٍ عَلَى أَنَّهُ يُمْكِن أَنْ يَكُون الْحَدِيث مِنْ مُسْنَد جَرِير وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَة جَمِيعًا وَيَكُون عِنْد إِبْرَاهِيم بِالطَّرِيقَيْنِ جَمِيعًا وَاَللَّه تَعَالَى أَعْلَم.…

I then took to him another vessel and he performed ablution. Abu Dawud said : The tradition is transmitted by al-Aswad…
