English translation

14. Ibn ‘Umar reported that when the Prophet ﷺ wanted to relieve himself, he would not raise his garments until he came close to the ground. (Ḍa’if) Abū Dāwūd said: It was (also) reported by ‘Abdus-Salām bin Ḥarb, from Al-‘Amash, from Anas bin Mālik, and it is weak.

Arabic text

14 - حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ: «أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا أَرَادَ حَاجَةً لَا يَرْفَعُ ثَوْبَهُ حَتَّى يَدْنُوَ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ». قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: رَوَاهُ عَبْدُ السَّلَامِ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ - وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ - قَالَ أَبُوعِيسَى الرَّمْلِيُّ: حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَوْنٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ السَّلَامِ بِهِ

Commentary

One should be very careful while undressing, even if one is alone, because Allāh has a greater right to modesty.
