English translation

188. Al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah said: "One night I was a guest of the Prophet ﷺ. He ordered the side of a goat (to be cooked for me), so it was roasted. He then took a knife, and started cutting bits (of the meat) from it for me. Bilāl came, and informed him of the prayer (that its time had come). So he put the knife aside, and remarked: 'What is the matter with him, may his hands be dusted!' Then he stood up to pray." Al-Anbārī (one of the narrators) added: "My moustache was very long, so he trimmed it upon a Siwāk,” or he said: “He told me that he would trim it upon a Siwāk.” (Sahīh)

188 - حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ الْأَنْبَارِيُّ الْمَعْنَى، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنْ مِسْعَرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي صَخْرَةَ جَامِعِ بْنِ شَدَّادٍ، عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ، قَالَ: ضِفْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ لَيْلَةٍ فَأَمَرَ بِجَنْبٍ فَشُوِيَ، وَأَخَذَ الشَّفْرَةَ فَجَعَلَ يَحُزُّ لِي بِهَا مِنْهُ، قَالَ: فَجَاءَ بِلَالٌ فَآذَنَهُ بِالصَّلَاةِ، قَالَ: فَأَلْقَى الشَّفْرَةَ، وَقَالَ: «مَا لَهُ تَرِبَتْ يَدَاهُ» وَقَامَ يُصَلِّ، زَادَ الْأَنْبَارِيُّ: «وَكَانَ شَارِبِي وَفَى فَقَصَّهُ لِي عَلَى سِوَاكٍ» أَوْ قَالَ: «أَقُصُّهُ لَكَ عَلَى سِوَاكٍ؟»
