Arabic text

3720 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عُبَيْدَ اللَّهِ ابْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ: «أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى عَنْ اخْتِنَاثِ الْأَسْقِيَةِ»

Commentary

Al-Khaṭṭābī mentioned that perhaps the author considers this narration an indication that there is an exception in the case of a small waterskin. Most of the scholars have explained that the reason for this prohibition is that one can not see what is coming out of the opening, and something dangerous might have gotten into the waterskin.
