Hadith 166

Washing the feet, when one is wearing shoes; and it is not sufficient for one to pass a wet hand over the shoes (but one should take off the shoes and wash one's feet).

166. Narrated 'Ubaid bin Juraij: I asked 'Abdullāh bin 'Umar رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُما 'Abdur Raḥmān! I saw you doing four things which I never saw being done by anyone of your companions?" 'Abdullāh bin 'Umar said, "What are those, O Ibn Juraij?" I said, "I never saw you touching any corner (of the Ka'bah) except these (two) facing south (Yemen), and I saw you wearing shoes made of tanned leather and dyeing your hair with Hinnā; (a kind of dye). I also noticed that whenever you were in Makkah, the people assume Ihlāl on seeing the new moon crescent (1st of Dhul-Hijja) while you did not assume the Ihlāl (Ihrām is also called Ihlāl which means 'Loud calling' because a Muḥrim has to recite Talbiya aloud when assuming the state of Ihrām) — till the 8th of Dhul-Hijja (Day of Tarwiya). ‘Abdullāh replied, “Regarding the corners (of Makkah), I never saw Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ touching except those facing south (Yemen) and regarding the tanned leather shoes, no doubt I saw Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ wearing non-hairy shoes, and he used to perform ablution while wearing the shoes (i.e. wash his feet and then put on the shoes). So I love to wear similar shoes. And about the dyeing of hair with Hinnā; no doubt I saw Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ dyeing his hair with it and that is why I like to dye (my hair with it). Regarding Ihlāl, I did not see Allāh’s Messenger ﷺ assuming Ihlāl till he set out for Hajj.”

166 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ المَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ رَأَيْتُكَ تَصْنَعُ أَرْبَعًا لَمْ أَرَ أَحَدًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِكَ يَصْنَعُهَا، قَالَ: وَمَا هِيَ يَا ابْنَ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُكَ لاَ تَمَسُّ مِنَ الأَرْكَانِ إِلَّا اليَمَانِيَّيْنِ، وَرَأَيْتُكَ تَلْبَسُ النِّعَالَ السِّبْتِيَّةَ، وَرَأَيْتُكَ تَصْبُغُ بِالصُّفْرَةِ، وَرَأَيْتُكَ إِذَا كُنْتَ بِمَكَّةَ أَهَلَّ النَّاسُ إِذَا رَأَوُا الْهِلاَلَ وَلَمْ تُهِلَّ أَنْتَ حَتَّى كَانَ يَوْمُ التَّرْوِيَةِ. قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ: أَمَّا الأَرْكَانُ: فَإِنِّي لَمْ «أَرَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَمَسُّ إِلَّا اليَمَانِيَّيْنِ»، وَأَمَّا النِّعَالُ السِّبْتِيَّةُ: فَإِنِّي «رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَلْبَسُ النَّعْلَ الَّتِي لَيْسَ فِيهَا شَعَرٌ وَيَتَوَضَّأُ فِيهَا»، فَأَنَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَلْبَسَهَا، وَأَمَّا الصُّفْرَةُ: فَإِنِّي «رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصْبُغُ بِهَا، فَأَنَا أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَصْبُغَ بِهَا»، وَأَمَّا الإِهْلاَلُ: فَإِنِّي «لَمْ أَرَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُهِلُّ حَتَّى تَنْبَعِثَ بِهِ رَاحِلَتُهُ»
