29. It was narrated that 'Aishah said: "Whoever tells you that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ urinated standing up, do not believe him, for he would not urinate except while squatting." (Hasan)

Arabic text

٢٩ - أَخْبَرَنَا ‌عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا ‌شَرِيكٌ ، عَنِ ‌الْمِقْدَامِ بْنِ شُرَيْحٍ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ ‌عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: «مَنْ حَدَّثَكُمْ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَالَ قَائِمًا فَلَا تُصَدِّقُوهُ، مَا كَانَ يَبُولُ إِلَّا جَالِسًا».

Commentary

Here, 'Aishah ﷺ relates the Prophet's ﷺ usual practice. Apparently, 'Aishah ﷺ heard about the report which indicated that, at least on one occasion, the Prophet ﷺ urinated while standing up. Apparently, it was something the Prophet ﷺ did outside of the home; thus it was only natural that 'Aishah ﷺ had no knowledge about it. This Hadīth, therefore, does not negate the previously mentioned authentic Hadīth - the Hadīth which describes how the Prophet ﷺ once urinated while standing up.
