English translation

341. It was narrated from Kabshah bint Ka'b bin Mālik that Abū Qatādah entered upon her, then she narrated the following: “I poured some water for him for Wudū', and a cat came and drank from it, so he titled the vessel for it to drink.” Kabshah said: “He saw me looking at him and said: ‘Are you surprised, O daughter of my brother?’ I said: ‘Yes.’ He said: ‘The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: They are not impure, rather they are among the males and females (animals) who go around among you.’” (Sahih)

Arabic text

340 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ حُمَيْدَةَ بِنْتِ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ رِفَاعَةَ، عَنْ كَبْشَةَ بِنْتِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ: أَنَّ أَبَا قَتَادَةَ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا - ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ كَلِمَةً مَعْنَاهَا - فَسَكَبْتُ لَهُ وَضُوءًا، فَجَاءَتْ هِرَّةٌ فَشَرِبَتْ مِنْهُ، فَأَصْغَى لَهَا الْإِنَاءَ حَتَّى شَرِبَتْ. قَالَتْ كَبْشَةُ: فَرَآنِي أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ: أَتَعْجَبِينَ يَا ابْنَةَ أَخِي؟ قُلْتُ: نَعَمْ. قَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «إِنَّهَا ليْسَتْ بِنَجَسٍ , إِنَّمَا هِيَ مِنَ الطَّوَّافِينَ عَليْكُمْ وَالطَّوَّافَاتِ»
