Commentary
These Ahâdîth perhaps indicate that, after one eats food that has been touched by fire, it is recommended (Mustahabb) for one to perform ablution, or, as seems to be the case, the command to perform ablution after eating food that has been touched by fire has been abrogated. As is clear from the Ahâdîth of the upcoming chapter, the Prophet ﷺ in the beginning gave this
command, but later he himself did not put it into practice, which clearly indicates that the said command was abrogated. The Companions also abandoned following the same command, and so most jurists and Hadīth scholars agree that that command was in fact abrogated.
