13. Hudhaifah narrated: "Allāh's Messenger ﷺ came to a waste area used by people, so he urinated on it while standing. I brought him the (water for) Wudū. Then I left to be away from him, but he called me until I was behind him. So he performed Wudū and wiped (Masaha) over his Khuff." (Ṣaḥīḥ)
[Abū 'Eisā said: I heard Al-Jārūd saying: "I heard Waki' narrating this Hadīth from Al-A'mash, then Waki' said, 'This is the most correct Hadīth reported from the Prophet ﷺ about wiping (over Khuff).'" And I heard Abū 'Ammār Al-Husain bin Huraith saying: "I heard Waki', then he mentioned a similar narration.]
Abū 'Eisā said: Like this was reported by Maṣṣūr, and 'Ubaidah Aḍ-Dabbī, from Abū Wā'il from Hudhaifah, (all) similar to the narration of Al-A'mash. Hammād bin Abū Sulaimān and 'Āsim bin Bahdalah reported it from Abū Wā'il from Al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah, from the Prophet ﷺ. But the Hadīth of Abū Wā'il from Hudhaifah is more correct.
There are those among the people of knowledge who have permitted urinating while standing.
[Abū 'Eisā said: It was reported
from ‘Abīdah bin ‘Amr As-Salmānī by Ibrāhīm An-Nakha‘ī, and ‘Abīdah is one of the major Tābi‘īn, it is reported that ‘Abīdah said, “I accepted Islam before the Prophet ﷺ died by two years.” ‘Ubaidah Ad-Dabbī, the companion of Ibrāhīm, is ‘Ubaidah bin Mu‘attib Ad-Dabbī, and his Kunya is Abū ‘Abdul-Karīm].

Commentary
The public garbage place is normally soft; there is no risk of splashing urine drops, so he ﷺ did so because of a reason or just for the sake of showing permission; and for the purpose of hiding himself, he ﷺ indicated to Hudhaifah to stand behind him.
