English translation

1. Ibn ‘Umar narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: “Salāt will not be accepted without purification, nor charity from Ghulūl[1].” (Ṣaḥīh) Hannād said in his narration, “except with purification”[2] [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is the most correct thing on this topic, and the best. There are also narrations on this topic from Abū Al-Malīḥ, from his father; and Abū Hurairah, and Anas. And Abū Al-Malīḥ bin Usāmah's name is 'Āmir, and they also say it was Zāid bin Usāmah bin 'Umaīr Al-Hudhālī.

Arabic text

١ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ‌أَبُو عَوَانَةَ ، عَنْ ‌سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ . (ح) وَحَدَّثَنَا ‌هَنَّادٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌وَكِيعٌ ، عَنْ ‌إِسْرَائِيلَ ، عَنْ ‌سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ ‌مُصْعَبِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ، عَنِ ‌ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَا تُقْبَلُ صَلَاةٌ بِغَيْرِ طُهُورٍ،» وَلَا صَدَقَةٌ مِنْ غُلُولٍ قَالَ هَنَّادٌ فِي حَدِيثِهِ: إِلَّا بِطُهُورٍ. هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ أَصَحُّ شَيْءٍ فِي هَذَا الْبَابِ وَأَحْسَنُ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي الْمَلِيحِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَأَنَسٍ. وَأَبُو الْمَلِيحِ بْنُ أُسَامَةَ اسْمُهُ عَامِرٌ، وَيُقَالُ: زَيْدُ بْنُ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ الْهُذَلِيُّ.

  1. 1

    [1] Ghulūl refers to goods stolen from war booty, or concealed, before it is divided among the soldiers. It also carries the general meaning of unlawful wealth. See Tuhfat Al-Ahwadhi.

  2. 2

    [2] That is, “Salāt will not be accepted, except with purification.” And Hannād is one of the narrators.

Commentary

If a person is at a place where the water for ablution or soil for Tayammum is not available, as sometimes it is the case such as on an aeroplane, the A'immah hold different views regarding this. As for our opinion, the easy solution of it is that two prayers should be combined; combination with the former prayer or with the latter one; and if the journey is long then as a patient keeps medicine with him, likewise a traveler should have soil with him/her so that in the time of need he can make Tayammum. Allāh knows best!
