(15). 3100. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "This Āyah was revealed about the people of Qubā: In it are men who love to purify themselves. And Allāh loves those who make themselves pure."[2] He said: "They used water to perform Istinjā' so this Āyah was revealed about them." (Hasan) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Gharīb from this route. [He said:] There are narrations on this topic from Abū Ayyūb, Anas bin Mālik and Muḥmmad bin 'Abdullāh bin Salām.

٣١٠٠ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌يُونُسُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ ‌إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ أَبِي مَيْمُونَةَ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي صَالِحٍ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ : عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «نَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ فِي أَهْلِ قُبَاءَ»: {فِيهِ رِجَالٌ يُحِبُّونَ أَنْ يَتَطَهَّرُوا وَاللهُ يُحِبُّ الْمُطَّهِّرِينَ} قَالَ: كَانُوا يَسْتَنْجُونَ بِالْمَاءِ، فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ فِيهِمْ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ وَأَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ سَلَامٍ.

Commentary

This Hadīth makes mention of purifying oneself with water after relieving oneself, purification with water after relieving oneself, is proven through the authentic Aḥādīth. The aim of the Verse is that these people would take great care of both purifications, apparent and hidden. Allāh Almighty loves such pure people. As for the issue of cleansing with stones after relieving oneself, there is no doubt in its status of desirability; though there is no authentic Hadīth with regard to the issue that the people of Qubā would use both substances at a time for purification.
