Arabic Text

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ الْبَزَّازُ الرَّازِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُبَشِّرٌ الْحَلَبِيُّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ أَبِي غَسَّانَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أُبَىُّ بْنُ كَعْبٍ، أَنَّ الْفُتْيَا الَّتِي، كَانُوا يُفْتُونَ أَنَّ الْمَاءَ مِنَ الْمَاءِ كَانَتْ رُخْصَةً رَخَّصَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي بَدْءِ الإِسْلاَمِ ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِالاِغْتِسَالِ بَعْدُ ‏.‏
