Hadith #29
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا رَبَاحٌ عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْ
بَةَ أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَامَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ فَبَالَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَتَنَاوَلَهُ النَّاسُ فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَعُوهُ فَأَهْرِيقُوا عَلَى بَوْلِهِ سَجْلَ مَاءٍ أَوْ ذَنُوبًا مِنْ مَاءٍ فَإِنَّمَا بُعِثْتُمْ مُيَسِّرِينَ وَلَمْ تُبْعَثُوا مُعَسِّرِينَ حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ حَدَّثَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ أَعْرَابِيًّا بَالَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَذَكَرَ مَعْنَاهُ

English Translation
It was narrated from Abu Hurayra (رضي الله عنه) — via Ibrahim ibn Khalid, from Rabah, from Ma'mar, from al-Zuhri, from 'Ubaydullah ibn 'Abdillah ibn 'Utba — that Abu Hurayra said: 'A Bedouin stood up and urinated in the mosque. The people grabbed at him [to stop him], but the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to them: "Leave him! Pour a bucket of water — or a pail of water — over his urine. You were sent to make things easy, not to make things difficult."' [Also narrated via Harun → Ibn Wahb → Yunus → Ibn Shihab → 'Ubaydullah ibn 'Abdillah → Abu Hurayra — same meaning.]
