حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يَحْيَى الضَّبِّيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ عَنْ أُمِّهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ
عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَالَ فَقَامَ عُمَرُ خَلْفَهُ بِكُوزٍ فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا يَا عُمَرُ قَالَ مَاءٌ تَوَضَّأْ بِهِ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ مَا أُمِرْتُ كُلَّمَا بُلْتُ أَنْ أَتَوَضَّأَ وَلَوْ فَعَلْتُ ذَلِكَ كَانَتْ سُنَّةً

English Translation
It was narrated from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ urinated, Umar stood behind him with a vessel of water. The Prophet ﷺ asked: "What is this, O Umar?" He said: "Water for you to perform ablution with, O Messenger of Allah." He said: "I have not been commanded to perform ablution every time I urinate. Were I to do that, it would become a Sunnah."
