Hadith 36

Sahih Bukhari

Book 4: Ablutions (Wudu')

Chapter 33

What is said regarding the water with which human hair has been washed

باب الْمَاءِ الَّذِي يُغْسَلُ بِهِ شَعَرُ الإِنْسَانِ

‘Ata’ saw no harm in making threads and ropes out of human hair. The utilization of the thing which is licked or eaten by a dog, and the passing of dogs through the mosque. Az-Zuhri said, “It is permissible for one to perform ablution with water that has been licked by a dog, provided that there is no water except that.” Sufyan said, “This is the true religious verdict: Allah جل جلاله said: “And you find no water, then perform Tayammum.” (V.4:43).
وَكَانَ عَطَاءٌ لاَ يَرَى بِهِ بَأْسًا أَنْ يُتَّخَذَ مِنْهَا الْخُيُوطُ وَالْحِبَالُ، وَسُؤْرِ الْكِلاَبِ وَمَمَرِّهَا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ. وَقَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ إِذَا وَلَغَ فِي إِنَاءٍ لَيْسَ لَهُ وَضُوءٌ غَيْرُهُ يَتَوَضَّأُ بِهِ. وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ هَذَا الْفِقْهُ بِعَيْنِهِ، يَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى: {فَلَمْ تَجِدُوا مَاءً فَتَيَمَّمُوا} وَهَذَا مَاءٌ، وَفِي النَّفْسِ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ، يَتَوَضَّأُ بِهِ وَيَتَيَمَّمُ.
Sahih al-Bukhari 170
حَدَّثَنَا مَالِكُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ، قَالَ قُلْتُ لِعَبِيدَةَ عِنْدَنَا مِنْ شَعَرِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَصَبْنَاهُ مِنْ قِبَلِ أَنَسٍ، أَوْ مِنْ قِبَلِ أَهْلِ أَنَسٍ فَقَالَ لأَنْ تَكُونَ عِنْدِي شَعَرَةٌ مِنْهُ أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا وَمَا فِيهَا‏.‏
Ibn Seereen:

I said to `Abida, "I have some of the hair of the Prophet (ﷺ) which I got from Anas or from his family." `Abida replied. "No doubt if I had a single hair of that it would have been dearer to me than the whole world and whatever is in it."
