with pebbles, he should use an odd number. If he does so, he has done well;
but if not, there is no harm.
If anyone eats, he should throw away what he
removes with a toothpick and swallow what sticks to his tongue. If he does so,
he has done well; if not, there is no harm. If anyone goes to relieve himself,
he should conceal himself, and if all he can do is to collect a heap of send,
he should sit with his back to it, for the devil makes sport with the
posteriors of the children of Adam. If he does so, he has done well; but if
not, there is no harm.

reached the Prophet, we did not find him in his house. We found there Aisha,
the Mother of the Believers. She ordered that a dish called Khazirah should be
prepared for us. It was then prepared. A tray containing dates was then
presented to us. (The narrator Qutaybah did not mention the word qina', tray).
Then the Messenger of Allah
(peace_be_upon_him) came. He asked: Has anything been served to you or ordered
for you? We replied: Yes, Messenger of Allah. While we were sitting in the
company of the Messenger of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) we suddenly saw that a
shepherd was driving a herd of sheep to their fold. He had with him a
newly-born lamb that was crying.
He (the Prophet) asked him: What did it bear,
O so and so? He replied: A ewe. He then said: Slaughter for us in its place a
sheep. Do not think that we are slaughtering it for you. We have one hundred
sheep and we do not want their number to increase. Whenever a ewe is born, we
slaughter a sheep in its place.
(The narrator says that the Prophet
(peace_be_upon_him) used the word la tahsabanna, do not think).
I (the narrator Laqit) then said: Messenger
of Allah, I have a wife who has something (wrong) in her tongue, i.e. she is
insolent. He said: Then divorce her. I said: Messenger of Allah, she had
company with me and I have children from her. He said: Then ask her (to obey
you). If there is something good in her, she will do so (obey); and do not
beat your wife as you beat your slave-girl.
I said: Messenger of Allah, tell me about
ablution. He said: Perform ablution in full and make the fingers go through
the beard and snuff with water well except when you are fasting.

It has prevented me from praying and fasting.
He said: I suggest that you should use
cotton, for it absorbs the blood. She replied: It is too copious for that. He

keeps flowing. The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) said: I shall give you
two commands; whichever of them you follow, that will be sufficient for you
without the other, but you know best whether you are strong enough to follow
both of them.

observe your menses for six or seven days, Allah alone knows which it should
be; then wash. And when you see that you are purified and quite clean, pray
during twenty-three or twenty-four days and nights and fast, for that will be
enough for you, and do so every month, just as women menstruate and are
purified at the time of their menstruation and their purification.

noon (Zuhr) prayer and advance the afternoon ('Asr) prayer, to wash, and then
combine the noon and the afternoon prayer; to delay the sunset prayer and
advance the night prayer, to wash, and then combine the two prayers, do so:

I said: Yes. He then said: Set yourself right
(i.e. tie some cloth to prevent bleeding), then take a vessel of water and put
some salt in it, and then wash the blood from the back of the saddle, and then
return to your mount. When the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) conquered
Khaybar, he gave us a portion of the booty. Whenever the woman became purified
from her menses, she would put salt in water. And when she died, she left a
will to put salt in the water for washing her (after death).
