Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَوْدُودٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي حَدْرَدٍ الأَسْلَمِيِّ، سَمِعْتُ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، يَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " مَنْ دَخَلَ هَذَا الْمَسْجِدَ فَبَزَقَ فِيهِ أَوْ تَنَخَّمَ فَلْيَحْفِرْ فَلْيَدْفِنْهُ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ فَلْيَبْزُقْ فِي ثَوْبِهِ ثُمَّ لْيَخْرُجْ بِهِ " .
Translation
Al-Qaʿnabi narrated to us: Abu Mawdud narrated to us, from ʿAbd al-Rahman ibn Abi Hadad al-Aslami, who said: I heard Abu Hurayrah say that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: ‘Whoever enters this mosque and spits or brings up phlegm in it, let him dig and bury it. If he does not do that, let him spit into his garment, then leave with it.’
