وَعَن دَاوُد بن صَالح بن دِينَار التمار عَنْ أُمِّهِ أَنَّ مَوْلَاتَهَا أَرْسَلَتْهَا بِهَرِيسَةٍ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: فَوَجَدْتُهَا تُصَلِّي فَأَشَارَتْ إِلَيَّ أَنْ ضَعِيهَا فَجَاءَتْ هِرَّةٌ فَأَكَلَتْ مِنْهَا فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَتْ عَائِشَةُ مِنْ صَلَاتِهَا أَكَلَتْ مِنْ حَيْثُ أَكَلَتِ الْهِرَّةُ فَقَالَتْ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «إِنَّهَا لَيست بِنَجس إِنَّمَا هِيَ من الطوافين عَلَيْكُم» . وَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يتَوَضَّأ بفضلها. رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد
Dāwūd ibn Ṣāliḥ ibn Dīnār al-Tammār reported from his mother that her mistress sent her with some harīsa to ʿĀʾisha. She found ʿĀʾisha praying, and ʿĀʾisha gestured for her to set it down. A cat came and ate from it. When ʿĀʾisha finished praying, she ate from the place where the cat had eaten and said: ‘The Messenger of Allah said: “It is not impure; it is one of those that move about among you.”’ She added: ‘I saw the Messenger of Allah perform ablution with the water left over by it.’ Abū Dāwūd transmitted it.
