Arabic hadith text

وَعَن أم قيس بنت مُحصن: أَنَّهَا أَتَتْ بِابْنٍ لَهَا صَغِيرٍ لَمْ يَأْكُلِ الطَّعَامَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَجْلَسَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حِجْرِهِ فَبَالَ عَلَى ثَوْبِهِ فَدَعَا بِمَاء فنضحه وَلم يغسلهُ

Translation

Umm Qays bint Miḥṣan said: ‘I brought a young son of mine, who had not yet begun eating solid food, to the Messenger of Allah. He sat him on his lap, and the child urinated on his garment. He called for water and sprinkled it over the spot without washing it.’
