Arabic hadith text

وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَدْخُلُ الْخَلَاءَ فَأَحْمِلُ أَنَا وَغُلَامٌ إِدَاوَةً مِنْ مَاءٍ وَعَنَزَةً يستنجي بِالْمَاءِ

Translation

Anas reported: ‘When the Messenger of God went to the privy, a boy and I would carry a water vessel and a short spear, and he would cleanse himself with the water.’

Translation notes

  • The accompanying grading labels this report muttafaq ʿalayh (‘agreed upon’). The Arabic says ‘a boy’ and names a ʿanaza, a short spear or pointed staff.
