أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ، عَنْ جَوْنِ بْنِ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْمُحَبِّقِ، أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ دَعَا بِمَاءٍ مِنْ عِنْدِ امْرَأَةٍ قَالَتْ مَا عِنْدِي إِلاَّ فِي قِرْبَةٍ لِي مَيْتَةٍ . قَالَ " أَلَيْسَ قَدْ دَبَغْتِهَا " . قَالَتْ بَلَى . قَالَ " فَإِنَّ دِبَاغَهَا ذَكَاتُهَا " .
Translation
Salamah ibn al-Muhabbaq reported: During the campaign of Tabuk, the Prophet asked a woman for water. She said: I have none except in a waterskin made from a dead animal. He asked: Did you tan it? She said yes. He replied: Its tanning is its ritual purification.
