Chapter 1 · Purification (Kitab Al-Taharah)فِي مِقْدَارِ الْمَاءِ الَّذِي يُجْزِئُ فِي الْغُسْلِ
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَغْتَسِلُ مِنْ إِنَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ هُوَ الْفَرَقُ مِنَ الْجَنَابَةِ ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد: وَرَوَى ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد: قَالَ مَعْمَرٌ: عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ، فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ، قَالَتْ: كُنْتُ أَغْتَسِلُ أَنَا وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ إِنَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ، فِيهِ قَدْرُ الْفَرَقِ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد: سَمِعْت أَحْمَدَ بْنَ حَنْبَلٍ، يَقُولُ: الْفَرَقُ: سِتَّةُ عَشَرَ رِطْلًا، وَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ: صَاعُ ابْنِ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ خَمْسَةُ أَرْطَالٍ وَثُلُثٌ، قَالَ: فَمَنْ قَالَ ثَمَانِيَةُ أَرْطَالٍ ؟ قَالَ: لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ بِمَحْفُوظٍ، قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد: وسَمِعْت أَحْمَدَ يَقُولُ: مَنْ أَعْطَى فِي صَدَقَةِ الْفِطْرِ بِرِطْلِنَا هَذَا خَمْسَةَ أَرْطَالٍ وَثُلُثًا، فَقَدْ أَوْفَى، قِيلَ: الصَّيْحَانِيُّ ثَقِيلٌ، قَالَ: الصَّيْحَانِيُّ أَطْيَبُ، قَالَ: لَا أَدْرِي.

The Amount Of Water With Which Ghusl Can Be Performed
The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم used to take bath with from a vessel (which contained seven to eight seers, i. e., fifteen to sixteen pounds) because of sexual intercourse. Abu Dawud said: The version narrated by Mu’ammar on the authority of al-Zuhri has: She (Aishah رضی اللہ عنہا) said: I and the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم took a bath from a vessel which was equal to al-faraq in measurement (i.e., containing water about seven or eight seers). Abu Dawud said: Ibn ‘Uyainah also narrated like the version of Malik. Abu Dawud said; I heard Ahmad bin Hanbal say: Al-Faraq contains sixteen rotls (of water). I also heard him say: The sa’of of Ibn Abi Dhi’b contained 5 rotls (of water). The view that a sa’ contains eight rotls (of water) is not safe. Abu Dawud said: I heard Ahmad (b. Hanbal) say: Whoever gave 5 1/3 rotls (measuring) with our rotl alms of fitr (sadaqat al-fitr), he gave in full, Thereupon he was questioned: Are the dates called al-saihani heavier (can one sa’ of them be given as alms of fitr)? He replied: The dates called al-saihani are good. But I do not know (whether water is heavier or the dates).
