حَكِّ الْمُخَاطِ بِالْحَصَى مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ

Scraping off nasal mucus with pebbles in the mosque

أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَأَى نُخَامَةً فِي جِدَارِ الْمَسْجِدِ ، فَتَنَاوَلَ حَصَاةً فَحَكَّهَا ، فَقَالَ : إِذَا تَنَخَّمَ أَحَدُكُمْ ، فَلَا يَتَنَخَّمَنَّ قِبَلَ وَجْهِهِ ، وَلَا عَنْ يَمِينِهِ ، وَلْيَبْصُقْ عَنْ يَسَارِهِ أَوْ تَحْتَ قَدَمِهِ الْيُسْرَى.

حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ، وَأَبَا سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَاهُ ،

Translation

Abu Hurairah and Abu Sa'id al-Khudri reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw sputum on the wall of the mosque. He took a pebble, scraped it off and said, “When one of you brings up phlegm, let him by no means expel it in front of his face or to his right, but let him spit to his left or under his left foot.”

Abu Huraira und Abu Sa'id al-Chudri berichteten, dass der Gesandte Allahs ﷺ Auswurf an der Wand der Moschee sah. Da nahm er ein Steinchen, kratzte ihn ab und sagte: „Wenn einer von euch Schleim aushustet, soll er ihn keinesfalls vor sein Gesicht und nicht zu seiner Rechten aushusten, sondern er soll zu seiner Linken oder unter seinen linken Fuß spucken.“
