حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، وَعَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ، وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ أَكَلَ النَّبِيُّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ خُبْزًا وَلَحْمًا وَلَمْ يَتَوَضَّئُوا ‏.‏

Summary of Sunan Ibn Majah Hadith 489

This Hadith from Jabir bin Abdullah states that the Prophet, Abu Bakr, and Umar ate bread and meat and did not perform ablution after that. It is useful for searches like “does eating meat break wudu” and “Prophet ate meat and did not make wudu.” The narration is short, but its detail is clear: a meal was eaten, and no new ablution is mentioned afterward. The text does not discuss every type of food or every condition. It simply reports this specific case with bread and meat. The practical message is that not every meal is shown here as requiring a new wudu, and the actions of the Prophet and the two Companions were remembered.

What we learn from this hadith

  • The Hadith reports bread and meat being eaten.
  • It states that no ablution was performed after that meal.
  • The narration preserves the practice of the Prophet, Abu Bakr, and Umar in this case.
