Al-Lu'lu Wal-MarjanHadith Number 488
حديث عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ، قَالَتْ: كَانَ النَّاسُ يَنْتَابُونَ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ مِنْ مَنَازِلِهِمْ وَالْعَوَالِي، فَيَأْتُونَ فِي الْغُبَارِ، يُصِيبُهُمُ الْغُبَارُ وَالْعَرَقُ، فَيَخْرُجُ مِنْهُمُ الْعَرَقَ فَأَتَى رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ إِنْسَانٌ مِنْهُمْ وَهُوَ عِنْدِي، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: لَوْ أَنَّكُمْ تَطَهَّرْتُمْ لِيَوْمِكُمْ هذَا.
A'isha Narrated from:
The people used to come from their abodes and from Al-'Awâli (i.e. outskirts of Al-Madîna up to a distance of four miles or more from Al-Madîna). They used to pass through dust and used to be drenched in sweat and covered with dust; so sweat used to trickle from them. One of them came to Allâh's Messenger ﷺ who was in my house. The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "I wish that you keep yourself pure and clean on this day of yours (i.e. take a bath)." ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 25, Vol. 2)
