وَعَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ‏- رضى الله عنه ‏- قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ ‏- صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏-{ إِنَّ اَلْمَاءَ طَهُورٌ لَا يُنَجِّسُهُ شَيْءٌ } أَخْرَجَهُ اَلثَّلَاثَةُ ¹ ‏ وَصَحَّحَهُ أَحْمَدُ ² ‏ .‏

^‏1 ‏- صحيح: رواه أبو داود (66)‏، والنسائي (174)‏، والترمذي (66)‏ عن أبي سعيد الخدري، قال: قيل: يا رسول الله (!)‏ أنتوضأ (رواية: أتتوضأ)‏ من بئر بضاعة، وهي بئر يلقى فيها الحيض، ولحوم الكلاب، والنتن؟! فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: .‏.‏ الحديث.‏ قلت: وهو حديث صحيح، وإن أعل بجهالة أحد رواته، لكن له طرق وشواهد أخرى يصح بها الحديث، كما تجد ذلك مفصلا "بالأصل".‏ فائدة: قوله في الحديث: "وهي بئر يلقى فيها الحيض، ولحوم الكلاب، والنتن".‏ قال الخطابي عن ذلك في "معالم السنن" (1/37)‏: "يتوهم كثير من الناس إذا سمع هذا الحديث أن هذا كان منهم عادة، وأنهم كانوا يأتون هذا الفعل قصدا وعمدا، وهذا لا يجوز أن يظن بذمي، بل بوثني، فضلا عن مسلم! ولم يزل من عادة الناس قديما وحديثا؛ مسلمهم وكافرهم: تنزيه المياه، وصونها عن النجاسات، فكيف يظن بأهل ذلك الزمان، وهم أعلى طبقات أهل الدين، وأفضل جماعة المسلمين، والماء في بلادهم أعز، والحاجة إليه أمس، أن يكون هذا صنيعهم بالماء، امتهانهم له؟!.‏ وقد لعن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم من تغوط في موارد الماء ومشارعه، فكيف من اتخذ عيون الماء ومنابعه رصدا للأنجاس، ومطرحا للأقذار؟ هذا ما لا يليق بحالهم.‏ وإنما كان هذا من أجل أن هذه البئر في صدور من الأرض، وأن السيول كانت تكسح هذه الأقذار من الطرق والأفنية، وتحملها فتلقيها فيها، وكان الماء لكثرته لا تؤثر فيه وقوع هذه الأشياء ولا يغيره".‏

Do so every month just as the other women menstruate (and are purified). But if you are strong enough to delay the Dhuhr prayer and advance the Asr prayer, then make Ghusl when your purified and combine the Dhuhr and the Asr prayers together; then delay the Maghrib prayer and advance the Isha prayer, and perform Ghusl and combine the two prayers, do so. Do so, and then wash at dawn and pray Fajr. This is how you may pray and fast if you have the ability to do so." And he said, "That is the more preferable way to me."
