حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ السُّلَمِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا ثَوْرٌ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ شُرَيْحٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي حَىٍّ الْمُؤَذِّنِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ
لاَ يَحِلُّ لِرَجُلٍ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ وَهُوَ حَقِنٌ حَتَّى يَتَخَفَّفَ ثُمَّ سَاقَ نَحْوَهُ عَلَى هَذَا اللَّفْظِ قَالَ وَلاَ يَحِلُّ لِرَجُلٍ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ أَنْ يَؤُمَّ قَوْمًا إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِمْ وَلاَ يَخْتَصَّ نَفْسَهُ بِدَعْوَةٍ دُونَهُمْ فَإِنْ فَعَلَ فَقَدْ خَانَهُمْ

Chain of narrators
- Maḥmūd b. Khālid al-Sulamī
- Aḥmad b. ʿAlī
- Thawr
- Yazīd b. Shurayḥ al-Ḥaḍramī
- Abū Ḥa al-Muʾadhhin
- Abū Hurayrah
- al-Nabī ﷺ
The Prophet ﷺ said: It is not permissible for a man who believes in Allah and in the Last Day that he should say the prayer while he is feeling the call of nature until he becomes light (by relieving himself). Then the narrator Thawr b. Yazid transmitted a similar tradition with the following wordings: "It is not permissible for a man who believes in Allah and in the Last Day that he should lead the people in prayer but with their permission; and that he should not supplicate to Allah exclusively for himself leaving all others. If he did so, he violated trust." Abu Dawud said: This is a tradition reported by the narrators of Syria; no other person has joined them in relating this tradition.

حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ السُّلَمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَوْرٌ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ شُرَيْحٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي حَىٍّ الْمُؤَذِّنِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " لاَ يَحِلُّ لِرَجُلٍ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ وَهُوَ حَقِنٌ حَتَّى يَتَخَفَّفَ ". ثُمَّ سَاقَ نَحْوَهُ عَلَى هَذَا اللَّفْظِ قَالَ " وَلاَ يَحِلُّ لِرَجُلٍ يُؤْمِنُ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الآخِرِ أَنْ يَؤُمَّ قَوْمًا إِلاَّ بِإِذْنِهِمْ وَلاَ يَخْتَصَّ نَفْسَهُ بِدَعْوَةٍ دُونَهُمْ فَإِنْ فَعَلَ فَقَدْ خَانَهُمْ ". قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ هَذَا مِنْ سُنَنِ أَهْلِ الشَّامِ لَمْ يَشْرَكْهُمْ فِيهَا أَحَدٌ
machine translationMaḥmūd b. Khālid al-Sulamī narrated to us: Aḥmad b. ʿAlī narrated to us: Thawr narrated to us, from Yazīd b. Shurayḥ al-Ḥaḍramī, from Abū Ḥayy the muezzin, from Abū Hurayrah, from the Prophet ﷺ, who said: "It is not lawful for a man who believes in Allah and the Last Day to pray while he is holding in urine until he relieves himself." Then he related something similar with this wording. He said: "And it is not lawful for a man who believes in Allah and the Last Day to lead a people in prayer except with their permission, and he must not single himself out for a supplication to the exclusion of them; if he does so, he has betrayed them." Abū Dāwūd said: This is among the practices (sunan) of the people of al-Shām; no one else shares them in it.

machine translationYazīd b. Shurayḥ narrates it, and there is disagreement about him. Thawr b. Yazīd narrated it from Yazīd b. Shurayḥ, from Abū Ḥayy the muezzin, from Abū Hurayrah; Aṣbagh b. Zayd said so, from Manṣūr b. Zādhān, from Thawr b. Yazīd. ʿĪsā b. Yūnus contradicted him and narrated it from Thawr, from Sharḥabīl b. Muslim, from Abū Ḥayy, from Abū Hurayrah, and he erred in saying Sharḥabīl b. Muslim; he only meant Yazīd b. Shurayḥ. Ḥabīb b. Ṣāliḥ contradicted him and narrated it from Yazīd b. Shurayḥ, from Abū Ḥayy the muezzin, from Thawbān, from the Prophet ﷺ. Muʿāwiyah b. Ṣāliḥ contradicted him and narrated it from al-Safar b. Nusayr, from Yazīd b. Shurayḥ, from Abū Umāmah, from the Prophet ﷺ; ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. Mahdī, Ibn Wahb and Zayd b. al-Ḥubāb said so, from Muʿāwiyah. Maʿn b. ʿĪsā contradicted them and narrated it from Muʿāwiyah b. Ṣāliḥ, from al-Safar b. Nusayr, from Yazīd b. Khumayr, from ʿAbdullāh b. ʿAmr, from the Prophet ﷺ: "None of you should come to prayer while holding in urine," only that, and he erred in it. The correct version is from Muʿāwiyah b. Ṣāliḥ, from al-Safar, from Yazīd b. Shurayḥ, from Abū Umāmah, and from Ḥabīb b. Ṣāliḥ, from Yazīd b. Shurayḥ, from Abū Ḥayy, from Thawbān.
