أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ الْحَرَّانِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ عَنِ الْجُلَاحِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ الْمَخْزُومِيِّ عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ
أَتَى رِجَالٌ مِنْ بَنِي مُدْلِجٍ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّا أَصْحَابُ هَذَا الْبَحْرِ نُعَالِجُ الصَّيْدَ عَلَى رَمَثٍ فَنَعْزُبُ فِيهِ اللَّيْلَةَ وَاللَّيْلَتَيْنِ وَالثَّلَاثَ وَالْأَرْبَعَ وَنَحْمِلُ مَعَنَا مِنَ الْعَذْبِ لِشِفَاهِنَا فَإِنْ نَحْنُ تَوَضَّأْنَا بِهِ خَشِينَا عَلَى أَنْفُسِنَا وَإِنْ نَحْنُ آثَرْنَا بِأَنْفُسِنَا وَتَوَضَّأْنَا مِنَ الْبَحْرِ وَجَدْنَا فِي أَنْفُسِنَا مِنْ ذَلِكَ فَخَشِينَا أَنْ لَا يَكُونَ طَهُورًا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «تَوَضَّئُوا مِنْهُ فَإِنَّهُ الطَّاهِرُ مَاؤُهُ الْحَلَالُ مَيْتَتُهُ»

✧ Some men from Banu Mudlij came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said, "O Messenger of Allah, we are people of this sea, fishing on rafts, so we stay out on it for a night, two nights, three, and four, and we carry fresh water with us for our lips. If we perform ablution with it, we fear for our lives, but if we prefer ourselves and perform ablution from the sea, we find within ourselves something from that, so we fear it may not be purifying." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Perform ablution from it, for its water is pure and its dead is lawful."
