حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثَنَا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ أَنْبَأَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ بِلَالٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ أَبِي عَمْرٍو مَوْلَى الْمُطَّلِبِ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ

أَنَّ رَجُلَيْنِ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِرَاقِ أَتَيَاهُ فَسَأَلَاهُ عَنِ الْغُسْلِ فِي يَوْمِ الْجُمُعَةِ أَوَاجِبٌ هُوَ؟ فَقَالَ لَهُمَا ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ مَنِ اغْتَسَلَ فَهُوَ أَحْسَنُ وَأَطْهَرُ وَسَأُخْبِرُكُمْ لِمَاذَا بَدَأَ الْغُسْلَ كَانَ النَّاسُ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ مُحْتَاجِينَ يَلْبَسُونَ الصُّوفَ وَيَسْقُونَ النَّخْلَ عَلَى ظُهُورِهِمْ وَكَانَ الْمَسْجِدُ ضَيِّقًا مُقَارِبَ السَّقْفِ فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَوْمَ الْجُمُعَةِ فِي يَوْمٍ صَائِفٍ شَدِيدِ الْحَرِّ وَمِنْبَرُهُ قَصِيرٌ إِنَّمَا هُوَ دَرَجَاتٌ فَخَطَبَ النَّاسَ فَعَرِقَ فِي الصُّوفِ فَثَارَتْ أَرْوَاحُهُمْ رِيحَ الْعَرَقِ وَالصُّوفِ حَتَّى كَانَ يُؤْذِي بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا حَتَّى بَلَغَتْ أَرْوَاحُهُمْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَهُوَ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَقَالَ «أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِذَا كَانَ هَذَا الْيَوْمُ فَاغْتَسِلُوا وَلْيَمَسَّ أَحَدُكُمْ أَطْيَبَ مَا يَجِدُ مِنْ طِيبِهِ أَوْ دُهْنِهِ»

✧ Two men from Iraq came to him and asked him about performing the ghusl (ritual bath) on Friday. They asked if it was obligatory. Ibn Abbas said to them, "Whoever performs the ghusl, it is better and purer." Then he informed them of the reason why the ghusl was initiated. During the time of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, people would wear wool and drink palm juice, which would cause sweat and emit an odor. The mosque was also small and had a low ceiling. One Friday, the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ came out for the sermon on a hot summer day, and the pulpit was short and had steps. As he preached to the people, he sweated, and the scent of his sweat mixed with the scent of wool, causing discomfort to some of them. The smell reached the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ while he was on the pulpit, and he said, "O people, when this day comes, perform the ghusl and let each of you apply the best fragrance or oil he can find."
