أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَسْمَاءَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَهْدِيُّ بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا وَاصِلٌ مَوْلَى أَبِي عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَقِيلٍ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ يَعْمَرَ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ الدِّيلِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ
«فِي بُضْعِ أَحَدِكُمْ صَدَقَةٌ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ أَيَأْتِي أَحَدُنَا شَهْوَتَهُ وَيَكُونُ لَهُ فِيهِ أَجْرٌ فَقَالَ «أَرَأَيْتُمْ لَوْ وَضَعَهَا فِي الْحَرَامِ أَكَانَ عَلَيْهِ فِيهِ وِزْرٌ فَكَذَلِكَ إِذَا وَضَعَهَا فِي الْحَلَالِ كَانَ لَهُ أَجْرٌ»

✧ “In the private relations of one of you there is charity.” They said: O Messenger of Allah, if one of us fulfills his desire, will he have a reward for it? He said: “Do you think that if he were to put it in what is forbidden, there would be a sin upon him? Likewise, if he puts it in what is lawful, there is a reward for him.”

يرويه واصل مولى أبي عيينة واختلف عنه فرواه مهدي بن ميمون عن واصل عن يحيى بن عقيل عن يحيى بن يعمر عن أبي الأسود عن أبي ذر ورواه هشام بن حسان وحماد بن زيد وعباد بن عباد المهلبي عن واصل عن يحيى بن عقيل عن يحيى بن يعمر عن أبي ذر وقول مهدي هو الصحيح
machine translationWāṣil, the freedman (mawlā) of Abū ʿUyaynah, transmits it, and there is disagreement about him. Mahdī b. Maymūn narrated it from Wāṣil, from Yaḥyā b. ʿAqīl, from Yaḥyā b. Yaʿmar, from Abū al-Aswad, from Abū Dharr. Hishām b. Ḥassān, Ḥammād b. Zayd and ʿAbbād b. ʿAbbād al-Muhallabī narrated it from Wāṣil, from Yaḥyā b. ʿAqīl, from Yaḥyā b. Yaʿmar, from Abū Dharr. The statement of Mahdī is the correct (ṣaḥīḥ) one.
