Chapter: It Is Dislikes To Face The Qiblah While Relieving Oneself.

باب كَرَاهِيَةِ اسْتِقْبَالِ الْقِبْلَةِ عِنْدَ قَضَاءِ الْحَاجَةِ

English narration

Narrated by عبد الله بن عمر العدوي

Marwan al-Asfar said: I saw Ibn Umar make his camel kneel down facing the qiblah, then he sat down urinating in its direction. So I said: Abu Abdur Rahman, has this not been forbidden? He replied: Why not, that was forbidden only in open country; but when there is something between you and the qiblah that conceals you, then there is no harm.

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى بْنِ فَارِسٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا صَفْوَانُ بْنُ عِيسَى ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ ذَكْوَانَ ، عَنْ مَرْوَانَ الأَصْفَرِ ، قَالَ : رَأَيْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ أَنَاخَ رَاحِلَتَهُ مُسْتَقْبِلَ الْقِبْلَةِ ، ثُمَّ جَلَسَ يَبُولُ إِلَيْهَا ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ، أَلَيْسَ قَدْ نُهِيَ عَنْ هَذَا ؟ قَالَ : بَلَى ، "

إِنَّمَا نُهِيَ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فِي الْفَضَاءِ ، فَإِذَا كَانَ بَيْنَكَ وَبَيْنَ الْقِبْلَةِ شَيْءٌ يَسْتُرُكَ ، فَلَا بَأْسَ
