# Sahih al-Bukhari 1.4.178 — Ablutions (Wudu')

## Arabic
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ مُنْذِرٍ أَبِي يَعْلَى الثَّوْرِيِّ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ ابْنِ الْحَنَفِيَّةِ، قَالَ قَالَ عَلِيٌّ كُنْتُ رَجُلاً مَذَّاءً، فَاسْتَحْيَيْتُ أَنْ أَسْأَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَأَمَرْتُ الْمِقْدَادَ بْنَ الأَسْوَدِ فَسَأَلَهُ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ فِيهِ الْوُضُوءُ ‏"‏‏.‏ وَرَوَاهُ شُعْبَةُ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ‏.‏

## English Translation (Muhammad Muhsin Khan)
> I used to get emotional urethral discharges frequently and felt shy to ask Allah's Apostle about it. So I requested AlMiqdad bin Al-Aswad to ask (the Prophet ) about it. Al-Miqdad asked him and he replied, "On has to perform ablution (after it)."
