(52) – باب فِي الْمِنْدِيلِ
(52) – Regarding handkerchiefs
Sunan Abu Dawood 3847
Ibn ‘Abbas reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying :
When one of you eats, he must not wipe his hand with a handkerchief till he licks it or gives it to someone to lick.
حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ " إِذَا أَكَلَ أَحَدُكُمْ فَلاَ يَمْسَحَنَّ يَدَهُ بِالْمِنْدِيلِ حَتَّى يَلْعَقَهَا أَوْ يُلْعِقَهَا " .
