Chapter: Saliva of a Donkey
• I said to Ahmad ibn Hanbal: 'If a donkey snorts and sprays its saliva upon me?' He said: 'Sprinkle it with water.' • I asked Ishaq about the nasal discharge of a donkey? He said: 'It does not need to be washed.'
34 - Jarir informed us, from Mughirah, from al-Sha'bi, who said: 'There is no harm in the snorting of a beast.'
35 - Muhammad ibn Muslim narrated to us, saying: Fudayk ibn Sulayman narrated to us, saying: Al-Awza'i was asked, and it was said to him: 'O Abu 'Amr, what do you say regarding the nasal discharge of a donkey?' He said: 'There is no harm in it.'
36 - Muhammad ibn Yahya narrated to us, saying: 'Abd al-A'la narrated to us, saying: Hisham ibn Hassan was asked about the froth or wetness that comes out of a donkey and touches a garment? He said: 'I believe he should wash it.'
Chapter: Urine of a Donkey
• I asked Ahmad ibn Hanbal, and I said: 'A donkey urinated and sprayed drops onto my garment?' He said: 'It is more beloved to me that you wash it.' • I asked Ishaq, and I said: 'A donkey urinated, and the wind carried that urine, and it touched my face and my clothes, and I do not see any trace of it, but I felt it?' He said: 'If you are certain, then wash it.'
Chapter: Stepping in Donkey Dung and Urine
• I said to Ahmad: 'A man steps in the dung of donkeys while he is wearing leather socks (khuff)?' He said: 'He should wash it. I like for everything from that which is not eaten (of animals) to be washed.' I said: 'This is a very difficult matter, as a traveler enters inns and cannot avoid stepping in wet excrement.' He then said afterwards: 'If it is a small amount, I hope it is fine.'
