حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النُّفَيْلِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَکِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَجْلَانَ عَنْ الْقَعْقَاعِ بْنِ حَکِيمٍ عَنْ أَبِي صَالِحٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّمَا أَنَا لَکُمْ بِمَنْزِلَةِ الْوَالِدِ أُعَلِّمُکُمْ فَإِذَا أَتَی أَحَدُکُمْ الْغَائِطَ فَلَا يَسْتَقْبِلْ الْقِبْلَةَ وَلَا يَسْتَدْبِرْهَا وَلَا يَسْتَطِبْ بِيَمِينِهِ وَکَانَ يَأْمُرُ بِثَلَاثَةِ أَحْجَارٍ وَيَنْهَی عَنْ الرَّوْثِ وَالرِّمَّةِ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 8
Narrated Abu Hurairah: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: I am like father to you. When any of you goes to privy, he should not face or turn his back towards the qiblah. He should not cleanse with his right hand. He (the Prophet, ﷺ) also commanded the Muslims to use three stones and forbade them to use dung or decayed bone.
