حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَبِي حَرْبِ بْنِ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ عَنْ أَبِي الْأَسْوَدِ الدِّيْلِيِّ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ فِي الرَّضِيعِ يُنْضَحُ بَوْلُ الْغُلَامِ وَيُغْسَلُ بَوْلُ الْجَارِيَةِ قَالَ قَتَادَةُ وَهَذَا مَا لَمْ يَطْعَمَا الطَّعَامَ فَإِذَا طَعِمَا غُسِلَا جَمِيعًا
مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 757
It was narrated from 'Ali bin Abi Taltb (RA) that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said concerning the nursing infant: "Sprinkle water on the urine of a boy and wash the urine of a girl." Qatadah said: This applies so long as they are not eating solid food; if they arc eating solid food, then it is to be washed in both cases.
