أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، وَالْحَارِثُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ، قِرَاءَةً عَلَيْهِ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ، وَاللَّفْظُ، لَهُ عَنِ ابْنِ الْقَاسِمِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ رَافِعِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا أَيُّوبَ الأَنْصَارِيَّ، وَهُوَ بِمِصْرَ يَقُولُ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَدْرِي كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ بِهَذِهِ الْكَرَايِيسِ وَقَدْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ "‏ إِذَا ذَهَبَ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى الْغَائِطِ أَوِ الْبَوْلِ فَلاَ يَسْتَقْبِلِ الْقِبْلَةَ وَلاَ يَسْتَدْبِرْهَا ‏"‏ .

বাংলা অনুবাদ
। মুহাম্মদ ইবনু সালামা ও হারিস ইবনু মিসকীন (রহঃ) ... রাফি ইবনু ইসহাক (রহঃ) থেকে বর্ণিত। তিনি আবূ আইয়্যূব আনসারী (রাঃ) এর মিসর অবস্থানকালে তাঁকে বলতে শুনেছেন- আল্লাহর শপথ! আমি জানি না কিভাবে (মিসরের) এই পায়খানা ব্যবহার করবো। অথচ রাসূলুল্লাহ সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম বলেছেনঃ তোমাদের মধ্যে কেউ যখন মল-মূত্র ত্যাগের উদ্দেশ্যে গমন করবে, তখন সে যেন কিবলামুখী হয়ে ও কিবলাকে পেছনে রেখে না বসে।
