حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النَّاقِدُ، حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، عَنْ يُوسُفَ بْنِ أَبِي بُرْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، حَدَّثَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ

رضى الله عنها أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ إِذَا خَرَجَ مِنَ الْغَائِطِ قَالَ: «غُفْرَانَكَ»

Ummul Muminin: When the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) came out of the privy, he used to say: “Grant me Thy forgiveness.”

‘আয়িশাহ্ (রাঃ) বলেন, নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম যখন পায়খানা থেকে বের হতেন, তখন বলতেনঃ ‘গুফরানাকা’ (অর্থঃ হে আল্লাহ! আমি আপনার নিকট ক্ষমা চাই)।[1] সহীহ।

ابوبردہ کہتے ہیں کہ مجھ سے ام المؤمنین عائشہ رضی اللہ عنہا نے بیان کیا ہے کہ نبی اکرم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم جب بیت الخلاء ( پاخانہ ) سے نکلتے تو فرماتے تھے: «غفرانك» اے اللہ! میں تیری بخشش چاہتا ہوں ۔

Telah menceritakan kepada kami [Amru bin Muhammad An Naqid] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Hasyim bin Al Qasim] telah menceritakan kepada kami [Isra`il] dari [Yusuf bin Abu Burdah] dari [Ayahnya] telah menceritakan kepada saya [Aisyah] radliallahu 'anha bahwasanya Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam apabila keluar dari WC, beliau mengucapkan: "GHUFRAANAKA (Aku mohon ampunanMu)

Ebu Burde dedi ki: "Bana Aişe r.anha'nın rivayet ettiğine göre, Nebiyy-i Ekrem (Sallallahu Aleyhi ve sellem) hela’dan çıktığında; "Ğufraneke = (Ey Allahım) affına (sığınırım)" derdi. Diğer tahric: Tirmizî, tahare; İbn Mace, tahare; Darimi vudu; Ahmed b. Hanbel

Sunan Abi Dawud 30, Book 1, Purification (Kitab Al-Taharah), Hadith 30. 1 min read

What it means

When the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) came out of the place where he answered the call of nature, he would say: I ask You for (Your forgiveness), O Allah.

What it teaches

  • It is recommended to say 'Ghufrānak' upon leaving the lavatory.
  • The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) used to ask for the forgiveness of his Lord in all conditions.
  • It was said about the reason for asking for forgiveness after relieving oneself: It is due to the shortcoming in giving thanks to Allah for His many blessings, which include the facilitation to make it easy to remove what is harmful. I ask for Your forgiveness for being distracted from Your remembrance while answering the call of nature.
