It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "There are five acts of fitrah, or five things are from fitrah: 1. Circumcision. 2. Shaving the pubic hair. 3. Cutting the nails. 4. Plucking the armpit hair. 5. Trimming the moustache."

Narrated from Umm al-Mu’minin Aisha Siddiqa Tayyiba Tahira (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Ten things are from the natural disposition (fitrah): 1: Trimming the mustache. 2: Letting the beard grow. 3: Using the miswak. 4: Putting water in the nose. 5: Cutting the nails. 6: Washing the finger joints (washing inside the ears, nose, armpits, and thighs). 7: Plucking the armpit hair. 8: Shaving the pubic hair. 9: Cleaning oneself with water after relieving oneself (or sprinkling a little water on the private parts after ablution). Mus’ab said: I forgot the tenth thing; perhaps it is rinsing the mouth. Waki’ (may Allah have mercy on him) said:“Intiqas al-ma’”(which is mentioned in the hadith) means cleaning oneself after relieving oneself.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) that I saw myself using a miswak in a dream. Then two men asked me for the miswak; one of them was older. I gave the miswak to the younger one, so I was instructed to give it to the older one, so I gave it to the older one.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: (In all words and actions) oppose the polytheists; trim the moustaches and let the beards grow (that is, leave the beards and do not trim them).

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that a time limit was set for us regarding trimming the moustache, cutting the nails, plucking the armpit hair, and shaving the pubic hair, that they should not be left for more than forty days.

Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) said: We were sitting in the mosque with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) when a Bedouin came and started urinating while standing. The companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) called out to him to stop, but the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "Do not interrupt his urination, leave him." So the people left him until he finished urinating. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) called him and said, "Mosques are not for urination or filth. They are built for the remembrance of Allah, for prayer, and for reciting the Qur'an," or he said something similar. Then he ordered a man, who brought a bucket of water and poured it over the spot.

It is narrated from Umm Qais (may Allah be pleased with her) that she came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) with her child who did not eat food. Ubaidullah (the narrator of the hadith) said that Umm Qais (may Allah be pleased with her) informed that the child urinated in the lap of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) called for water and sprinkled it on the garment and did not wash it.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Shihab Khawlani narrates that I stayed as a guest with Umm al-Mu’minin Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her). I had a wet dream in my clothes, so I dipped them in water. The slave girl of Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) saw me and went to inform her. Umm al-Mu’minin sent me a message asking why I had done that. I said that in my sleep I saw what a sleeper sees (i.e., a wet dream). Umm al-Mu’minin asked,“Did you see any trace (of semen) on your clothes?”I said,“No.”She said,“If you had seen anything on your clothes, even then washing that spot would have been sufficient. I used to scrape off the dried semen from the clothes of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) with my fingernails.”

Lady Asma bint Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with both of them) says that a woman came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked, "If menstrual blood gets on any of our clothes, what should she do?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "First, she should scrape it off, then pour water over it, rub it, and wash it. After that, she may pray in the same garment."
