Chapter. Abragation of the rule: ´´The bath becomes obligatory only after seminal discharge´´ and pbligatory of the bath when circumcised parts touch each together

 Abu Musa reported: There was a difference of opinion between a group of Muhajir and a group of Ansar on the point of a dispute (i.e., bath is obligatory or not).

The Ansar said:

´´Having a bath is due onlu after seminal discharge.´´ The Muhajir said: ´´When a man has secual intercourse, a batj becomes obligatory (on matter whether or not there is seminal discharge)..´´ Abu Musa said:

´´Well, I will satisfy you on this (issue).´´ He said: I went to ´Aishah and sought her permission and it was granted, and I said to her: ´´O Mother (or: Mother of the believers)! I went to ask you about a matter but I fell shy of you.´´ She said:

´´Don´t fell shy to ask me about a thing which you would ask your mother who gave you brith, for I am your mother too.´´ Upon this I said: ´´What makes a bath obligatory?´´ She replied: ´´You have come to the well-informed! The Messenger of Allah salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´When a man sits between her four limbs and the circumcised parts touch each other, a bath becomes obligatory.´´
