شَرْحُ رِيَاضِ الصَّالِحِينَ مِنْ كَلَامِ سَيِّدِ الْمُرْسَلِينَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.

Explanation of Riyadh as-Salihin from the words of the Master of the Messengers, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.

وَمِنْهَا: جَوَازُ رُكُوبِ الْبَغْلَةِ، وَالْبَغْلُ مُتَوَلِّدٌ مِنْ بَيْنِ الْحِمَارِ وَالْفَرَسِ، يَنْزُو الْحِمَارُ عَلَى الْأُنْثَى مِنَ الْخَيْلِ فَتَلِدُ الْبَغْلَ وَهُوَ نَجِسٌ وَحَرَامٌ، لَكِنَّهُ طَاهِرٌ فِي ظَاهِرِهِ كَالْهِرَّةِ طَاهِرَةٌ وَلَكِنَّ بَوْلَهَا وَعَذِرَتَهَا نَجِسَةٌ، وَكَذَلِكَ الْبَغْلُ فَعَرَقُهُ طَاهِرٌ، وَمَسُّهُ حَالَ الرُّطُوبَةِ لَا يُؤَثِّرُ؛ لِأَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ رَكِبَهُ وَهُوَ يَعْرَقُ، وَقَدْ يَكُونُ الْمَطَرُ، وَلَمْ يَرِدْ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَتَحَرَّزُ مِنْهُ، فَدَلَّ ذَلِكَ عَلَى أَنَّهُ طَاهِرٌ وَهُوَ الْقَوْلُ الرَّاجِحُ.

Among them is the permissibility of riding a mule, and the mule is born from between a donkey and a horse; the donkey mounts the female of the horses, and she gives birth to the mule, and it is impure and forbidden, but it is pure in its exterior, just as the cat is pure, but its urine and excrement are impure; likewise, the mule, its sweat is pure, and touching it while wet does not affect [purity], because the Prophet (peace be upon him) rode it while it was sweating, and there might have been rain, and it was not reported that the Prophet (peace be upon him) used to guard against it, so this indicates that it is pure, and this is the preferred opinion.

وَمِنْهَا: أَنَّهُ يَنْبَغِي لِلْإِنْسَانِ أَنْ يُنَادِيَ النَّاسَ بِمَا يُشَجِّعُهُمْ؛ لِأَنَّ الْعَبَّاسَ لَمْ يَقُلْ: يَا أَيُّهَا الْمُؤْمِنُونَ، يَا أَيُّهَا الصَّحَابَةُ، بَلْ قَالَ يَا أَصْحَابَ السَّمُرَةِ؛ لِأَنَّ هَذَا يُشَجِّعُهُمْ وَيُذَكِّرُهُمْ بِالْبَيْعَةِ الَّتِي بَايَعُوا عَلَيْهَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ.

Among them is that it is appropriate for a person to call out to people with what encourages them, because Al-Abbas did not say: 'O believers, O companions,' but rather he said: 'O companions of the Samurah tree,' because this encourages them and reminds them of the pledge of allegiance they gave to the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him).
