Ablution
O ye who believe! Approach not
prayers with a mind befogged, until ye can understand all that ye say,-
nor in a state of ceremonial impurity (Except when travelling on the
road), until after washing your whole body. If ye are ill, or on a journey, or one of you cometh from offices of nature, or ye have been in contact with women, and ye find no water, then take for yourselves clean sand or earth, and rub therewith your faces and hands. For Allah doth blot out sins and forgive again and again.
Narrated 'Aisha
The necklace of Asma' was lost, so the Prophet sent some men to look for it. The time for the prayer became due and they had not performed ablution and could not find water, so they offered the prayer without ablution. Then Allah revealed (the Verse of Tayammum).

Bodily Odor
Narrated AbuMusa al-Ash'ari: Abu Burdah said: My father said to me: My son, if
you had seen us while we were with the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon
him) and the rain had fallen on us, you would have thought that our
smell was the smell of the sheep.
Call of Nature
Narrated Abdullah: The Prophet
went out to answer the call of nature and asked me to bring three
stones. I found two stones and searched for the third but could not find
it. So I took a dried piece of dung and brought it to him. He took the
two stones and threw away the dung and said, "This is a filthy thing."
Muhammed believed that urine is impure and that being defiled by urine will result in damnation:
Ibn Abbas reported: The Messenger
of Allah (may peace be upon him) happened to pass by two graves and
said: They (their occupants) are being tormented, but they are not
tormented for a grievous sin. One of them carried tales and the other did not keep himself safe from being defiled by urine. He then
called for a fresh twig and split it into two parts, and planted them
on each grave and then said: Perhaps, their punishment way be mitigated
as long as these twigs remain fresh.
However, drinking camel urine for medicinal purposes is fine.
The climate of Medina did not suit some people, so the Prophet ordered them to follow his
shepherd, i.e. his camels, and drink their milk and urine (as a
medicine). So they followed the shepherd that is the camels and drank
their milk and urine till their bodies became healthy.
Clothes
Narrated 'Aisha
A boy was brought to the Prophet to do Tahnik for him, but the boy urinated on him, whereupon the Prophet had water poured on the place of urine.

Asma (daughter of Abu Bakr)
reported: A woman came to the Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him)
and said: What should one do if the blood of menses smears the garment
of one amongst us? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: She should scrape it,
then rub it with water, then pour water over it and then offer prayer in it.

Food
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: The Prophet said, 'When you eat, do not wipe your hands till you have licked it, or had it licked by somebody else."
Narrated Maimuna:
Allah's Apostle was asked regarding ghee (cooking butter) in which a mouse had fallen. He said, "Take out the mouse and throw away the ghee around it and use the rest."

Abu Huraira reported the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) to have said: When
a dog licks a utensil belonging to any one of you, (the thing contained
in it) should be thrown away and then (the utensil) should be washed
seven times.
Swallowing bits of food that may be left between the teeth is regarded as eating, so it invalidates
the fast...
Ibn Qudaamah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said in al-Mughni, 3/260:
If a person has food between his teeth, one of the following two scenarios must apply:
1 – It is a small amount that he
cannot spit out, so he swallows it. This does not invalidate his fast,
because it cannot be avoided. It is like saliva. Ibn al-Mundhir said:
Thescholars are unanimously agreed on that.
2 – It is a large amount and he
can spit it out. If he spits it out there is no sin on him, but if he
swallows it deliberately, his fast is invalidated according to the
majority of scholars, because he has swallowed food that he could have
spat out willingly when he is mindful of his fast. So this breaks the
fast just as if he deliberately started eating. End quote.
Narrated Anas ibn Malik: When the
Prophet (peace be upon him) was brought some old dates, he began to
examine them and remove the worms from them.
Number Narrated Abdullah ibn
AbuTalhah: The Prophet (peace be upon him) was brought some dates which
contained worms. He then mentioned the rest of the tradition to the same
effect as the previous (No 3823).
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah:
When the Trench was dug, I saw the Prophet in the state of severe
hunger. So I returned to my wife and said, "Have you got anything (to
eat), for I have seen Allah's Apostle in a state of severe hunger." She
brought out for me, a bag containing one Sa of barley, and we had a
domestic she animal (i.e. a kid) which I slaughtered then, and my wife
ground the barley and she finished at the time I finished my job (i.e.
slaughtering the kid). Then I cut the meat into pieces and put it in an
earthenware (cooking) pot, and returned to Allah's Apostle . My wife
said, "Do not disgrace me in front of Allah's Apostle and those who are
with him." So I went to him and said to him secretly, "O Allah's
Apostle! I have slaughtered a she-animal (i.e. kid) of ours, and we have
ground a Sa of barley which was with us. So please come, you and
another person along with you." The Prophet raised his voice and said,
"O people of Trench ! Jabir has prepared a meal so let us go." Allah's
Apostle said to me, "Don't put down your earthenware meat pot (from the
fireplace) or bake your dough till I come." So I came (to my house) and
Allah's Apostle too, came, proceeding before the people. When I came to
my wife, she said, "May Allah do so-and-so to you." I said, "I have told
the Prophet of what you said." Then
she brought out to him (i.e. the Prophet the dough, and he spat in it
and invoked for Allah's Blessings in it. Then he proceeded towards our
earthenware meat-pot and spat in it and invoked for Allah's Blessings in
it. Then he said (to my
wife). Call a lady-baker to bake along with you and keep on taking out
scoops from your earthenware meat-pot, and do not put it down from its
fireplace." They were one-thousand (who took their meals), and by Allah
they all ate, and when they left the food and went away, our earthenware
pot was still bubbling (full of meat) as if it had not decreased, and
our dough was still being baked as if nothing had been taken from it.
Lice
Narrated Zaynab: She was picking lice from the head of the Apostle of Allah (peace
be upon him) while the wife of Uthman ibn Affan and the immigrant women
were with him. They complained about their houses that they had been
narrowed down to them and they were evicted from them. The Apostle of
Allah (peace be upon him) ordered that the houses of the Immigrants
should be given to their wives. Thereafter Abdullah ibn Mas'ud died, and
his wife inherited his house in Medina.
Narrated Anas bin Malik: Allah's
Apostle used to visit Um Haram bint Milhan she was the wife of 'Ubada
bin As-Samit. One day the Prophet visited her and she provided him with
food and started looking for lice in his head. Then Allah's Apostle slept and afterwards woke up smiling.
Semen
Narrated 'Aisha: I used to wash
the semen off the clothes of the Prophet and even then I used to notice
one or more spots on them.
Abdullah b. Shihab al-Khaulani
reported: I stayed in the house of 'A'isha and had a wet dream (and
perceived its effect on my garment), so (in the morning) I dipped both
(the clothes) in water. This (act of mine) was watched by a maid-servant
of A'isha and she informed her. She (Hadrat A'isha) sent me a message:
What prompted you to act like this with your clothes? He (the narrator)
said: I told that I saw in a dream what a sleeper sees. She said: Did
you find (any mark of the fluid) on your clothes? I said: No. She said:
Had you found anything you should have washed it. In
case I found that (semen) on the garment of the Messenger of Allah (may
peace be upon him) dried up, I scraped it off with my nails.
Spitting
Narrated Anas bin Malik
The Prophet saw some sputum in the direction of the Qibla (on the wall of the mosque) and he disliked that and the sign of disgust was apparent from his face. So he got up and scraped it off with his hand and said, "Whenever anyone of you stands for the prayer, he is speaking in private to his Lord or his Lord is between him and his Qibla. So, none of you should spit in the direction of the Qibla but one can spit to the left or under his foot." The Prophet then took the corner of his sheet and spat in it and folded it and said, "Or you can do like this. "

private to his Lord, so he should neither spit in front of him nor to
his right side but he could spit either on his left or under his foot."

Narrated Anas
The Prophet once spat in his clothes.

Narrated Abu Qatada: The Prophet
said, "A good dream that comes true is from Allah, and a bad dream is
from Satan, so if anyone of you sees a bad dream, he should seek refuge
with Allah from Satan and should spit on the left, for the bad dream
will not harm him."
Water
Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: The
Prophet (peace be upon him), was asked about water (in desert country)
and what is frequented by animals and wild beasts. He replied:When there is enough water to fill two pitchers, it bears no impurity.
Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: One
of the wives of the Prophet (peace be upon him) took a bath from a large
bowl. The Prophet (peace be upon him) wanted to perform ablution or
take from the water left over. She said to him: O Prophet of Allah,
verily I was sexually defiled. The Prophet said: Water not defiled.
Narrated Al-Bara bin Azib: That
they were in the company of Allah's Apostle on the day of Al-Hudaibiya
and their number was 1400 or more. They camped at a well and drew its
water till it was dried. When they informed Allah's Apostle of that, he
came and sat over its edge and said, "Bring
me a bucket of its water." When it was brought, he spat and invoked
(Allah) and said, "Leave it for a while." Then they quenched their
thirst and watered their riding animals (from that well) till they departed.
Narrated Abu Juhaifa: I saw Allah's Apostle in a red leather tent and I
saw Bilal taking the remaining water with which the Prophet had
performed ablution. I saw the people taking the utilized water
impatiently and whoever got some of it rubbed it on his body and those
who could not get any took the moisture from the others' hands. Then
I saw Bilal carrying an 'Anza (a spear-headed stick) which he planted
in the ground. The Prophet came out tucking up his red cloak, and led
the people in prayer and offered two Rakat (facing the Ka'ba) taking
'Anza as a Sutra for his prayer. I saw the people and animals passing in
front of him beyond the 'Anza.
Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet
said "If a house fly falls in the drink of anyone of you, he should dip
it (in the drink), for one of its wings has a disease and the other has
the cure for the disease."
Water mixed with dead dogs and menstrual clothes is still considered clean.
Narrated AbuSa'id al-Khudri: The
people asked the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him): Can we perform
ablution out of the well of Buda'ah, which is a well into which
menstrual clothes, dead dogs and stinking things were thrown? He
replied: Water is pure and is not defiled by anything.
Sahih Muslim 1:66, See Also Sahih Muslim 1:67
However, eating or drinking water while standing is forbidden.
Anas reported that Allah's
Apostle (may peace be upon him) forbade that a person should drink while
standing. Qatada reported: We said to him: What about eating? Thereupon
he (Anas) said: That is even worse and more detestable (abominable).
Narrated 'Aisha
The Prophet died when we had satisfied our hunger with the two black things, i.e. dates and water.
