حَدَّثَنَا عَبِيدَةُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ (١) التَّيْمِيُّ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَنِي رُكَيْنٌ، عَنْ حُصَيْنِ بْنِ قَبِيصَةَ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي طَالِبٍ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ رَجُلًا مَذَّاءً فَجَعَلْتُ أَغْتَسِلُ فِي الشِّتَاءِ حَتَّى تَشَقَّقَ ظَهْرِي، قَالَ: فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَوْ ذُكِرَ لَهُ، قَالَ: فَقَالَ: " لَا تَفْعَلْ، إِذَا رَأَيْتَ الْمَذْيَ فَاغْسِلْ ذَكَرَكَ، وَتَوَضَّأْ وُضُوءَكَ لِلصَّلاةِ، فَإِذَا فَضَخْتَ الْمَاءَ فَاغْتَسِلْ " (٢)،

It was narrated that `Ali bin Abi Talib (رضي الله عنه) said:
I was a man who emitted a great deal of madhi and I started to do ghusl in the winter, until the skin of my back became cracked. I mentioned that to the Prophet (ﷺ), or it was mentioned to him, and he said: “Do not do that. If you see madhi, then wash your private part and do wudoo’ as for prayer, but if water gushes out, then do ghusl.`
