Yahya related to me from Malik from Abdullah ibn Abd ar-Rahmanibn Mamar al-Ansari from Abu Yunus, the mawla of A'isha, from A'ishathat she overheard a man standing at the door saying to the Messengerof Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, "Messenger ofAllah, I get up in the morning junub, in a state of major ritualimpurity, and want to fast," and the Messenger of Allah, may Allahbless him and grant him peace, said, "I too get up in the morningjunub and want to fast, so I do ghusl and fast." The man said to him,"You are not the same as us. Allah has forgiven you all your wrongactions that have gone before and those that have come after." TheMessenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, got angryand said, "By Allah, I hope that I am the most fearful of you withrespect to Allah and the most knowledgeable of you in how I havetaqwa."
