Sunan Abi Dawud: Book 30, Hadith 1

Narrated AbuHurayrah: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: If anyone resorts to a diviner and believes in what he says (according) to the version of Musa), or has intercourse with his wife (according to the agreed version) when she is menstruating, or has intercourse with his wife through her anus, he has nothing to do with what has been sent down to Muhammad (ﷺ) – according to the version of Musaddad.

حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ حَكِيمٍ الأَثْرَمِ، عَنْ أَبِي تَمِيمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏”‏ مَنْ أَتَى كَاهِنًا ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ مُوسَى فِي حَدِيثِهِ ‏”‏ فَصَدَّقَهُ بِمَا يَقُولُ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ اتَّفَقَا ‏”‏ أَوْ أَتَى امْرَأَةً ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ ‏”‏ امْرَأَتَهُ حَائِضًا أَوْ أَتَى امْرَأَةً ‏”‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ ‏”‏ امْرَأَتَهُ فِي دُبُرِهَا فَقَدْ بَرِئَ مِمَّا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَلَى مُحَمَّدٍ ‏”‏ ‏.‏

Sunan Abi Dawud: Book 30, Hadith 1

 
The above hadith is from the Sunan Abi Dawud collection of hadiths. Compiled by Imam Abu Dawud al-Sijistani, Sunan Abi Dawud is revered for its extensive and practical coverage of Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh). Its structure is deliberately thematic, with the over 4,800 hadiths sorted into dedicated books addressing specific areas of daily life and worship. This includes detailed chapters on ritual purity (tahara), prayer (salah), alms-giving (zakat), pilgrimage (hajj), marriage (nikah), and commercial law. This logical organization has made it an indispensable primary source for scholars, jurists, and students seeking the Prophetic precedents that form the basis of Islamic law and ethical conduct.
