5. Abu Ah al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Jabbar from Safwan from Dharih who has said the following
“I asked him (the source is not mentioned) about taking a shower in al-Haram (the sacred area) before or after entering. He replied, ‘Either way is not harmful. You may take a shower when you are in Makkah or take a shower at home when you are about to enter Makkah.’”
5ـ أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأَشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْجَبَّارِ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنْ ذَرِيحٍ قَالَ
سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الْغُسْلِ فِي الْحَرَمِ قَبْلَ دُخُولِهِ أَوْ بَعْدَ دُخُولِهِ قَالَ لا يَضُرُّكَ أَيَّ ذَلِكَ فَعَلْتَ وَإِنِ اغْتَسَلْتَ بِمَكَّةَ فَلا بَأْسَ وَإِنِ اغْتَسَلْتَ فِي بَيْتِكَ حِينَ تَنْزِلُ بِمَكَّةَ فَلا بَأْسَ.
