Urdu Translation

عبداللہ بن مسعود رضی اللہ عنہ کہتے ہیں کہ   نبی اکرم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم قضائے حاجت  ( پاخانے )  کی جگہ میں آئے، اور مجھے تین پتھر لانے کا حکم فرمایا، مجھے دو پتھر ملے، تیسرے کی میں نے تلاش کی مگر وہ نہیں ملا، تو میں نے گوبر لے لیا اور ان تینوں کو لے کر نبی اکرم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم کی خدمت میں حاضر ہوا، تو آپ نے دونوں پتھر لے لیے، اور گوبر پھینک دیا ۱؎ اور فرمایا:  یہ «رکس»  ( ناپاک )  ہے ۔ ابوعبدالرحمٰن النسائی کہتے ہیں: «رکس» سے مراد جنوں کا کھانا ہے ۲؎۔

English Translation

Abdur-Rahman bin Al-Aswad (narrated) from his father that he heard 'Abdullah say: The Prophet (ﷺ) wanted to defecate, and he told me to bring him three stones. I found two stones and looked for a third, but I could not find any, so I picked up a piece of dung and brought them to the Prophet (ﷺ). He took the two stones and three away the dung and said: This is Riks. Abu 'Abdur-Rahman (An-Nasai') said: Riks is the food of the jinn.
