Narrated Ali ibn AbuTalib: Abdullah ibn Salamah said: I, accompanied by other two persons, one from us and the other from Banu Asad, called upon Ali. He sent them to a certain territory (on some mission) saying: You are sturdy and vigorous people; hence display your power for religion. He then stood and entered the toilet. He then came out and called for water and took a handful of it. Then he wiped (his hands) with it and began to recite the Qur'an. They were surprised at this (action). Thereupon he said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came out from the privy and taught us the Qur'an and took meat with us. Nothing prevented him; or the narrator said: Nothing prevented him from (reciting) the Qur'an except sexual defilement

حدثنا حفص بن عمر، حدثنا شعبة، عن عمرو بن مرة، عن عبد الله بن سلمة، قال دخلت على علي - رضى الله عنه - انا ورجلان رجل منا ورجل من بني اسد - احسب فبعثهما علي - رضى الله عنه - وجها وقال انكما علجان فعالجا عن دينكما . ثم قام فدخل المخرج ثم خرج فدعا بماء فاخذ منه حفنة فتمسح بها ثم جعل يقرا القران فانكروا ذلك فقال ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم كان يخرج من الخلاء فيقرينا القران وياكل معنا اللحم ولم يكن يحجبه - او قال يحجزه - عن القران شىء ليس الجنابة
