Sunan Ibn Majah 744 (Book 4, Hadith 10) #30096
Praying in Gardens with Excrement

SUMMARY: It is permissible to pray in a garden that has been watered several times, even if excrement has been thrown in it.

It was narrated that Ibn 'Umar was asked about gardens in which excrement was thrown.: He said: "If it has been watered several times, then perform prayer there," and he attributed that to the Prophet.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ أَعْيَنَ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، وَسُئِلَ، عَنِ الْحِيطَانِ، تُلْقَى فِيهَا الْعَذِرَاتُ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ إِذَا سُقِيَتْ مِرَارًا فَصَلُّوا فِيهَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ يَرْفَعُهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ـ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith teaches us that it is permissible to perform prayer in a garden, even if excrement has been thrown into it, as long as the garden has been watered several times. This indicates that the Prophet Muhammad was very lenient and understanding when it came to matters of worship and religion. He did not want people to be discouraged from performing their religious duties due to difficult circumstances or lack of resources. Instead, he encouraged them to make use of whatever resources they had available and still fulfill their religious obligations.

This hadith also teaches us about cleanliness and hygiene; although we are allowed to pray in a garden with excrement present, we should still strive for cleanliness by watering the area multiple times before praying there. This shows us how important cleanliness is for our spiritual well-being as well as our physical health.
