Musnad Aḥmad 29
حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، سَمِعْتُ ابْنَ الْمُنْكَدِرِ غَيْرَ مَرَّةٍ يَقُولُ عَنْ جَابِرٍ — وَكَأَنِّي سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ أَخْبَرَنِي مَنْ سَمِعَ جَابِرًا، فَظَنَنْتُهُ سَمِعَهُ مِنِ ابْنِ عَقِيلٍ — ابْنُ الْمُنْكَدِرِ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ: أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَكَلَ لَحْمًا، ثُمَّ صَلَّى وَلَمْ يَتَوَضَّأْ.

a sound ḥadīth whose narrators are the trustworthy men of al-Bukhārī and Muslim (al-Arnaʾūṭ, no. 14299). Note on
chain: Sufyān ibn ʿUyayna expresses some uncertainty as to whether Ibn al-Munkadir heard this directly from Jābir or through ʿAbdullāh ibn Muḥammad ibn ʿAqīl. He heard the hadith more than once, sometimes in a form suggesting direct transmission (ʿan Jābir) and sometimes suggesting intermediary transmission (akhbaranī man samiʿa Jābiran). The isnād in either case terminates in Jābir, and the content is confirmed through multiple other chains. Rijāl: Sufyān ibn ʿUyayna: thiqah ḥāfiẓ faqīh imām. Muḥammad ibn al-Munkadir: thiqah fāḍil. ʿAbdullāh ibn Muḥammad ibn ʿAqīl ibn Abī Ṭālib (d. ca. 145 AH): ṣadūq fīhi layna (acceptable with slight weakness), used as corroborating evidence. Jābir ibn ʿAbdillāh: Companion. Takhrīj: Muslim, no. 354; Abū Dāwūd, no. 192; al-Tirmidhī, no. 79; al-Nasāʾī, no. 184; Ibn Mājah, no. 488. This ḥadīth abrogates the earlier command to perform wuḍūʾ after eating anything touched by fire (i.e., cooked food), which was the practice in the very early days of Islam. The later, abrogating practice, confirmed by the Prophet (ﷺ) eating and then praying without renewing wuḍūʾ, is that cooked food does not break wuḍūʾ. (Cf. Muslim, no. 351, narrated by ʿUrwa from ʿĀʾisha)
