I asked ' Uthmân bin ' Affân about a person who engaged in intercourse but did not discharge. ' Uthmân replied, "He should perform ablution like the one for an ordinary Salât (prayer) but he must wash his penis." ' Uthmân added, "I heard it from Allâh's Messenger (ﷺ) " " I asked ', Az-Zubair, Talḥa and Ubai bin Ka'b about it and they, too, gave the same reply. (This order was cancelled later on and taking a bath became necessary for such cases, see No. 202). [1:179-O.B.]
