These mosques are not appropriate for anything of this kind of urine or filth. They are only for the remembrance of Allah Almighty, prayer, and recitation of the Qur’an
عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضيَ اللهُ عنه قَالَ: بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذْ جَاءَ أَعْرَابِيٌّ، فَقَامَ يَبُولُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، فَقَالَ أَصْحَابُ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: مَهْ مَهْ، قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَا تُزْرِمُوهُ، دَعُوهُ» فَتَرَكُوهُ حَتَّى بَالَ، ثُمَّ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ دَعَاهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ: «إِنَّ هَذِهِ الْمَسَاجِدَ لَا تَصْلُحُ لِشَيْءٍ مِنْ هَذَا الْبَوْلِ، وَلَا الْقَذَرِ إِنَّمَا هِيَ لِذِكْرِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ، وَالصَّلَاةِ وَقِرَاءَةِ الْقُرْآنِ» أَوْ كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: فَأَمَرَ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْقَوْمِ فَجَاءَ بِدَلْوٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ فَشَنَّهُ عَلَيْهِ.
Explanation
The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) was in his mosque with his Companions when a Bedouin from the desert came and began to urinate in a corner of the mosque. The Companions rebuked him and said: Stop! Hold yourself back from that! The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: Leave him alone, and do not interrupt his urination. So they left him until he finished.
Then he (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) called him and said to him: Indeed, mosques are not suitable for anything of this urine or any kind of filth. They are only for the remembrance of Allah Almighty, prayer, the recitation of the Qur’an, and the like. Then the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) instructed one of the Companions, who brought a bucket full of water and gently poured it over his urine.
