Sunan Abi Dawud 14 (Book 1, Hadith 14) #20305
Lowering Oneself When Relieving Oneself

SUMMARY: The Prophet (PBUH) would lower himself near the ground when relieving himself and not raise his garment.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: When the Prophet wanted to relieve himself, he would not raise his garment, until he lowered himself near the ground. Abu DAwud said: This tradition has been transmitted by 'Abd al-Salam b. Harb on the authority of al-A'mash from Anas b. Malik. This chain of narrators is weak (because A'mash's hearing tradition from Anas b. Malik is not established).
حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ كَانَ إِذَا أَرَادَ حَاجَةً لاَ يَرْفَعُ ثَوْبَهُ حَتَّى يَدْنُوَ مِنَ الأَرْضِ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ رَوَاهُ عَبْدُ السَّلاَمِ بْنُ حَرْبٍ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى الرَّمْلِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَوْنٍ أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ السَّلاَمِ بِهِ

Lower yourself near the ground when relieving yourself; Be mindful of your behavior at all times; Maintain modesty and dignity in private moments; Follow the example of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) .

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith teaches us that when we are relieving ourselves, we should lower ourselves near the ground and not raise our garments. This is a sign of humility and respect for oneself, as well as for others. It is important to remember that even in private moments, we should still maintain our modesty and dignity. We can also learn from this hadith that it is important to be mindful of how we conduct ourselves in all situations, even if no one else is around.

The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was known for his exemplary character and behavior, so it comes as no surprise that he would practice such humility even in private moments like this one. He was an example to us all on how to conduct ourselves with dignity at all times.
