Sunan Abi Dawud 386 (Book 1, Hadith 386) #20677
Purifying Shoes with the Earth

SUMMARY: Shoes can be purified by treading on the ground.

Abu Hurairah reported the tradition to the same effect from the Prophet : When any of you treads with his shoes upon something unclean, they will be purified with the earth.
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، - يَعْنِي الصَّنْعَانِيَّ - عَنِ الأَوْزَاعِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلاَنَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ بِمَعْنَاهُ قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِذَا وَطِئَ الأَذَى بِخُفَّيْهِ فَطَهُورُهُمَا التُّرَابُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about purifying shoes with the earth. It was narrated by Abu Hurairah that Prophet Muhammad said that when someone steps on something unclean with their shoes, they can be purified by treading on the ground. This means that if someone steps in mud or dirt and it gets stuck to their shoes, they can clean it off by walking around and letting the dirt fall off of their shoes onto the ground. This teaches us to take care of our belongings and keep them clean so we don't spread dirt or germs around us. It also teaches us to be mindful of where we step so we don't get our feet dirty in the first place!
