Musnad Ahmad 949 (Book 5, Hadith 376) #34602
Wiping Over Khuffain During Travel

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's instruction to his companions to wipe over their khuffain when travelling.

It was narrated from al-Miqdam bin Shuraih, that his father said: I asked 'A’ishah: Tell me about a man among the Companions of the Prophet whom I can ask about wiping over the khuffain. She said: Go to 'Ali and ask him, for he stayed close to the Prophet . So I went to 'Ali (رضي الله عنه) and asked him, and he said: The Messenger of Allah told us to wipe over our khifaf when we travelled.
حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنِ الْمِقْدَامِ بْنِ شُرَيْحٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا فَقُلْتُ أَخْبِرِينِي بِرَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ الْمَسْحِ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ فَقَالَتْ ائْتِ عَلِيًّا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَسَلْهُ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ يَلْزَمُ النَّبِيَّ قَالَ فَأَتَيْتُ عَلِيًّا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَسَأَلْتُهُ فَقَالَ أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ بِالْمَسْحِ عَلَى خِفَافِنَا إِذَا سَافَرْنَا‏.‏
