    Uhh, this sounds literally like clothes washing instructions. Mixed with just general ancient misogyny. Ancient religious texts are filled with this sort of passages that are just general instructions about how to properly carry out mundane daily life tasks.

    This is in the context of the prophet, having a baby sat on his lap, got peed on. This is the little gem of ancient wisdom he delivered. Girl pee, get this off me and wash it at once. Boy pee, just let it be for a while, sprinkle it a bit with water and that’s it.

    This one comes from the same book that tells that a servant had to wash dried semen from the prophet clothes. Religious texts can be very wild.

    if anyone knows arabic can you translate it better?

    حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَرْبِ بْنِ أَبِي الأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، - رضى الله عنه - قَالَ يُغْسَلُ مِنْ بَوْلِ الْجَارِيَةِ وَيُنْضَحُ مِنْ بَوْلِ الْغُلاَمِ مَا لَمْ يَطْعَمْ ‏.‏

    google translate shows us some thing different

    Musaddad narrated to us, Yahya narrated to us, on the authority of Ibn Abi Arouba, on the authority of Qatada, on the authority of Abu Harb bin Abi Al-Aswad, on the authority of his father, on the authority of Ali, - may God be pleased with him - he said: Ask some of the slave girl’s urine and sprinkle with the boy’s urine unless he tastes it.

    As true today as when it was written. (Rolls eyes). So much religious nutjobbery - it’s another example of why religion is so horrible and misognynistic - female urine is “bad” but male urine, well let’s splash it all over ourselves, it’s fucking pure gold.

    Does anyone recall that verse in the bible about baldpate? The man was being mocked by children for being bald, so he called on god to avenge him, and god sent a bear that attacked the children and ripped their flesh and ate them.

    Great job, religion. It’s no wonder the world’s kids are so well adjusted and non-violent and accepting of others.
