Book 79: Asking Permission

Chapter 51 Circumcision at an old age, and pulling out armpit hair
باب الْخِتَانِ بَعْدَ الْكِبَرِ وَنَتْفِ الإِبْطِ
Sahih al-Bukhari 6299

Narrated Said bin Jubair: Ibn ‘Abbas was asked, “How old were you when
the Prophet (ﷺ) died?” He replied. “At that time I had been circumcised.”
At that time, people did not circumcise the boys till they attained
the age of puberty. Sa’id bin Jubair said, “Ibn ‘Abbas said, ‘When the
Prophet died, I had already been circumcised. ”

حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحِيمِ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، قَالَ سُئِلَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ مِثْلُ مَنْ أَنْتَ حِينَ قُبِضَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ أَنَا يَوْمَئِذٍ مَخْتُونٌ‏.‏ قَالَ وَكَانُوا لاَ يَخْتِنُونَ الرَّجُلَ حَتَّى يُدْرِكَ‏.‏
