Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ هُوَ الرَّقِّيُّ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَجَّاجُ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّهُ وُضِعَ لَهُ وَضُوءٌ فَوَلَغَ فِيهِ السِّنَّوْرُ فَأَخَذَ يَتَوَضَّأُ فَقَالُوا يَا أَبَا قَتَادَةَ قَدْ وَلَغَ فِيهِ السِّنَّوْرُ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ السِّنَّوْرُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْبَيْتِ وَإِنَّهُ مِنْ الطَّوَّافِينَ أَوْ الطَّوَّافَاتِ عَلَيْكُمْ.

Ma'mar ibn Sulayman - he is al-Raqqi - narrated to us, al-Hajjaj narrated to us, from Qatadah, from 'Abdullah ibn Abi Qatadah, from his father, that water was set out for him to perform ablution, and a cat lapped from it. He proceeded to perform ablution, and they said: 'O Abu Qatadah, a cat has lapped from it.' He said: 'I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) saying: "The cat is of the household, and it is among those that go around among you - male or female."'
