In this context, determined some basic principles and rules on body, dress and environmental cleaning and stated that they should be followed. In this study, the 'five things are from nature' narration related to body cleaning will be analyzed in terms of isnād and text. The narration stating that body cleanliness is an essential, that is, an innate feature of human beings and laying down some rules on this issue, took place in most of the classical ḥadīth sources. The ḥadīth was transmitted in two different ways as marfūʿ and mawqūf with two different texts. The ḥadīth in question was transmitted by a single narrator until al-Zuhrī in the first three layers, and the number of narrators increased after al-Zuhrī. In the research, the ḥadīth, which has many transmission channels, was first isnād analyzed and then the text was criticized. With the analysis of isnād, the your ḥadīth whether it belongs to the Prophet (pbuh) and it is aimed to state the situation of the narrators in terms of reliability. The text criticism, it has been tried to determine whether there are contradictions between the ṭarīqs and whether the ḥadīth is literally or with in meaning. In addition, the approaches of fiqh scholars to this point of transmission are briefly mentioned.
