That claim about the Zutt and the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is not based on any authentic Islamic or historical source.
Let’s break this down carefully and factually:
1. The hadith you quoted (Musnad Ahmad 3788)
– This narration describes an event where the Prophet recited Qur’an to the jinn, with Ibn Mas‘ūd witnessing part of it.
– The text says the Prophet felt tired or heavy afterward, not harmed or violated in any way.
– The report makes no mention whatsoever of the Zutt, any physical assault, or anything remotely sexual.
2. The “Zutt” people
– Historically, the Zutt were groups originating from the Indian subcontinent, brought to southern Iraq during the early Abbasid era (8th–9th centuries CE).
– The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ died in 632 CE — more than a century before the Zutt appeared in Arab lands.
– So they couldn’t possibly have interacted with him.
3. The semen/clothing reports
– There are hadiths in Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim mentioning that ʿĀʾishah (r.a.) cleaned semen stains from the Prophet’s clothes.
– These narrations simply indicate ritual purity practices — they do not suggest abuse, nor do they mention anyone else being involved.
– Any suggestion that this semen came from other men or from an assault is an invented modern distortion with no basis in classical scholarship.
In short:
The Zutt never met the Prophet.
The hadith you cited has nothing to do with them.
The idea of the Prophet being “raped by the Zutt” is a fabricated claim and not supported by any reliable Islamic or historical text.
Would you like me to show you exactly what classical scholars (like Ibn Hajar or al-Albani) said about that narration from Musnad Ahmad, so you can see how it’s been understood within mainstream Islamic scholarship?
