আবু হুরায়রা (রাঃ)-এর বর্ণনার আলোকে বুঝা যায়, রাসূলুল্লাহ (সাঃ) ইসলামের প্রথম দিকে আগুনে রান্না করা জিনিস খেলে ওযূ করতেন। তাই তিনি পনীর খেয়ে ওযূ করেছেন। পরে এ হুকুম পরিবর্তন হয়ে যায়। তাই রাসূলুল্লাহ (সাঃ) বকরীর গোশত খেয়েও পুনরায় ওযূ করেননি।

In the early stages of Islam, wudhu would become nullified after taking food and drink cooked on fire. Later this law was abrogated. It is possible that Sayyidina Rasoolullah sallallahu alaihe wasallam performed wudhu after eating cheese in the days when wudhu became nullified after eating things that were cooked on fire, or he may have performed wudhu due to some other reason. For example, he may have performed wudhu again whilst still being in the state of wudhu, or due to some reason the wudhu may have become invalid. From the explanation given by Sayyidina Abu Hurairah radiyallahu anhu we gather that in the early stages of Islam, Sayyidina Rasoolullah sallallahu alaihe wasallam performed wudhu after eating things cooked on fire. Later this law was abrogated, that is why he did not perform wudhu after eating the mutton.
