Hadith #12

Arabic Text

English Translation

Hishām ibn Saʿīd narrated to us, he said: Khālid informed us, he said: ʿAmr ibn Yaḥyā ibn ʿUmārah al-Anṣārī informed us. My father said — and Khalaf ibn al-Walīd said: Khālid narrated to us, from ʿAmr ibn Yaḥyā, from his father, from ʿAbdullāh ibn Zayd ibn ʿĀṣim — who had companionship (with the Prophet ﷺ). He was asked: 'Perform wuḍūʾ for us as the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ used to.' He called for a vessel and poured from it over his hands three times, washing them. Then he put in his hand and drew it out, rinsed his mouth and cleaned his nose from one handful — doing that three times. Then he drew out water and washed his face. Then he drew out water and washed his arms up to the elbows, twice each. Then he drew out water and wiped his head, bringing his hand forward and back. Then he washed his feet up to the ankles. Then he said: 'This is how the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ used to perform wuḍūʾ.'
