Arabic Text

English Translation

Abū Saʿīd, the freed slave of the Banū Hāshim, narrated to us, Muḥammad ibn Muṭarrif Abū Ghassān narrated to us, Zayd ibn Aslam narrated to us, from ʿAṭāʾ ibn Yasār, from Abū ʿAbd Allāh al-Ṣunābiḥī, that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Whoever rinses his mouth and nose, his sins fall from his mouth and nostrils. Whoever washes his face, his sins fall from beneath his eyelashes. Whoever washes his hands, they fall from his fingernails — or from beneath his fingernails. Whoever wipes his head and ears, his sins fall from his head or the tips of his ears. Whoever washes his feet, his sins fall from his toenails — or beneath his toenails. Then his steps to the mosque are a supererogatory act.' Ḥusayn ibn Muḥammad narrated to us, Muḥammad ibn Muṭarrif narrated to us, from Zayd ibn Aslam, from ʿAṭāʾ ibn Yasār, from Abū ʿAbd Allāh al-Ṣunābiḥī, from the Prophet ﷺ who said, 'Whoever rinses his mouth and blows his nose, his sins fall from his nose and mouth' — and he mentioned the like of it.
