حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ الْمُفَضَّلِ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ عَنِ الرُّبَيِّعِ بِنْتِ مُعَوِّذِ ابْنِ عَفْرَاءَ قَالَتْ
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَأْتِينَا فَحَدَّثَتْنَا أَنَّهُ قَالَ اسْكُبِي لِي وَضُوءًا فَذَكَرَتْ وُضُوءَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَتْ فِيهِ فَغَسَلَ كَفَّيْهِ ثَلاَثًا وَوَضَّأَ وَجْهَهُ ثَلاَثًا وَمَضْمَضَ وَاسْتَنْشَقَ مَرَّةً وَوَضَّأَ يَدَيْهِ ثَلاَثًا ثَلاَثًا وَمَسَحَ بِرَأْسِهِ مَرَّتَيْنِ يَبْدَأُ بِمُؤَخَّرِ رَأْسِهِ ثُمَّ بِمُقَدَّمِهِ وَبِأُذُنَيْهِ كِلْتَيْهِمَا ظُهُورِهِمَا وَبُطُونِهِمَا وَوَضَّأَ رِجْلَيْهِ ثَلاَثًا ثَلاَثًا

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to come to us. He once said: Pour ablution water on me. She then described how the Prophet ﷺ performed ablution saying: He washed his hands up to wrist three times and washed his face three times, and rinsed his mouth and snuffed up water once. Then he washed his forearms three times and wiped his head twice beginning from the back of his head, then wiped its front. He wiped his ears outside and inside. Then he washed his feet three times. Abu Dawud said: The tradition narrated by Musaddad carries the same meaning.

What scholars said about it
In their own words, as Hadith Unlocked records them. They are shown, not summarised into a grade.
- ʿAbd al-ʿAẓīm al-Mudhirī
هذا حديث حسن ثم قال في آخره وعبد الله بن عقيل ضعيف فكيف يكون الحديث حسنا ومداره على ضعيف كما يزعم
machine translationThis is a good (ḥasan) hadith. Then at the end he said: "ʿAbdullāh b. ʿAqīl is weak (ḍaʿīf)." So how can the hadith be good when it revolves around a weak narrator, as he claims?

نقل الترمذي عن البخاري كان أحمد بن حنبل وإسحاق بن راهويه والحميدي يحتجون بحديثه أي ابن عقيل وهو مقارب الحديث
machine translationAl-Tirmidhī transmitted from al-Bukhārī: Aḥmad b. Ḥanbal, Isḥāq b. Rāhawayh and al-Ḥumaydī used to take his hadith as evidence, that is, Ibn ʿAqīl's, and he is close in hadith (muqārib al-ḥadīth).

في سنده ابن عقيل وفيه مقال مشهور كما عرفت وفي متنه اضطراب
