حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا مُخْتَارٌ عَنْ أَبِي مَطَرٍ قَالَ
بَيْنَا نَحْنُ جُلُوسٌ مَعَ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلِيٍّ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ عَلَى بَابِ الرَّحَبَةِ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ، فَقَالَ: أَرِنِي وُضُوءَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ - وَهُوَ عِنْدَ الزَّوَالِ -، فَدَعَا قَنْبَرًا، فَقَالَ: ائْتِنِي بِكُوزٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ، فَغَسَلَ كَفَّيْهِ وَوَجْهَهُ ثَلَاثًا، وَتَمَضْمَضَ ثَلَاثًا، فَأَدْخَلَ بَعْضَ أَصَابِعِهِ فِي فِيهِ، وَاسْتَنْشَقَ ثَلَاثًا، وَغَسَلَ ذِرَاعَيْهِ ثَلَاثًا، وَمَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ وَاحِدَةً، فَقَالَ: دَاخِلُهُمَا مِنَ الْوَجْهِ، وَخَارِجُهُمَا مِنَ الرَّأْسِ، وَرِجْلَيْهِ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ ثَلَاثًا، وَلِحْيَتُهُ تَهْطِلُ عَلَى صَدْرِهِ، ثُمَّ حَسَا حَسْوَةً بَعْدَ الْوُضُوءِ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: أَيْنَ السَّائِلُ عَنْ وُضُوءِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ؟ كَذَا كَانَ وُضُوءُ نَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ

Whilst we were sitting with Ameer al-Muʿmineen ʿAli ؓ in the mosque, at Babur-Rahbah, a man came and said: Show me the wudoo’ of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. This was at the time of the meridian. [‘Ali] called Qanbar and said: Bring me an earthenware jug of water, he washed his hands and face three times, and rinsed his mouth three times, putting one of his fingers in his mouth. He rinsed his nose three times, washed his forearms three times, and wiped his head once. -[The narrator] said: moving his hands from the sides of his face to the back of his head. And [he washed] his feet up to the ankles three times, and his beard was dripping onto his chest. Then he took a sip of water after doing wudoo’ and said: Where is the one who was asking about the wudoo’ of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? This is how the wudoo’ of the Prophet of Allah was.
