أَخْبَرَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَمْرٍو الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ أَنَّ شَقِيقَ بْنَ سَلَمَةَ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّ حُمْرَانَ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ عُثْمَانَ تَوَضَّأَ ثُمَّ قَالَ
رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ تَوَضَّأَ مِثْلَ وُضُوئِي هَذَا ثُمَّ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ مِثْلَ وُضُوئِي هَذَا ثُمَّ قَامَ فَصَلَّى رَكْعَتَيْنِ غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ»

I saw ‘ Uthman’ b. ‘Affan while he performed ablution. He poured water over his hands three times and then washed them. He then rinsed his mouth and then cleansed his nose with water (three times). He then washed his right arm up to the elbow three times, then washed his left arm in a similar manner; then wiped his head; then washed his right foot three times, then washed his left foot in a similar manner, and then said: I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ performing ablution like this ablution of mine. Then he (the Prophet) said: He who performs ablution like this ablution of mine and then offered two rakhahs of prayer without allowing his thoughts to be distracted, Allah will pardon all his past sins. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 106)
