📖 1 min readعن عبد الله بن زيد رضي الله عنه يَذْكُر أنه: «رأى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم توضأ فَمَضْمَض، ثم اسْتَنْثَرَ، ثم غسل وجهه ثلاثا، ويَدَه اليُمنى ثلاثا والأخرى ثلاثا، ومسح برأسه بماء غير فَضْلِ يَدِهِ، وغسل رجْلَيْه حتى أنْقَاهُما».
‘Abdullāh ibn Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) informs us of the manner in which the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) performed ablution. He tells us that when he performed ablution, he took water into his mouth, swirled it around, and spat it out; that he then took water into his nose and blew out the mucus and whatever else; and that he then washed his face thrice, then his right forearm up to the elbow thrice, and then the left forearm up to the elbow thrice. Then he wiped his head with new water and then washed his feet up to the ankles until all the dirt was removed from them.
