I saw Ali ؓ doing wudoo’ and wiping over his shoes. Then he said: “If I had not seen the Messenger of Allah ﷺ doing what you have seen me do, I would have thought that the bottoms of the feet were more deserving of being wiped than their tops”.
رَأَيْتُ عَلِيًّا تَوَضَّأَ وَمَسَحَ عَلَى النَّعْلَيْنِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَوْلا أَنِّي رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَعَلَ كَمَا رَأَيْتُمُونِي فَعَلْتُ لَرَأَيْتُ أَنَّ بَاطِنَ الْقَدَمَيْنِ هُوَ أَحَقُّ بِالْمَسْحِ مِنْ ظَاهِرِهِمَا
[Machine] I saw Ali performing ablution and wiping over his shoes. Then he stretched out and said, "If it were not for the fact that I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ doing as you have seen me do, I would have thought that wiping the inside of the feet is more deserving of wiping than the outer side." Abu Muhammad said, "This Hadith is abrogated by the saying of Allah, 'And wipe over your heads and your feet to the ankles.'"
رَأَيْتُ عَلِيًّا تَوَضَّأَ وَمَسَحَ عَلَى النَّعْلَيْنِ فَوَسَّعَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «لَوْلَا أَنِّي رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَعَلَ كَمَا رَأَيْتُمُونِي فَعَلْتُ لَرَأَيْتُ أَنَّ بَاطِنَ الْقَدَمَيْنِ أَحَقُّ بِالْمَسْحِ مِنْ ظَاهِرِهِمَا» قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ «هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ مَنْسُوخٌ بِقَوْلِهِ تَعَالَى {وَامْسَحُوا بِرُءُوسِكُمْ وَأَرْجُلَكُمْ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ}»
