Once Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to us and we brought out water for him in a brass pot. He performed ablution thus: He washed his face thrice, and his forearms to the elbows twice, then passed his wet hands lightly over the head from front to rear and brought them to front again and washed his feet (up to the ankles).  

أَتَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَخْرَجْنَا لَهُ مَاءً فِي تَوْرٍ مِنْ صُفْرٍ فَتَوَضَّأَ فَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ ثَلاَثًا وَيَدَيْهِ مَرَّتَيْنِ مَرَّتَيْنِ وَمَسَحَ بِرَأْسِهِ فَأَقْبَلَ بِهِ وَأَدْبَرَ وَغَسَلَ رِجْلَيْهِ  

[Machine] Abdullah bin Zaid, a companion of the Prophet, may ﷺ , said, "The Prophet, may ﷺ , came to us and we brought him water in a container made of clay. He performed ablution with it, washing his face three times and his hands up to his elbows two times each. He then wiped his head with the water and proceeded to wash his feet."  

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ صَاحِبِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ جَاءَنَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَأَخْرَجْنَا لَهُ مَاءً فِي تَوْرٍ مِنْ صُفْرٍ فَتَوَضَّأَ بِهِ فَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ ثَلَاثًا وَذِرَاعَيْهِ مَرَّتَيْنِ مَرَّتَيْنِ وَمَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ فَأَقْبَلَ بِهِمَا وَأَدْبَرَ وَغَسَلَ رِجْلَيْهِ
