[Machine] I entered upon the Prophet ﷺ while he was performing ablution and water was flowing from his face and beard onto his chest. I saw him rinsing between gargling and sniffing water into his nose. Abu Dawud mentioned in another hadith from Al-Laith ibn Abi Sulaim from Talhah ibn Musarif from his father from his grandfather about ablution. Musaddad reported this to Yahya, meaning Al-Qattan, and he disapproved of it. Abu Dawud said, "I heard Ahmad say that Ibn 'Uyaynah disapproved of it and said, 'What is this? Talhah ibn Musarif from his father and his grandfather?' And Abu 'Abdullah Al-Hafith informed us, and Abu Al-Hasan Ahmad ibn Muhammad Al-Tarayfi informed us, saying, 'I heard 'Uthman ibn Sa'id Al-Darimi saying, 'I heard 'Ali ibn 'Abdullah Al-Madinī saying, I said to Sufyan, "Laith reported from Talhah ibn Musarif from his father from his grandfather that he saw the Prophet ﷺ performing ablution, and Sufyan ibn 'Uyaynah disapproved of it." 'Ali said, "I asked 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Mahdi about the genealogy of Talhah's grandfather, and he said, "Umru ibn Ka'b or Ka'b ibn 'Amr, and he had companions who testified to his character." And Abu 'Abdullah Al-Hafith informed us, and Abu Al-Abbas Muhammad ibn Ya'qub reported to us, and 'Abbas ibn Muhammad Al-Duri said, "I said to Yahya ibn Ma'in, 'Did the Prophet ﷺ see his grandfather?' And Yahya said, 'The narrators say that he did, and the family of Talhah says that he did not have companionship.'"
