[Machine] "I performed ablution for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he rinsed his beard with his fingers. He said, 'My Lord has commanded me to do so.' We were informed about the method of rinsing the beard from 'Ammar ibn Yasir, Aisha, and Umm Salamah, from the Prophet ﷺ . We were also informed about the permissibility of leaving it (without rinsing) from Ibn Umar and Hasan ibn Ali. And we were informed about it from An-Nakha'i and a group of the followers of the Prophet ﷺ ."
