I entered upon Ibn Darah, the freed slave of ʿUthman, and he heard me rinsing my mouth. He said: O Muhammad! I said: Here I am. He said:Shall I not tell you about the wudoo’ of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? I saw ʿUthman when he was in al-Maqaʿid. He called for water for wudoo’, then he rinsed his mouth three times, rinsed his nose three times, washed his face three times, washed his arms three times, wiped his head three times and washed his feet, then he said: Whoever would like to see how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did wudoo’, this is how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did wudooʿ. (Using translation from Aḥmad 436)
عَنْ وُضُوءِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ قُلْتُ بَلَى قَالَ رَأَيْتُ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ وَهُوَ بِالْمَقَاعِدِ فَدَعَا بِإِنَاءٍ فَمَضْمَضَ ثَلَاثًا وَاسْتَنْشَقَ ثَلَاثًا وَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ ثَلَاثًا وَغَسَلَ ذِرَاعَيْهِ ثَلَاثًا ثَلَاثًا وَمَسَحَ بِرَأْسِهِ ثَلَاثًا وَغَسَلَ قَدْمَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى وُضُوءِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَلْيَنْظُرْ إِلَى وُضُوئِي هَذَا وَقَدْ ذَكَرَ غَيْرُهُ التَّثْلِيثَ فِي الْقَدْمَيْنِ أَيْضًا
