ذِكْرُ وَصْفِ الِاسْتِنْشَاقِ لِلْمُتَوَضِّيءِ إِذَا أَرَادَ الْوُضُوءَ

ʿAli ؓ sat after praying Fajr in ar-Rahbah, then he said to his slave: Bring me water for wudoo’. The slave brought him a vessel in which there was water and another, large, vessel. ʿAbd Khair said: We were sitting and looking at him. He took the vessel in his right hand and tilted it over his left hand, then he washed both hands. Then he took the vessel in his right hand and poured water over his left hand, then he washed both hands. He did that three times.ʻAbd Khair said: Throughout that, he did not put his hand in the vessel until he had washed it three times. Then he put his right hand in the vessel and washed his mouth, and rinsed his nose with his left hand. He did that three times. Then he put his right hand in the vessel and washed his face three times. Then he washed his right arm up to the elbow three times, then he washed his left arm up to the elbow three times. Then he put his right hand in the vessel until it was immersed, then he lifted it with whatever water was on it, and he wiped his left hand with it then he wiped his head with both hands, once. Then he poured water with his right hand three times on his right foot, then he washed it with his left hand. Then he poured water with his right hand on his left foot, then he washed it with his left hand three times. Then he put his right hand in the vessel and scooped up a handful of water and drank. Then he said: This is the wudooʿ of the Prophet of Allah ﷺ; whoever would like to see the wudoo’ of the Prophet of Allah ﷺ, this is his wudoo’.  

جَلَسَ عَلِيٌّ بَعْدَمَا صَلَّى الْفَجْرَ فِي الرَّحَبَةِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِغُلامِهِ ائْتِنِي بِطَهُورٍ فَأَتَاهُ الْغُلامُ بِإِنَاءٍ فِيهِ مَاءٌ وَطَسْتٍ قَالَ عَبْدُ خَيْرٍ وَنَحْنُ جُلُوسٌ نَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ فَأَخَذَ بِيَمِينِهِ الْإِنَاءَ فَأَكْفَأَهُ عَلَى يَدِهِ الْيُسْرَى ثُمَّ غَسَلَ كَفَّيْهِ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ الْيُمْنَى الْإِنَاءَ فَأَفْرَغَ عَلَى يَدِهِ الْيُسْرَى ثُمَّ غَسَلَ كَفَّيْهِ فَعَلَهُ ثَلاثَ مِرَارٍ قَالَ عَبْدُ خَيْرٍ كُلُّ ذَلِكَ لَا يُدْخِلُ يَدَهُ فِي الْإِنَاءِ حَتَّى يَغْسِلَهَا ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى فِي الْإِنَاءِ فَمَضْمَضَ وَاسْتَنْشَقَ وَنَثَرَ بِيَدِهِ الْيُسْرَى فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى فِي الْإِنَاءِ فَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ غَسَلَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ إِلَى الْمِرْفَقِ ثُمَّ غَسَلَ يَدَهُ الْيُسْرَى ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ إِلَى الْمِرْفَقِ ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى فِي الْإِنَاءِ حَتَّى غَمَرَهَا الْمَاءُ ثُمَّ رَفَعَهَا بِمَا حَمَلَتْ مِنَ المَاءِ ثُمَّ مَسَحَهَا بِيَدِهِ الْيُسْرَى ثُمَّ مَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ بِيَدَيْهِ كِلْتَيْهِمَا مَرَّةً ثُمَّ صَبَّ بِيَدِهِ الْيُمْنَى ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ عَلَى قَدَمِهِ الْيُمْنَى ثُمَّ غَسَلَهَا بِيَدِهِ الْيُسْرَى ثُمَّ صَبَّبِيَدِهِ الْيُمْنَى عَلَى قَدَمِهِ الْيُسْرَى ثُمَّ غَسَلَهَا بِيَدِهِ الْيُسْرَى ثَلاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى فَغَرَفَ بِكَفِّهِ فَشَرِبَ ثُمَّ قَالَ هَذَا طُهُورُ نَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ فَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى طُهُورِ نَبِيِّ اللهِ ﷺ فَهَذَا طُهُورُهُ  

[Machine] "He then immersed his hand in the vessel, so he entered his right hand into the vessel and filled his mouth. He rinsed his mouth, sniffed water into his nose, and blew it out with his left hand. He repeated this three times. Then he put his hand back into the vessel and washed his face three times. Afterwards, he washed his right hand three times up to the elbow, then washed his left hand three times up to the elbow. He then put his right hand back into the vessel until the water covered it, and he raised it with the water it held. Then he wiped his head with his left hand, and wiped both of his hands on each other once. Then he poured water onto his right foot three times, then washed it with his left hand. He poured water onto his left foot three times, then washed it with his left hand. Then he said, 'This is the purification of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . So whoever wishes to see the purification of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , this is his purification.'"

Note: The phrase " ﷺ " ﷺ is a customary prayer said after mentioning the names of prophets in Islam.  

أَنْ يُدْخِلَ يَدَهُ فِي الْإِنَاءِ فَأَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى فِي الْإِنَاءِ فَمَلَأَ فَمَهُ فَتَمَضْمَضَ وَاسْتَنْشَقَ وَاسْتَنْثَرَ بِيَدِهِ الْيُسْرَى فَفَعَلَ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثًا ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ فِي الْإِنَاءِ فَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ ثَلَاثًا ثُمَّ غَسَلَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ إِلَى الْمِرْفَقِ ثُمَّ غَسَلَ يَدَهُ الْيُسْرَى ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ إِلَى الْمِرْفَقِ ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى فِي الْإِنَاءِ حَتَّى غَمَرَهَا الْمَاءُ فَرَفَعَهَا بِمَا حَمَلَتْ مِنَ الْمَاءِ ثُمَّ مَسَحَهَا بِيَدِهِ الْيُسْرَى ثُمَّ مَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ بِيَدَيْهِ كِلْتَيْهِمَا مَرَّةً ثُمَّ صَبَّ بِيَدِهِ الْيُمْنَى ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ عَلَى قَدْمِهِ الْيُمْنَى ثُمَّ غَسَلَهَا بِيَدِهِ الْيُسْرَى ثُمَّ صَبَّ بِيَدِهِ الْيُمْنَى عَلَى قَدْمِهِ الْيُسْرَى ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ غَسَلَهَا بِيَدِهِ الْيُسْرَى ثُمَّ قَالَ هَذَا طُهُورُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَمَنْ أَحَبَّ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى طُهُورِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَهَذَا طُهُورُهُ  

" عَنْ عَبْدِ خَيْرٍ قَالَ: أُتِىَ عَلىٌّ بِإِنَاءٍ فِيه مَاء وَطَسْتٍ، فَأخَذَ بِيَمِينِه الإِنَاءَ فَأكْفَأهُ عَلَى يَدِهِ اليُسْرى، ثُمَّ غَسَلَ كَفَّيْه، ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بيَدِه اَليُمْنَى (الإنَاءَ) (*) فَأفَاضَ عَلَى يَده اليُسْرَى، ثُمَّ غَسَلَ كَفَّيْه، فَعَلَهُ ثَلاث مَرَّاتٍ، كُلَّ ذَلِكَ لاَ يُدْخِلُ يَدهُ فِى الإنَاءِ حَتَّى غَسَلَهَا ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ، ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ اليُمْنَى فِى الإنَاء فَمَضْمَضَ وَاسْتَنْشَقَ وَنَثَرهُ بِيَدِهِ اليُسْرَى، فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ (ثَلاَث) مَرَّاتٍ، ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ اليُمْنَى فِى الإِنَاءِ فَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ، ثُمَّ غَسَلَ يَدَهُ اليُمْنَى ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ إِلَى المرْفَقِ، ثُمَّ غَسَلَ يَدَه اليُسْرَى ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ إِلَى المَرَافِقِ، ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ اليُمْنَى حَتَّى أَغْمَرَهَا المَاء، ثُمَّ رَفَعَهَا بمَا حَمَلتْ منَ المَاءِ، ثُمَّ مَسَحَهَا بِيَدِه اليُسْرَى، ثُمَّ مَسَحَ رَأسَهُ بيَدَيْهِ كِلتَيْهِمَا مَرَّةً، ثُمَّ صَبَّ بِيَدِهِ اليُمْنَىَ ثَلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ عَلَى قَدَمِه اليُمْنَى، ثُمَّ غَسَلَهَا بِيَدِه اليُسْرَى ثلاَثَ مَرَّاتٍ ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ اليُسرى فَغَرفَ بكَفِّهِ فَشَرِبَ ثُمَّ قَالَ: هَذَا طَهُورُ نَبِىِّ الله ﷺ مَنْ أحَبَّ أن يَنْظُرَ إِلَى طهُورِ نَبِىِّ الله ﷺ فَهَذَا طُهُورُهُ ".
