"كُنْتُ بِأَرْضِ كَذَا أَرْعَى الإِبِلَ فَأَجْنَبْتُ فَتَمعَّكْتُ في التُّرَابِ، فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِىَّ ﷺ فَضَحِكَ وَقَالَ: إِنْ كَانَ يَكْفِيكَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ الصَّعِيدِ أنْ تَنْوِىَ هَكَذَا

وَضَرَبَ بيَدِهِ إِلَى الأَرْضِ ثُمَّ نَفَخَهُمَا، ثُمَّ مَسَحَ بِهِمَا عَلَى وَجْهِهِ وَذِرَاعَيْهِ إِلَى قَرِيبٍ مِنْ نِصْفِ الذِّرَاعِ".
