It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) wiped his head with both his hands, moving both hands from the front to the back and from the back to the front. He started from the forehead and took them to the nape of the neck, then brought them back to the place from where he had started.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) performed ablution, he washed his blessed face three times, and washed both his hands twice, then wiped his head and (in wiping) started from the forehead, then washed both his feet.
