Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Shall I not show you the ablution (wudu) of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)?" The people said: "Yes, of course." Then he called for water, rinsed his mouth three times, sniffed water into his nose and blew it out three times, washed his face three times, washed his arms three times each, then wiped his head and washed both feet three times each, and then said: "Know that the ears are part of the head. Indeed, I have presented to you the ablution of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)." In the chapter of washing the face, the hadith of Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) has already passed that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) wiped his head once and used to say, "The ears are part of the head."

Busr bin Sa'id (may Allah have mercy on him) says: Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) came to Maqa'id and asked for water for ablution.

O people! Was it like this?" They said: "Yes." Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) had this confirmed by a group of his companions who were present.

Zirr bin Hubaish (may Allah have mercy on him) says: Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) wiped his head during ablution in such a way that it was almost as if drops of water were about to fall, then he said: "I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performing ablution in this manner."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zaid bin Asim (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that he saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performing ablution in such a way that he rinsed his mouth, put water into his nose, then washed his face three times, after that washed his right arm three times and then his left arm three times, then wiped his head with water that was not leftover from his hands, then washed both his feet until he made them clean.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) wiped his head in such a manner that he moved both hands forward and then brought them back. (The detail is that) he started from the front part of the head, took his hands to the nape of the neck, then returned them to where he had started, and then washed his feet.

Abd Khair (may Allah have mercy on him), while describing the ablution of Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), says: Then he put his hand in the vessel and wiped his entire head once with both palms, then washed both feet three times each, then he said: "This is the ablution of your Prophet, learn it." In another narration it is mentioned: He wiped his head in such a way that he moved from the front part of the head to the back part. But the narrator says: I do not know whether he returned his hands or not, then he washed his feet and said: "Whoever wishes to see the ablution of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), this is the ablution of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)."

It is narrated from their grandfather (Sayyiduna Amr bin Ka'b or Ka'b bin Amr, may Allah be pleased with him) that he saw the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, wipe over his head, until he wiped the back part of the head and, along with it, once wiped the front part of the neck that is connected to it. The narrator said: The back part of the neck is called «قَذَال» .

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Miqdam bin Ma'dikarib Kindi (may Allah be pleased with him) that water for ablution was brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He performed ablution, washed both hands three times, washed his face three times, then rinsed his mouth and put water into his nose three times, wiped his head and the outer and inner parts of his ears, and washed his feet three times.

Abu Azhar (may Allah have mercy on him) says that Sayyiduna Muawiyah bin Sufyan (may Allah be pleased with him) described to him the ablution of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). He wiped his head with a handful of water, until drops of water began to fall from his head or were about to fall. In any case, he demonstrated the ablution of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to them. When he reached the wiping of the head, he placed both his palms on the front part of the head, then moved them over the head until he reached the nape, 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 the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ablution. Imam Sufyan said: It has been seventy-four years since Yahya bin Saeed narrated this hadith to me. After some time, I also asked him about it, and Yahya was older than him. Sufyan says: I heard three hadiths from him. So, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) washed his hands twice, his face three times, and wiped his head twice. Imam Ahmad says: I heard this hadith from Sufyan three times. He used to say: He washed his feet twice, but once he narrated it as: He wiped his head once, and twice he narrated it as: He wiped his head twice.
