Sayyiduna Thawban (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Follow the right path, adopt moderation, act (righteously), and give preference (to the best deeds), and know that your best deed is prayer, and only a believer is the one who guards his ablution."

Sayyiduna Hudhayfah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, the expanse of my Hawd (cistern) is greater than the distance from Aylah to Aden. By the One in Whose hand is my soul! Its cups are more numerous than the stars, its water is whiter than milk and sweeter than honey. By the One in Whose hand is my soul! I will surely drive away some people from my Hawd just as a man drives away a strange camel from his cistern." It was said: O Messenger of Allah! Will you recognize us? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Yes! You will come to me with your foreheads, hands, and feet shining due to the effects of ablution. This sign (and virtue) will not be for anyone else."

Abu Hazim says: I was behind Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), he performed ablution for prayer, and (while washing his arms) he extended his hand up to the armpits. I said: Abu Hurairah! What kind of ablution is this? He said: Banu Farukh! Are you also present here? If I had known that you people were here, I would not have performed ablution in this manner. I have heard my beloved (Prophet) (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "The adornment of a believer will reach as far as the water of ablution reaches."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Busr Mazani (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I will recognize every individual of my Ummah on the Day of Resurrection." The companions asked: O Messenger of Allah! How will you recognize them when the creatures will be so numerous? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "If you enter a stable and there are all black horses, but among them there is a horse whose forehead and legs are white, would you recognize that horse?" He said: Why not. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then, due to prostration, the foreheads of my Ummah and, due to ablution, their hands and feet will be shining. (Because of this distinguishing mark, I will recognize them)."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) was at the place of Rabadhah among his goats. When he returned, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called out to him: "Abu Dharr!" But he remained silent. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called out repeatedly, but he remained silent. Finally, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Abu Dharr! May your mother find you lost." This time he said: I am in a state of janabah (ritual impurity). So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered a slave girl to bring water. When she brought the water, he took cover behind his mount and performed ghusl (ritual bath), and then came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "(In such a situation) dust is sufficient for you, even if you do not find water for twenty years or ten years. When you find water, then let it touch your skin (i.e., perform ghusl)."

Sayyiduna Ammar bin Yasir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said regarding tayammum: "For the face and the hands, strike (the hands) once (on the earth)."

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would urinate and perform istinja with earth. I said: O Messenger of Allah! Indeed, water is close to you? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What do I know, perhaps I may not reach there."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Salman (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Touch the earth, for it is compassionate towards you."

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that Sayyidah Khawlah bint Yasaar (may Allah be pleased with her) came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! I have only one garment, in which I also experience menstruation, so what should I do about it? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When you become pure, wash it and then pray in it." She said: What if the blood does not come out of it? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Water alone is sufficient for you, and its trace will not harm you."

It is narrated from Sayyidah Asma bint Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with her), she says that a woman asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: If menstrual blood gets on any of our clothes, what should she do to purify it? The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When menstrual blood gets on any of your clothes, she should rub it (with water), then pour water over it and wash it." And in another narration: "Rub it with water, then pour water over the remaining part and wash it, then pray in it."
