Sayyiduna Mughirah bin Shu'bah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates from the Noble Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him): (Once) the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) went out to relieve himself, so Sayyiduna Mughirah (may Allah be pleased with him) followed him carrying a vessel of water. When the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) finished relieving himself, Sayyiduna Mughirah (may Allah be pleased with him) poured water over (the blessed limbs of) the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) while he performed ablution, and the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) wiped over his leather socks.
