Sayyiduna Mughirah bin Shu’bah (may Allah be pleased with him) said that I was with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) on a journey (the expedition of Tabuk). On one occasion, he said,“Mughirah, pick up the water skin.”I picked it up. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) went on and disappeared from my sight; he relieved himself. At that time, he was wearing a Syrian cloak. He wanted to roll up the sleeve to uncover his hand, but it was tight, so he brought his hand out from inside the sleeve. I poured water over his hands; the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ablution as for prayer and wiped over his leather socks (khuffain), then he prayed.
