Busr bin Sa'id narrates: Sayyiduna Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him) came to "Maqa'id", he asked for water for ablution, rinsed his mouth, then put water in his nose, then washed his face three times, then washed both arms three times each, then washed his feet three times each, then wiped his head and said: "I remember this about the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he performed ablution in this manner." Then Sayyiduna Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him) addressed those present and said: "O people! Is it like this?" So those people replied: "Yes!" This was said by some of the companions (may Allah be pleased with them) of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) who were present there at that time. This narration is authentic, however, the delay in wiping the head is not preserved. One narrator is unique in transmitting this, while other narrators have transmitted it with their own chain of narration. All the narrators have transmitted this: Sayyiduna Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him) washed all the limbs three times each, then stated: "I saw the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performing ablution in this manner." These narrators did not transmit anything further besides this. Contrary to this, a narrator named Waki' transmitted with his chain from Sayyiduna Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) washed each limb three times in ablution. Some other narrators have also transmitted it in this regard.
