Abu Hazim (may Allah have mercy on him) says: I was standing behind Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) while he was performing ablution, and he extended the water of ablution up to his armpits. I said: "O Abu Hurairah! What kind of ablution is this?" He said: "O Banu Farukh! Are you people here? If I had known that you were present here, I would not have performed ablution in this manner. I heard my beloved (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'The adornment and beauty of the believer will reach up to the places where the water of ablution reaches.'"
