Abu al-Hasan Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Abdus al-'Abdusi al-'Abdi informed me, Mu'adh ibn Najda al-Qurashi narrated to us; and Abu Bakr Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Balawayh narrated to me, Bishr ibn Musa al-Asadi narrated to us — both said: Khallad ibn Yahya al-Sulami narrated to us, Hisham ibn Sa'd narrated to us, Zayd ibn Aslam narrated to us from 'Ata' ibn Yasar, from Hadrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be well pleased with them both), who said: 'Would you like me to show you how the Beloved Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to perform ablution?' Then he called for a vessel containing water. He scooped one scoop and rinsed his mouth and nose. Then he took another scoop and joined both his hands and washed his face. Then he took another scoop and washed his right hand. Then he took another scoop and washed his left hand. Then he took a handful of water and shook his hand, then wiped his head and ears with it. Then he scooped another scoop and sprinkled it on his right foot — which had a sandal on it — and the left one likewise, and he wiped the bottom of both sandals. Then he said: 'This is how the Beloved Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) used to perform ablution.' This hadith is authentic according to the conditions of Muslim, yet they did not record it with this wording. They only agreed upon the hadith of Zayd ibn Aslam from 'Ata' from Ibn Abbas that the Beloved Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) performed ablution once each — and that is concise, while this hadith of Hisham ibn Sa'd is detailed.
