Hadith 3:23
'Abd al-Razzaq narrated to us, Ma'mar informed us, from al-Zuhri, from 'Ata' ibn Yazid al-Laythi, from Humran ibn Aban, who said: I saw 'Uthman ibn 'Affan perform ablution (wudu'). He poured [water] over his hands three times and washed them. Then he rinsed his mouth and cleaned his nose (istanthara). Then he washed his face three times. Then he washed his right hand up to the elbow three times, then the left one likewise. Then he wiped his head. Then he washed his right foot three times, then the left one likewise. Then he said: I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) perform ablution similar to this ablution of mine. Then he said: "Whoever performs ablution like this ablution of mine, then prays two rak'ahs in which he does not speak to himself (i.e., does not let his mind wander), his past sins will be forgiven."
حدثنا عبد الرزاق، أخبرنا معمر، عن الزهري، عن عطاء بن يزيد الليثي، عن حمران بن أبان، قال: رأيت عثمان بن عفان توضأ، فأفرغ على يديه ثلاثا فغسلهما، ثم مضمض واستنثر، ثم غسل وجهه ثلاثا، ثم غسل يده اليمنى إلى المرفق ثلاثا، ثم اليسرى مثل ذلك، ثم مسح برأسه، ثم غسل قدمه اليمنى ثلاثا، ثم اليسرى مثل ذلك، ثم قال: رأيت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم توضأ نحوا من وضوئي هذا، ثم قال: " من توضأ وضوئي هذا، ثم صلى ركعتين لا يحدث فيهما نفسه، غفر له ما تقدم من ذنبه " .
