Hadith 727

عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ سَعْدَ بْنَ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ يَمْسَحُ عَلَى خُفَّيْهِ بِالْعِرَاقِ حِينَ يَتَوَضَّأُ، فَأَنْكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِ، قَالَ: فَلَمَّا اجْتَمَعْنَا عِنْدَ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ لِي: سَلْ أَبَاكَ عَمَّا أَنْكَرْتَ عَلَيَّ مِنْ مَسْحِ الْخُفَّيْنِ، قَالَ: فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ: إِذَا حَدَّثَكَ سَعْدٌ بِشَيْءٍ فَلَا تَرُدَّ عَلَيْهِ، فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ يَمْسَحُ عَلَى الْخُفَّيْنِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I saw Sayyiduna Sa’d bin Abi Waqqas (may Allah be pleased with him) in Iraq that when he performed ablution, he would wipe over his leather socks. I objected to this action of his. Then it happened that when we gathered in the presence of Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), he said to me: Regarding your objection to wiping over the leather socks, ask your father about it. So I mentioned this matter to my father, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), and he replied: When Sayyiduna Sa’d (may Allah be pleased with him) tells you something, do not reject it, because indeed the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to wipe over the leather socks.
