وعنه رضي الله عنه: أنه رأى النبي صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم يأخذ لأذنيه ماء غير الماء الذي أخذه لرأسه.أخرجه البيهقي ، وقال :إسناه صحيح ، وصححه الترمذي أيضا. وهو عند مسلم من هذا الوجه بلفظ: ومسح برأسه بماء غير فضل يديه. وهو المحفوظ.
Narrated ‘Abdullah bin Zaid (rad): He saw the Prophet (ﷺ) taking some water to wipe his ears other than the water he had taken to wipe his head. [Reported by Al-Baihaqi, who said that its Isnad (chain of narrators) is authentic and At-Tirmidhi also graded it Sahih]. And the words of the Muslim version are: “he wiped his head taking extra water from that he had taken for the washing of the hands”, and this Hadith is Al-Mahfuz.
