حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي زِيَادٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ أَخِي ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ ، حَدَّثَنِي صَالِحُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي فَرْوَةَ ، أَنَّ عَامِرَ بْنَ سَعْدٍ أَخْبَرَهُ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَانَ بْنَ عُثْمَانَ ، يَقُولَ : قَالَ عُثْمَانُ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " أَرَأَيْتَ لَوْ كَانَ بِفِنَاءِ أَحَدِكُمْ نَهْرٌ يَجْرِي يَغْتَسِلُ فِيهِ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ ، مَا كَانَ يَبْقَى مِنْ دَرَنِهِ ؟ " ، قَالَ : لَا شَيْءَ ، قَالَ : " فَإِنَّ الصَّلَاةَ تُذْهِبُ الذُّنُوبَ كَمَا يُذْهِبُ الْمَاءُ الدَّرَنَ " .
´‘Uthman said:` “I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: ‘Do you think that if there was a river in the courtyard of anyone of you, and he bathed in it five times each day, would there be any dirt left on him?’ They said: ‘(There would be) nothing.’ He said: ‘Prayer takes away sins like water takes away dirt.’”
