(حُكْمُ مَسْحِ الأُذُنَيْنِ)
(Ruling on Wiping the Ears)
Hadith 416
وَعَن أبي أُمَامَة ذَكَرَ وُضُوءَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: وَكَانَ يَمْسَحُ الْمَاقَيْنِ وَقَالَ: الْأُذُنَانِ مِنَ الرَّأْسِ. رَوَاهُ ابْنُ مَاجَهْ وَأَبُو دَاوُدَ وَالتِّرْمِذِيُّ وَذَكَرَا: قَالَ حَمَّادٌ: لَا أَدْرِي: الْأُذُنَانِ مِنَ الرَّأْسِ مِنْ قَوْلِ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ أَمْ مِنْ قَوْلُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
Abu Umama mentioned how God’s messenger performed ablution, saying that he used to wipe the corners of his eyes, and he said that the ears are treated as part of the head. Ibn Majah, Abu Dawud and Tirmidhi transmitted it, and the last two mentioned that Hammad said he did not know whether “the ears are treated as part of the head” belongs to what Abu Umama said, or to what God’s messenger said.
