في الوضوء كم هو مرةHow Many Times to Wash Each Limb in Wudu
Hadith 54
٥٤ - حدثنا أبو الأحوص عن أبي (إسحاق) (١) عن أبي حية قال: رأيت عليا توضأ، فأنقى كفيه، ثم غسل وجهه ثلاثا وذراعيه ثلاثا ومسح برأسه، ثم غسل قدمسه إلى الكعبين، ثم قام فشرب فضل وضوئه، ثم قال: إنما أردت أن أريكم طهور رسول اللَّه ﷺ (٢).
Hazrat Abu Hayyah says that I saw Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that while performing ablution, he first cleaned his hands, then washed his face three times, then washed his arms three times, then wiped his head, then washed both feet including the ankles, then stood up and drank the leftover water of ablution. Then he said that I wanted to teach you the way of ablution of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
