Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Abu Zar’ah narrates that I went to Hazrat Abu Hurairah, and during ablution he washed his hands up to the shoulders and his feet up to the knees. I said, “Is not the amount prescribed by Allah sufficient for you?” He replied, “Why not, but I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say that a person’s adornment in Paradise will reach up to the places where the water of ablution reaches. So I desire that my adornment be increased.”
