Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) went to relieve himself. I brought a bowl or a vessel of water to him. He performed istinja (cleaning) with it, then he wiped his left hand on the ground and washed it. Then I brought (more) water in the vessel to him, and he performed wudu (ablution).
