باب فَضْلِ الْوُضُوءِ:Chapter: The Virtue of Ablution
Hadith 740
أَخْبَرَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ سُفْيَانَ: أَنَّهُمْ غَزَوْا غَزْوَةَ السَّلَاسِلِ، فَرَجَعُوا إِلَى مُعَاوِيَةَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، وَعِنْدَهُ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ، وَعُقْبَةُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، فَقَالَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: "مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ كَمَا أُمِرَ، وَصَلَّى كَمَا أُمِرَ، غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا تَقَدَّمَ مِنْ عَمَلٍ"، أَكَذَاكَ يَا عُقْبَةُ ؟، قَالَ: نَعَمْ.
It is narrated from Asim bin Sufyan that after the Battle of Salasil, those people returned to Sayyiduna Muawiyah (may Allah be pleased with him), and with him were Sayyiduna Abu Ayyub and Sayyiduna Uqbah bin Amir (may Allah be pleased with them both). Sayyiduna Abu Ayyub (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Whoever performs ablution as he has been commanded, and prays as he has been commanded, his previous (bad) deeds are forgiven." O Uqbah! Is it not so? He said: Yes (that is exactly so).
