Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When a person relieves himself, he should perform istinja (cleaning) with three sticks, or with three stones, or by taking a handful of soil three times and using it." This narration is also transmitted with some other chains, and there is some difference found in its chain of transmission.
