حَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ، نا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْمُخَرِّمِيُّ ، نا صَفْوَانُ بْنُ عِيسَى ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ دَارَةَ مَوْلَى عُثْمَانَ ، قَالَ : دَخَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ ، يَعْنِي عَلَى عُثْمَانَ مَنْزِلَهُ ، فَسَمِعَنِي وَأَنَا أَتَمَضْمَضُ ، فَقَالَ : يَا مُحَمَّدُ ، قُلْتُ : لَبَّيْكَ ، قَالَ : أَلا أُحَدِّثُكَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ قُلْتُ : بَلَى ، قَالَ : " رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أُتِيَ بِمَاءٍ وَهُوَ عِنْدَ الْمَقَاعِدِ فَمَضْمَضَ ثَلاثًا ، وَنَثَرَ ثَلاثًا ، وَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ ثَلاثًا ، وَذِرَاعَيْهِ ثَلاثًا ثَلاثًا ، وَمَسَحَ بِرَأْسِهِ ثَلاثًا ، وَغَسَلَ قَدَمَيْهِ ثَلاثًا ثَلاثًا " ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " هَكَذَا وُضُوءُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أَحْبَبْتُ أَنْ أُرِيَكُمُوهُ " .
Ibn Darah narrates: I entered the house of Sayyiduna Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him), and when he heard my voice as I was rinsing my mouth, he called out: "O Muhammad!" I said: "I am here!" He said: "Shall I not tell you the way the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ablution?" I replied: "Yes, indeed!" So Sayyiduna Uthman Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "I remember well about the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), water was brought for him while he was sitting in the courtyard, he rinsed his mouth three times, put water into his nose three times, washed his face three times, washed both his arms three times each, wiped his head three times, washed both his feet three times each, and (then Sayyiduna Uthman, may Allah be pleased with him, said): 'This is the way the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ablution, and I liked to show you this.'"
