Bayhaqi 245 — Washing the face repeatedly

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ، ثنا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ، ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، ثنا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ يَحْيَى الْحَرَّانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ رُكَانَةَ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ الْخَوْلَانِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ عَلِيٌّ وَقَدْ أَهْرَاقَ الْمَاءَ فَدَعَا بِوَضُوءٍ، فَأَتَيْنَاهُ بِتَوْرٍ فِيهِ مَاءٌ حَتَّى وَضَعْنَاهُ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ، فَقَالَ: ⦗٩٠⦘ يَا ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ، أَلَا أُرِيكَ كَيْفَ كَانَ يَتَوَضَّأُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ قُلْتُ: بَلَى. قَالَ: فَأَصْغَى الْإِنَاءَ عَلَى يَدِهِ فَغَسَلَهُمَا، ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ الْيُمْنَى فَأَفْرَغَ بِهَا عَلَى الْأُخْرَى، ثُمَّ غَسَلَ كَفَّيْهِ، ثُمَّ تَمَضْمَضَ وَاسْتَنْشَقَ، ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ يَدَهُ فِي الْإِنَاءِ جَمِيعًا، فَأَخَذَ بِهِمَا حَفْنَةً مِنْ مَاءٍ فَضَرَبَ بِهَا عَلَى وَجْهِهِ، ثُمَّ انْضَمَّ إِبْهَامَيْهِ مَا أَقْبَلَ مِنْ أُذُنَيْهِ، ثُمَّ الثَّانِيَةَ، ثُمَّ الثَّالِثَةَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ، ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِكَفِّهِ الْيُمْنَى قَبْضَةً مِنْ مَاءٍ فَصَبَّهَا عَلَى نَاصِيَتِهِ، فَتَرَكَهَا تَسْتَنُّ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ، وَذَكَرَ بَاقِي الْحَدِيثِ.
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both): Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) came to me; he had relieved himself, then he called for water. We brought him water in a vessel and placed it before him. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Ibn Abbas! Shall I not show you how the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to perform ablution?" I said: "Certainly!" So he tilted the vessel onto his hand and washed his hands, then put his right hand into the vessel and with that hand poured water onto the other hand, then washed his palms, then rinsed his mouth and blew his nose. Then he put both his hands into the vessel together, took a handful (of water) with both hands and struck his face with it, then put his thumbs into the front part of the ears, then did the same a second and a third time. Then he took a handful of water with his right hand and poured it onto his forehead, then he left that water, and the water was flowing down his forehead.
