أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيُّ، ثنا أَبُو الْحَسَنِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْحَافِظُ، ثنا ابْنُ صَاعِدٍ، ثنا عَبْدُ الْجَبَّارِ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ، ثنا مَرْوَانُ، ثنا إِسْمَاعِيلُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، عَنْ زِيَادٍ يَعْنِي مَوْلَى بَنِي مَخْزُومٍ، قَالَ: جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ، فَسَأَلَهُ عَنِ الْوُضُوءِ، فَقَالَ: " ابْدَأْ بِالْيَمِينِ أَوْ بِالشِّمَالِ ". فَأَضْرَطَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ بِهِ، ثُمَّ دَعَا بِمَاءٍ فَبَدَأَ بِالشِّمَالِ قَبْلَ الْيَمِينِ ".
(a) Ziyad (may Allah have mercy on him), the freed slave of Banu Makhzum, said: A man came to Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and asked him about ablution, saying: Should I begin with the right or with the left? Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) made a derisive sound at him (in mockery of his question), then called for water and began with the left before the right.
(b) Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I do not mind if I begin with the left before the right.
(c) Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I do not mind, when I complete my ablution, with which limb I begin.
(d) It is possible that what is meant by this is the hadith of Hafs bin Ghiyath. And Allah knows best.
