Bayhaqi 693 — The Sunnah of trimming the nails and moustache

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، وَأَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو، قَالَا: ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، ثنا أَيُّوبُ بْنُ سُوَيْدٍ، عَنْ عِيسَى، عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ التَّيْمِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي مِجْلَزٍ، قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ ابْنَ عُمَرَ قَصَّ أَظْفَارَهُ، فَقُلْتُ: أَلَا تَتَوَضَّأُ؟، فَقَالَ: " مِمَّ أَتَوَضَّأُ لَأَنْتَ أَكْيَسُ فِي نَفْسِكَ مِمَّنْ سَمَّاهُ أَهْلُهُ كَيِّسًا " وَرُوِّينَاهُ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي الرَّجُلِ يَقُصُّ أَظْفَارَهُ بَعْدَ الْوُضُوءِ: هُوَ طُهُورُهُ، وَعَنِ الْحَسَنِ، لَيْسَ فِيهِ وُضُوءٌ، وَعَنْ عَطَاءٍ أَمْسِسْهُ الْمَاءَ، وَعَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، كَذَلِكَ، وَعَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، إِنْ شَاءَ مَسَحَ عَلَيْهِ بِمَاءٍ وَإِنْ شَاءَ تَرَكَ.
(a) It is narrated from Abu Mijlaz (may Allah have mercy on him): I saw Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) clip his nails, and I said: "Will you not perform ablution?" He said: "For what should I perform ablution? Do you think yourself cleverer because your family has named you clever?"
(b) It is narrated from al-Sha'bi (may Allah have mercy on him) that he said about a man who clips his nails after ablution: It is (a means of) purification for him.
(c) Al-Hasan (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "There is no ablution for it," and Ata' (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "He should touch it with water." The same is narrated from Ibrahim (may Allah have mercy on him). Al-Zuhri (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "If he wishes he may wipe over it with water, and if he wishes he may leave it."
