Sunan Abi Dawud 170 (Book 1, Hadith 170) #20461
Performing Ablution and Looking Towards the Sky

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) taught us to perform ablution well and look towards the sky.

'Uqbah b. 'Amir al-JuhanI narrated this tradition from the Prophet in a similar way. He did not mention about tending the camels. After the words "and he performed ablution well" he added the words: "he then raises his eyes towards the sky". He transmitted the tradition conveying the same meaning as that of Mu’awiyah.
حَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ عِيسَى، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْمُقْرِئُ، عَنْ حَيْوَةَ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ شُرَيْحٍ - عَنْ أَبِي عَقِيلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَمِّهِ، عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ الْجُهَنِيِّ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ نَحْوَهُ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ أَمْرَ الرِّعَايَةِ قَالَ عِنْدَ قَوْلِهِ ‏ "‏ فَأَحْسَنَ الْوُضُوءَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ رَفَعَ بَصَرَهُ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ بِمَعْنَى حَدِيثِ مُعَاوِيَةَ
