Follow in the footsteps of their beloved prophet , Perform rituals according to his teachings , Strive for excellence in all aspects of life .

This hadith is about how Uthman and Ali performed ablution, which is a ritual washing of certain parts of the body before prayer. They washed each part three times, as this was how the Messenger of Allah used to perform ablution. This shows us that it is important for Muslims to follow in the footsteps of their beloved prophet and perform their rituals in accordance with his teachings. It also teaches us that we should be mindful when performing our religious duties and take care not to miss any steps or rush through them without paying attention. Furthermore, it reminds us that we should strive for excellence in all aspects of our lives by following examples set by those who have gone before us.
