Musnad Ahmad 400 (Book 4, Hadith 2) #34076
The Power of Wudoo and Prayer

SUMMARY: Doing wudoo and praying with sincerity can lead to the forgiveness of sins.

It was narrated from Hisham bin 'Urwah: My father told me that Humran told him: 'Uthman (رضي الله عنه) did wudoo’ in al-Balat (a paved area in Madinah) then he said, i shall tell you a hadeeth that I heard from the Messenger of Allah . Were it not for a verse in the Book of Allah, I would not have told you it. I heard the Prophet say: 'Whoever does wudoo’ and does it well, then goes in and prays, his sins between that prayer and the next will be forgiven, until he prays the second prayer".
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي أَنَّ حُمْرَانَ، أَخْبَرَهُ قَالَ تَوَضَّأَ عُثْمَانُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَلَى الْبَلَاطِ ثُمَّ قَالَ لَأُحَدِّثَنَّكُمْ حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ لَوْلَا آيَةٌ فِي كِتَابِ اللَّهِ مَا حَدَّثْتُكُمُوهُ سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ يَقُولُ مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ فَأَحْسَنَ الْوُضُوءَ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ فَصَلَّى غُفِرَ لَهُ مَا بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الصَّلَاةِ الْأُخْرَى حَتَّى يُصَلِّيَهَا‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks about the power of wudoo and prayer in seeking forgiveness from Allah. It was narrated by Hisham bin 'Urwah who heard it from his father who heard it from Humran who heard it directly from Uthman. Uthman did wudoo in al-Balat before he told this hadith which he heard directly from the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. The Prophet ﷺ said that whoever does wudoo properly and then prays will have their sins forgiven until they pray again. This is a powerful reminder for us to take our worship seriously as we can be forgiven for our mistakes if we do so sincerely. We should strive to make sure that our prayers are done with full concentration and devotion so that we may reap its rewards in this life and the hereafter.
