The Importance of Snuffing Water During Wudu

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught the importance of snuffing water up one's nose and blowing it out again during wudu.

Yahya related to me from Ibn Shihab from Abu Idris al-Khawlani from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "The person doing wudu should snuff water up his nose and blow it out again".
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ أَبِي إِدْرِيسَ الْخَوْلاَنِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ مَنْ تَوَضَّأَ فَلْيَسْتَنْثِرْ وَمَنِ اسْتَجْمَرَ فَلْيُوتِرْ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the importance of snuffing water up one's nose and blowing it out again during wudu. Wudu is a ritual washing performed by Muslims before prayer or other religious activities. According to this hadith narrated by Yahya ibn Shihab from Abu Idris al-Khawlani from Abu Hurayra, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) taught that when performing wudu, one should take some water in their hands and then snuffle it up their nose and blow it out again.
