Sunan Abi Dawud 323 (Book 1, Hadith 323) #20614
How to Perform Wudu According to the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

SUMMARY: This hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) teaching Ammar how to perform wudu (ablution).

Ibn Abza reported on the authority of 'Ammar b. Yasir in this tradition as saying (from the Prophet): 'Ammar, it would have been enough for you (to do) so. He then stuck only one stroke on the ground with both his hands; he then stuck one with the other; then wiped his face and both arms up to half the forearms and did not reach the elbows. Abu Dawud said: This is also transmitted by Waki' from al-A'mash from Salamah b. Kuhail from 'Abd al-Rahman b. Abza. It is also transmitted through a different chain by Jarir from al-A'mash from Salamah from Sa'id b. 'Abd al-Rahman b. Abza from his father.
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ، حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصٌ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبْزَى، عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ يَاسِرٍ، فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ يَا عَمَّارُ إِنَّمَا كَانَ يَكْفِيكَ هَكَذَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ ضَرَبَ بِيَدَيْهِ الأَرْضَ ثُمَّ ضَرَبَ إِحْدَاهُمَا عَلَى الأُخْرَى ثُمَّ مَسَحَ وَجْهَهُ وَالذِّرَاعَيْنِ إِلَى نِصْفِ السَّاعِدَيْنِ وَلَمْ يَبْلُغِ الْمِرْفَقَيْنِ ضَرْبَةً وَاحِدَةً ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَرَوَاهُ وَكِيعٌ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبْزَى وَرَوَاهُ جَرِيرٌ عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبْزَى يَعْنِي عَنْ أَبِيهِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how to perform wudu according to the teachings of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. Wudu is a ritual cleansing that Muslims must do before they can pray or read Quran. It involves washing certain parts of your body with water and it must be done in a specific order. In this hadith, we learn that Ammar was taught by the prophet ﷺ how to do wudu correctly and he only needed one stroke on each part of his body with both hands and then wiping his face and arms up until half way down his forearms but not reaching his elbows. This teaches us that cleanliness is important for Muslims when performing their religious duties as well as being mindful of our actions when doing so. It also shows us that even small acts can have great rewards if done with sincerity and faithfulness towards Allah SWT.
