Riyad as-Salihin - On the Excellence of Wudu Hadith

Chapter: On the
Excellence of Wudu'

 

Allah Almighty says, "O you who believe! When you get up to do
the prayer, wash your faces and your hands," to His words, 'Allah does not
want to make things difficult for you, but He does want to purify you and to
perfect His blessing upon you so that perhaps you may show thanks."
(W5:6;
H5:6)

 

1024. Abu Hurayra said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, say, 'On the Day of Rising my community will be called
'those with white blazes on their foreheads and limbs' from the effects of
wudu'.
So whoever of you can increase the extent of the whiteness, should do
so.'" [Agreed upon]

1025. Abu Hurayra said, "I heard my friend, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, say, 'The adornment of the believer reaches the places his wudu'
reaches." [Muslim]

1026. 'Uthman ibn 'Affan reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, said, "Anyone who does wudu' and does it
well, his mistakes leave his body, even from under his nails." [Muslim]

1027. 'Uthman ibn 'Affan said, "I saw the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, do wudu' like I am doing wudu' now. Then
he said, 'Anyone who does wudu' like that, will be forgiven his previous
wrong actions, and his prayer and his walking to the mosque are an added
bonus.'" [Muslim]

1028. Abu Hurayra reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, said, "When the Muslim - or believing - slave does wudu'
and washes his face, every wrong thing at which his eyes have looked leaves
with the water - or with the last drop of water. When he washes his hands, every
wrong thing which his hands have touched leaves with the water - or with the
last drop of water. When he washes his feet. every wrong thing to which his feet
have walked leaves with the water – or with the last drop of water, until he
emerges cleansed of sins." [Muslim]

1029. Abu Hurayra reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, came to the graveyard and said, 'Peace be upon you, abode
of a believing people. Allah willing, we will join you. I wish that we could see
our brothers.' They said, 'Are we not your brothers, Messenger of Allah?' He
said, 'You are my Companions. My brothers are those who have not yet come.' They
said, 'How can you know someone of your community who has not yet come,
Messenger of Allah?' He said, 'Do you not think that if a man had horses with
white blazes which were among dark black horses, that he would recognise his
horses?' They said, 'Yes indeed. Messenger of Allah.' He said, 'They will come
with white blazes from wudu' and I will precede them to the Basin.'"
[Muslim]

1030. Abu Hurayra reported that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, said, "Shall I direct you to something by which Allah will
wipe out errors and raise degrees?' They said, "Yes please, Messenger of Allah."
He said, "Doing thorough wudu' in adverse circumstances, taking a lot of
steps to the mosques and waiting for one prayer after another prayer. That is
what you should hold to. That is what you should hold to." [Muslim]

1031. Abu Malik al-Ash'ari reported said that the Messenger of Allah, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Purity is half of belief." [Muslim]

1032. 'Umar ibn al-Khattab reported that the Prophet, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, said, "No one among you does wudu' and does wudu'
thoroughly -– or adequately - and then testifies, 'There is no god but Allah
Alone with no partner and I testify that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger'
without the eight doors of the Garden being opened to him so that he can enter
by whichever of them he wishes." [Muslim]

At-Tirmidhi adds, "O Allah, make me one of those who repent and put me among
the purified."
