Humraan (رضي الله عنه) narrates that ‘Uthmaan called for water to make Wudoo’ and washed his hands three times… then said: I saw Rasoolullah (ﷺ) make Wudoo’ just as I have made Wudoo’. [Al-Bukhaaree and Muslim, and as preceded].
Abu Hurairah (رضي الله عنه) said: Rasoolullah (ﷺ) said:
“When one of you awakes from sleep then let him not enter his hand into the bowl/vessel until he washes it three times as he does not know where his hand has spent the night.”
[Al-Bukhaaree (Fath ul-Baaree, 1/229), Muslim and it is his wording, as al-Bukhaaree doesn’t report “three times”]
And in the hadeeth of ‘Abdullaah ibn Zaid (رضي الله عنه) he was asked about the Wudoo’ of the Prophet (ﷺ), so he called for a bowl of water and made Wudoo’ from it as the Prophet (ﷺ) made Wudoo’, and he poured out water from the bowl upon his hand and washed it three times.
[Al-Bukhaaree (al Fath, l/255), Muslim, 3/121].
Aus ibn Abi Aus reports from his grandfather (رضي الله عنه) who said: I saw Rasoolullah (ﷺ) make Wudoo’ washing his hands three times.
[Ahmad (4/9), An-Nasaa’ee (1/55) – with saheeh isnaad]
Al-Madmadah and Al-Istinshaaq
AL-MADMADAH: Is washing the mouth and moving the water around within it.
AL-ISTINSHAAQ: Is taking water into the nose and breathing it into its backmost part.
AL-ISTINTHAAR: Is expelling the water from the nose after istinshaaq.
