l-mudawwana l-kubra - ablution - p113

l-Mudawwana l-Kubra
Chapter of Ablution
What comes in Ablution
(p.113)



Sahnoun said: I said to Abdu l-Rahman b. l-Qasim:
What did you think of the ablution [l-w·d·u·']? 
Would Malik repeat it once, twice or thrice?

He said:
He only (did) whatever would complete (it).
and Malik didn't keep-count.
And traditions have differed regarding its count.

b. l-Qasim said:
Malik didn't count-out his ablution one time, nor two times, nor three.

He said:
It was said by God, blessed and high:
"O those who believe,
when you stand (to go) toward the Godly-Connection [l-s·l·a·h],
wash your faces,
and both your hands to the elbows,
and wipe over your heads,
and both your feet to the ankles"
[5:6]
and He, blessed and high, didn't count one to three.

b. l-Qasim said:
I didn't see Malik counting during ritual-bathing [l-gh·s·l] nor ablution [l-w·d·u·'], not once, nor twice, nor thrice.

But he did say:
he performed ablution or ritual-bathing altogether completely.


b. Wahb said -> Malik b. Anaas -> 'Amr b Yahya b. 'Umaarah b. Abu Hasan l-maazanee -> his father (Yahya): he heard his grandfather (Abu Hasan) request 'Abdu l-lah b. Zayd b. 'Aasim (and he was a companion of God's messenger ﷺ  - and 'Amr b. Yahya's grandfather):
"are you able to see me (demonstrate) how God's messenger  did ablution?"

'Abdu l-lah said:
"yes"

He said:
Then he called 'Abdu l-lah to the ablution
so he emptied both his hands
then he washed both his hands again and again
then he rinsed his mouth and snuffed-water [i·s·t·n·th·r] thrice
then he washed his face thrice
then he washed both his hands up to the elbows again and again
then he wiped his head with both his hands
then, with them, he clearly (wiped) back and forth from the front [m·q·d·m] of his head until he went to the back of his neck [q·f·a] with them
then he clearly retraced back to the place he had started from with them
then he washed both his feet.

Malik said:
and 'Abdu l-'Azeez b. Abu Salamah is the most excellent of what we've heard regarding that
and this is the predominant-practise [3·m·m] with us regarding 'wiping the head'.



Sahnoun said -> b. Wahb mentioned -> Younis b. Yazeed -> b. Shihaab that -> 'Ataa' b. Yazeed l-laythee informed him that -> Himraan mawla 'Uthman b. 'Affan informed him that:
'Uthman b. 'Affan called Youmaa to do ablution,
so he did ablution
then he washed both his palms three times
then he rinsed his mouth and snuffed-water [i·s·t·n·th·r] three times
then he washed his face three times
then he washed his right hand up to the elbow three times
then he also washed his left hand up to the elbow three times
then he wiped his head and both his ears
then he washed his right foot up to the ankle three times
then he washed his left foot up to the ankle three times
and he told us that God's messenger ﷺ  did ablution like this ablution of mine
then God's messenger ﷺ  said:
"whoever does ablution like this ablution of mine
then stands up
then bows twice (i.e. completes two units of an optional Godly-Connection [l-s·l·a·h])
not talking to himself within them
he (will) have forgiveness for whatever sins preceded"

b. Wahab -> b. Shihaab said: -> our scholars in Medina were saying:
For the Godly-Connection [l-s·l·a·h], this ablution was more-than-enough (to completely clean) whatever it was one did ablution for.

(D - Evidence for doing ablution without counting)
Sahnoun -> 'Alee b. Zayd -> Sufyan l-Thawree -> Zayd b. Aslam -> 'Ataa' b. Yusaar -> Abu 'Abbaas that he said:
"did I not inform you about the ablution of God's Messenger ?
He said:
"so he called for water
then he showed them again and again
then he held (the water) in his right hand
then he poured it onto his left hand
then he did ablution again and again"

Wakee'a narrated -> 'Alee -> Sufyan -> 'Abdu l-lah b. Jabir that it reached him -> Ibrahim l-Nakha'ee said:
my narration is from 'Umar b. l-Khattab's opinion:
He did ablution again and again



Sahnoun said -> Wakee'a -> Sufyan -> 'Abdu l-lah b. Jabir said:
l-Hasan l-Basaree asked about ablution saying:
(Does) He reward you for (doing it) one time or two times or three?

Wakee'a said -> Sufyan -> Jabir b. Yazeed l-Ja'fee -> l-sha'bee said:
He rewards you for (doing it) one time if it was complete

Sahnoun said -> b. Wahab ->
God's messenger did ablution and snuffed-water [i·s·t·n·th·r] from a single scoop (of water) [gh·r·f·h].
