Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah narrated to us, Waki' narrated to us — and Abu Kurayb narrated to us, Abu Mu'awiyah narrated to us — both of them from al-A'mash, with this same chain of transmission, except that they both said: "You will be on that day among the people only like a white hair on a black ox, or like a black hair on a white ox." And they did not mention "or like the mark on the foreleg of a donkey."

Narrated Ishaq ibn Mansur: Habbān ibn Hilāl narrated to us: Abān narrated to us: Yaḥyā narrated to us that Zayd narrated to him that Abū Sallām narrated to him from Abū Mālik al-Ashʿarī, who said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Purity is half of faith, and al-ḥamdu lillāh (praise be to Allah) fills the Scale. And subḥānallāh (glory be to Allah) and al-ḥamdu lillāh (praise be to Allah) fill — or fill — what is between the heavens and the earth. And prayer is light, and charity is proof, and patience is illumination, and the Qurʾān is an argument for you or against you. Every person sets out in the morning, and sells his soul, either freeing it or destroying it."

Sa‘īd ibn Manṣūr, Qutaybah ibn Sa‘īd, and Abū Kāmil al-Jaḥdarī narrated to us — and the wording is that of Sa‘īd — they said: Abū ‘Awānah narrated to us, from Simāk ibn Ḥarb, from Muṣ‘ab ibn Sa‘d, who said: ‘Abd Allāh ibn ‘Umar entered upon Ibn ‘Āmir to visit him while he was ill, and he said: “Will you not supplicate to Allah for me, O Ibn ‘Umar?” He said: “Indeed, I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: ‘No prayer is accepted without purification, and no charity is accepted from ill-gotten gains.’ And you were the governor of Basrah.”

Narrated to us Muhammad ibn al-Muthanna and Ibn Bashshar, both said: narrated to us Muhammad ibn Ja'far, narrated to us Shu'bah. And narrated to us Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah, narrated to us Husayn ibn 'Ali, from Za'idah. Abu Bakr said: and Waki' from Isra'il, all of them from Simak ibn Harb, with this chain of transmission, from the Prophet ﷺ, a similar narration.

Muhammad ibn Rafi' narrated to us, saying: 'Abd al-Razzaq ibn Hammam narrated to us, saying: Ma'mar ibn Rashid narrated to us, from Hammam ibn Munabbih, the brother of Wahb ibn Munabbih, who said: This is what Abu Hurayrah narrated to us, from Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. Then he mentioned hadiths, among them: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The prayer of any one of you is not accepted if he becomes ritually impure until he performs ablution."

Narrated to me Abu al-Tahir Ahmad ibn 'Amr ibn 'Abdullah ibn 'Amr ibn Sarh and Harmalah ibn Yahya al-Tujibi, both said: Ibn Wahb informed us, from Yunus, from Ibn Shihab, that 'Ata' ibn Yazid al-Laythi informed him that Humran, the freed slave of 'Uthman, informed him that 'Uthman ibn 'Affan — may Allah be pleased with him — called for water for ablution and performed ablution: he washed his hands three times, then rinsed his mouth and sniffed water into his nose and blew it out, then washed his face three times, then washed his right arm up to the elbow three times, then washed his left arm likewise, then wiped his head, then washed his right foot up to the ankles three times, then washed his left foot likewise. Then he said: "I saw the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, perform ablution like this ablution of mine." Then the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever performs ablution like this ablution of mine, then stands and prays two rak'ahs without letting his mind wander in them, his previous sins will be forgiven." Ibn Shihab said: Our scholars used to say: This is the most complete ablution with which anyone performs ablution for prayer.

And Zuhayr ibn Harb narrated to me, saying: Ya'qub ibn Ibrahim narrated to us, saying: my father narrated to us, from Ibn Shihab, from 'Ata' ibn Yazid al-Laythi, from Humran, the freed slave of 'Uthman, that he saw 'Uthman call for a vessel, then pour water over his hands three times and wash them. Then he put his right hand into the vessel, rinsed his mouth, and snuffed water into his nose. Then he washed his face three times, and his hands up to the elbows three times. Then he wiped his head, then washed his feet three times. Then he said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever performs ablution like this ablution of mine, then prays two rak'ahs without letting his mind wander in them, his previous sins will be forgiven."

Qutaybah ibn Sa‘id, ‘Uthman ibn Muhammad ibn Abi Shaybah, and Ishaq ibn Ibrahim al-Hanzali narrated to us—and the wording is that of Qutaybah. Ishaq said: "We were informed," while the other two said: "We were narrated to"—by Jarir, from Hisham ibn ‘Urwah, from his father, from Humran, the freed slave of ‘Uthman, who said: I heard ‘Uthman ibn ‘Affan while he was in the courtyard of the mosque. The muezzin came to him at the time of the afternoon prayer, and he called for water for ablution, performed the ablution, then said: "By Allah, I will surely narrate to you a hadith; were it not for a verse in the Book of Allah, I would not have narrated it to you. Indeed, I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: 'No Muslim man performs ablution and does it well, then prays a prayer, except that Allah forgives him what is between it and the prayer that follows it.'"

And it was narrated to us by Abu Kurayb: Abu Usamah narrated to us. (Another chain:) And Zuhayr ibn Harb and Abu Kurayb narrated to us, both saying: Waki' narrated to us. (Another chain:) And Ibn Abi 'Umar narrated to us: Sufyan narrated to us. All of them narrated from Hisham with this chain of transmission. In the narration of Abu Usamah, it says: "Then he performs his ablution well, then prays the prescribed prayer."

And Zuhayr ibn Harb narrated to us, Ya'qub ibn Ibrahim narrated to us, our father narrated to us, from Salih, who said: Ibn Shihab said, "But 'Urwah narrates from Humran that he said: When 'Uthman performed ablution, he said, 'By Allah, I will certainly tell you a hadith, and by Allah, were it not for a verse in the Book of Allah, I would not have told it to you. Indeed, I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: "No man performs ablution and does it well, then prays the prayer, except that it is forgiven for him what is between it and the prayer that follows it."'" 'Urwah said: The verse is (Indeed, those who conceal what We sent down of clear proofs and guidance) up to His saying (the cursers).

Abd ibn Humayd and Hajjaj ibn al-Sha’ir narrated to us, both of them from Abu al-Walid. Abd said: Abu al-Walid narrated to me, saying: Ishaq ibn Sa’id ibn ‘Amr ibn Sa’id ibn al-‘As narrated to us, saying: My father narrated to me, from his father, who said: I was with ‘Uthman when he called for water for ablution, and he said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: “There is no Muslim man who, when an obligatory prayer comes due, performs its ablution, humility, and bowing well, except that it will be an expiation for the sins committed before it, as long as he has not committed a major sin—and that applies for all time.”

Qutaybah ibn Sa'id and Ahmad ibn 'Abdah al-Dabbi narrated to us, both saying: 'Abd al-'Aziz — namely al-Darawardi — narrated to us from Zayd ibn Aslam, from Humran, the freed slave of 'Uthman, who said: I brought water for ablution to 'Uthman ibn 'Affan, and he performed ablution. Then he said: People are narrating from the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, traditions whose nature I do not know, except that I saw the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, perform ablution like this ablution of mine. Then he said: "Whoever performs ablution in this manner, his previous sins will be forgiven, and his prayer and his walking to the mosque will be an extra reward." In the narration of Ibn 'Abdah: I came to 'Uthman, and he performed ablution.

Qutaybah ibn Sa'id, Abu Bakr ibn Abi Shaybah, and Zuhayr ibn Harb narrated to us — and the wording is that of Qutaybah and Abu Bakr — they said: Waki' narrated to us, from Sufyan, from Abu al-Nadr, from Abu Anas, that 'Uthman performed ablution at al-Maqa'id and said: "Shall I not show you the ablution of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him?" Then he performed ablution, washing each part three times. Qutaybah added in his narration: Sufyan said: Abu al-Nadr said, from Abu Anas, who said: And with him were men from among the companions of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him.

Abu Kurayb Muhammad ibn al-'Ala' and Ishaq ibn Ibrahim narrated to us, both from Waki'. Abu Kurayb said: Waki' narrated to us, from Mis'ar, from Jami' ibn Shaddad Abu Sakhrah, who said: I heard Humran ibn Aban say: I used to prepare the water for ablution for 'Uthman, and no day passed but he would pour water over himself [for purification]. And 'Uthman said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, addressed us as we were departing from this prayer of ours—Mis'ar said: I think it was the afternoon prayer—and he said: "I do not know whether I should tell you something or remain silent." So we said: O Messenger of Allah, if it is good, then tell us, and if it is otherwise, then Allah and His Messenger know best. He said: "There is no Muslim who performs ablution and completes the purification that Allah has prescribed upon him, then prays these five prayers, except that they will be expiations for what is between them."

Ubaydullah ibn Mu‘adh narrated to us: my father narrated to us. (Another chain:) Muhammad ibn al-Muthanna and Ibn Bashshar narrated to us, both saying: Muhammad ibn Ja‘far narrated to us. All of them said: Shu‘bah narrated to us, from Jami‘ ibn Shaddad, who said: I heard Humran ibn Aban narrating to Abu Burdah in this mosque during the governorship of Bishr, that ‘Uthman ibn ‘Affan said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever completes the ablution as Allah the Exalted has commanded him, the prescribed prayers are expiations for what is between them." This is the narration of Ibn Mu‘adh, and in the narration of Ghandar there is no mention of "during the governorship of Bishr" nor the mention of "the prescribed prayers."

Harun ibn Sa‘id al-Ayli narrated to us, Ibn Wahb narrated to us, he said: and Makhramah ibn Bukayr informed me, from his father, from Humran, the freed slave of ‘Uthman, who said: ‘Uthman ibn ‘Affan performed ablution one day, doing it well, then said: I saw the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, perform ablution and do it well, then he said: "Whoever performs ablution like this, then goes out to the mosque with nothing impelling him but the prayer, his previous sins will be forgiven."

And Abu al-Tahir and Yunus ibn Abd al-A'la narrated to me; they said: Abdullah ibn Wahb informed us, from Amr ibn al-Harith, that al-Hukaym ibn Abdullah al-Qurashi narrated to him that Nafi' ibn Jubayr and Abdullah ibn Abi Salama narrated to him that Mu'adh ibn Abd al-Rahman narrated to them, from Humran, the freed slave of Uthman ibn Affan, from Uthman ibn Affan, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: "Whoever performs ablution for prayer and perfects the ablution, then walks to the prescribed prayer and prays it with the people, or with the congregation, or in the mosque, Allah will forgive him his sins."

Narrated to me Nasr ibn ʿAlī al-Jahḍamī: ʿAbd al-Aʿlā informed us: Hishām narrated to us, from Muḥammad, from Abū Hurayrah, from the Prophet ﷺ, who said: "The five prayers, and from one Friday to the next Friday, are expiations for what is between them."

Abu al-Tahir and Harun ibn Sa'id al-Ayli narrated to me, both saying: Ibn Wahb informed us, from Abu Sakhr, that 'Umar ibn Ishaq, the freed slave of Za'idah, narrated to him from his father, from Abu Hurayrah, that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to say: "The five daily prayers, and from one Friday to the next Friday, and from one Ramadan to the next Ramadan, are expiations for what is between them, if one avoids the major sins."
