Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا خَلَفٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ خَلِيفَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مَالِكٍ الْأَشْجَعِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ (١) خَلْفَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَهُوَ يَتَوَضَّأُ، وَهُوَ يَمُدُّ (٢) الْوَضُوءَ إِلَى إِبْطِهِ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، مَا هَذَا الْوُضُوءُ؟ قَالَ: يَا بَنِي فَرُّوخَ، أَنْتُمْ هَاهُنَا لَوْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّكُمْ هَاهُنَا مَا تَوَضَّأْتُ هَذَا الْوُضُوءَ، إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ خَلِيلِي يَقُولُ: " تَبْلُغُ الْحِلْيَةُ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِ حَيْثُ (٣) يَبْلُغُ، ، الْوُضُوءُ " (١)،

English translation

Abu Hazim says that one day I was standing behind Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) while he was performing ablution, and he was washing his hands up to the armpits. I asked, "Abu Huraira! What kind of ablution is this?" He looked at me and said, "O Bani Farukh, if I had known that you were here, I would never have performed ablution in this manner. (In any case, now that you have found out, listen:) I heard my beloved Prophet (ﷺ) say that the brightness of a Muslim's limbs will reach as far as the water of ablution reaches."
