Narrated Ali ibn AbuTalib: The key to prayer is purification; its beginning is takbir and its end is taslim.

Narrated Aishah : I and the Messenger of Allaah ( sal Allaahu alayhi wa sallam ) took a bath from one vessel while we were sexually defiled.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: AbuGhutayf al-Hudhali reported: I was in the company of Ibn Umar. When the call was made for the noon (zuhr) prayer, he performed ablution and said the prayer. When the call for the afternoon (‘asr) prayer was made, he again performed ablution. Thus I asked him (about the reason of performing ablution). He replied: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: For a man who performs ablution in a state of purity, ten virtuous deeds will be recorded (in his favour). AbuDawud said: This is the tradition narrated by Musaddad, and it is more perfect.

Narrated Aisha, Ummul Mu’minin: My hands and the hands of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) alternated into one vessel while we performed ablution.

Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: The Prophet (ﷺ), was asked about water (in desert country) and what is frequented by animals and wild beasts. He replied: When there is enough water to fill two pitchers, it bears no impurity.

Narrated Ibn ‘Umar: The males and females during the time of the Apostle of Allaah ( sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam ) used to perform the ablution from one vessel together. The wordings “from one vessel” occur in the version of Musaddad.

Narrated Abdullah b. ‘Abd Allah b. ‘Umar: Muhammad ibn Yahya ibn Habban asked Abdullah ibn Abdullah ibn Umar about the reason for Ibn Umar’s performing ablution for every prayer, whether he was with or without ablution. He replied: Asma’, daughter of Zayd ibn al-Khattab, reported to me that Abdullah ibn Hanzalah ibn AbuAmir narrated to her that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was earlier commanded to perform ablution for every prayer whether or not he was with ablution. When it became a burden for him, he was ordered to use tooth-stick for every prayer. As Ibn Umar thought that he had the strength (to perform the ablution for every prayer), he did not give up performing ablution for every prayer. Abu Dawud said: Ibrahim b. Sa’d narrated this tradition on the authority of Muhammad b. Ishaq, and there he mentions the name of ‘Ubaid Allah b. ‘Abd Allah (instead of ‘Abd Allah b. ‘Abd Allah b. ‘Umar)

Narrated Abu Burdah: On the authority of his father ( Abu Musa al-Ash’ari), reported (according to the version of Musaddad) : We came to the Apostle of Allaah (sal Allaahu alayhi wa sallam) to provide us with a mount, and found him using the tooth-stick, its one end being at his tongue (i.e. he wsa rinsing his mouth). According to the version of Sulaiman it goes : I entered upon the Prophet (sal Allaahu alayhi wa sallam ) who was using the tooth-stick, and had it placed at one side of his tongue, producing a gurgling sound. Abu Dawud said : Musaddad said that the tradition was a lengthy but he shortened it.

Narrated Aisha, Ummul Mu’minin: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was using the tooth-stick, when two men, one older than the other, were with him. A revelation came to him about the merit of using the tooth-stick. He was asked to show proper respect and give it to the elder of the two.

Shuraih asked ‘Aishah: “What would the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) do as soon as he entered the house?” She replied: “(He would use) the siwak.”
