It was narrated that Mughirah bin Shu'bah said: "The Prophet went out to relieve himself and when he came back, I met him with a water skin and poured water for him. He washed his hands and his face, then he went to wash his forearms but his garment was too tight, so he brought his arms out from underneath his garment and washed them, then he wiped over his leather socks, then he led us in prayer."

It was narrated that Rubai' bint Mu'awwidh said: "I brought a basin of water to the Prophet and he said: 'Pour it,' so I poured it and he washed his face and forearms, then he took fresh water and wiped his head, front and back, and then he washed his feet. He washed each part three times."

It was narrated that Safwan bin 'Assal said: "I poured water for the Prophet on journeys and as a resident, when he performed ablution."

Umm 'Ayyash, the slave woman of Ruqayyah, the daughter of the Messenger of Allah, said: "I used to help the Messenger of Allah perform ablution, when I was standing and he was sitting."
