Home Hadith Hadith 274
Once the call (Iqama) for the prayer was announced and the rows were straightened. Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)
came out; and when he stood up at his Musalla, he remembered that he was Junub. Then he ordered us
to stay at our places and went to take a bath and then returned with water dropping from his head. He
said, "Allahu-Akbar", and we all offered the prayer with him.
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 5, Hadith 27
← Previous Hadith
Water was placed for the ablution of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) after Janaba. He poured water with his right hand
over his left twice or thrice and then washed his private parts and rubbed his hand on the earth or on a
wall twice or thrice and then rinsed his mouth, washed his nose by putting water in it and then
blowing it out and then washed his face and forearms and poured water over his head and washed his
body. Then he shifted from that place and washed his feet. I brought a piece of cloth, but he did not
take it and removed the traces of water from his body with his hand."

I placed water for the bath of the Prophet (ﷺ) and screened him with a garment. He poured water over his
hands and washed them. After that he poured water with his right hand over his left and washed his
private parts, rubbed his hands with earth and washed them, rinsed his mouth, washed his nose by
putting water in it and then blowing it out and then washed his face and forearms. He poured water
over his head and body. He then shifted from that place and washed his feet. I gave him a piece of
cloth but he did not take it and came out removing the water (from his body) with both his hands.
