MERIT OF ABLUTION H 1043 "When a Muslim makes his ablution and washes his face, the water carries away all the sins committed by his eyes. When he washes his hands, the water carries away all the sins committed by his hands and when he washes his feet the water carries away all the sins he had walked in to, so that he emerges cleansed of all his sins." R 1043 Muslim with a chain up to Abu Hurairah who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
1028- وعن أَبي هريرة رضي الله عنه : أنَّ رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم ، قَالَ : "إِذَا تَوَضَّأ العَبْدُ المُسْلِمُ - أَو المُؤْمِنُ - فَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ ، خَرَجَ مِنْ وَجْهِهِ كُلُّ خَطِيئَةٍ نَظَرَ إِلَيْهَا بِعَيْنَيْهِ مَعَ المَاءِ ، أَوْ مَعَ آخِرِ قَطْرِ المَاءِ ، فَإذَا غَسَلَ يَدَيْهِ ، خَرَجَ مِنْ يَدَيْهِ كُلُّ خَطِيئَةٍ كَانَ بَطَشَتْهَا يَدَاهُ مَعَ المَاءِ ، أَو مَعَ آخِرِ قَطْرِ المَاءِ ، فَإذَا غَسَلَ رِجْلَيْهِ ، خَرَجَتْ كُلُّ خَطِيئَةٍ مَشَتْهَا رِجْلاَهُ مَعَ المَاءِ ، أَو مَعَ آخِرِ قَطْرِ المَاءِ ، حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ نَقِيَّاً مِنَ الذُّنُوبِ" رواه مسلم .
