ABLUTION OF THE PROPHET, praise and peace be upon him, WHEN HE WAS ON A JOURNEY H 797 Mughirah was with the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, one night during a journey and asked him, 'Have you any water with you?' Mughirah replied that he had. Then he dismounted and walked away into the darkness. When he returned he poured the water from a vessel and washed his face. He was wearing a long woolen coat and could not roll up his sleeves to uncover his arms so he pulled his arms through the sleeves into the inside of the coat and washed his arms. Then he passed his hands over his head. Mughirah reached out his hand to remove his socks, but he said, 'Leave them, I put them on after I had washed my feet' and he wiped his hands over them." We are also informed: "He was wearing a tight-sleeved Syrian long coat. And the occurrence took place during the campaign of Tabuk." R 797 Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Mughirah, the son of Shu'bah who related this.
787- وعن المغيرة بن شُعْبَةَ رضي الله عنه ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ مَعَ رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم ذاتَ لَيْلَةٍ في مسير ، فَقَالَ لي : "أمَعَكَ مَاءٌ ؟" قلتُ : نَعَمْ ، فَنَزَلَ عَنْ رَاحِلَتِهِ فَمَشَى حَتَّى تَوَارَى في سَوَادِ اللَّيْلِ ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ فَأفْرَغْتُ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الإدَاوَةِ ، فَغَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ وَعَلَيْهِ جُبَّةٌ مِنْ صُوفٍ ، فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أنْ يُخْرِجَ ذِرَاعَيْهِ مِنْهَا حَتَّى أخْرَجَهُمَا مِنْ أسْفَلِ الْجُبَّةِ ، فَغَسَلَ ذِرَاعَيْهِ وَمَسَحَ بِرَأسِهِ ، ثُمَّ أهْوَيْتُ لأَنْزَعَ خُفَّيْهِ ، فَقَالَ : "دَعْهُمَا فَإنِّي أَدْخَلْتُهُمَا طَاهِرَتَيْنِ" وَمَسحَ عَلَيْهِمَا . متفقٌ عَلَيْهِ . وفي رواية : وَعَلَيْهِ جُبَّةٌ شَامِيَّةٌ ضَيِّقَةُ الكُمَّيْنِ . وفي رواية : أنَّ هذِهِ القَضِيَّةَ كَانَتْ في غَزْوَةِ تَبُوكَ .
