Yahya related to me from Malik from al-Ala ibn Abd ar-Rahman from his father from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, went to the burial grounds and said, "Peace be upon you, home of a people who believe! We shall be among you, Allah willing. I wish that I had seen our brothers!" The people with him said, "Messenger of Allah! Are we not your brothers?" "No," he said, "You are my companions. Our brothers are those who have not yet come. And I will precede them to the Hawd. (The Hawd:the watering place of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, from which he will give to the people of his community on the day of rising.)" They asked him, "Messenger of Allah! How will you recognise those of your community who come after you?" He said, "Doesn't a man who has horses with white legs and white blazes on their foreheads among totally black horses recognise which ones are his own?" They said, "Of course, Messenger of Allah." He went on, "Even so will they come on the day of rising with white marks on their foreheads, hands and feet from wudu, and I will precede them to the Hawd. Some men will be driven away from the Hawd as if they were straying camels and I shall call out to them, 'Will you not come? Will you not come? Will you not come?' and someone will say, 'They changed things after you,' so I shall say, 'Then away with them, away with them, away with them

وحدثني عن مالك، عن العلاء بن عبد الرحمن، عن ابيه، عن ابي هريرة، ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم خرج الى المقبرة فقال " السلام عليكم دار قوم مومنين وانا ان شاء الله بكم لاحقون وددت اني قد رايت اخواننا " . فقالوا يا رسول الله السنا باخوانك قال " بل انتم اصحابي واخواننا الذين لم ياتوا بعد وانا فرطهم على الحوض " . فقالوا يا رسول الله كيف تعرف من ياتي بعدك من امتك قال " ارايت لو كان لرجل خيل غر محجلة في خيل دهم بهم الا يعرف خيله " . قالوا بلى يا رسول الله . قال " فانهم ياتون يوم القيامة غرا محجلين من الوضوء وانا فرطهم على الحوض فلا يذادن رجال عن حوضي كما يذاد البعير الضال اناديهم الا هلم الا هلم الا هلم فيقال انهم قد بدلوا بعدك فاقول فسحقا فسحقا فسحقا

Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa from his father from Humran, the mawla of Uthman ibn Affan, that Uthman ibn Affan was once sitting on the Maqaid (the benches surrounding the Madina Mosque, or else a stone near Uthman ibn Affan's house where he sat to discuss with people), when the muadhdhin came and told him that it was time for the asr prayer. He called for water and did wudu. Then he said, "By Allah, I shall tell you something which I would not tell you if it were not in the Book of Allah. I heard the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say, 'If a man does wudu, and makes sure he does it correctly, and then does the prayer, he will be forgiven everything that he does between then and the time when he prays the next prayer.' " Yahya said that Malik said, "I believe he meant this ayat - 'Establish prayer at the two ends of the day and in some watches of the night. Good actions take away wrong actions. That is a reminder for those who remember.' " (Sura 11 ayat)

Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from Ata ibn Yasar from Abdullah as-Sanabihi that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "A trusting slave does wudu and as he rinses his mouth the wrong actions leave it. As he cleans his nose the wrong actions leave it. As he washes his face, the wrong actions leave it, even from underneath his eyelashes. As he washes his hands the wrong actions leave them, even from underneath his fingernails. As he wipes his head the wrong actions leave it, even from his ears. And as he washes his feet the wrong actions leave them, even from underneath the toenails of both his feet." He added, "Then his walking to the mosque and his prayer are an extra reward for him

وحدثني عن مالك، عن زيد بن اسلم، عن عطاء بن يسار، عن عبد الله الصنابحي، ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال " اذا توضا العبد المومن فتمضمض خرجت الخطايا من فيه واذا استنثر خرجت الخطايا من انفه فاذا غسل وجهه خرجت الخطايا من وجهه حتى تخرج من تحت اشفار عينيه فاذا غسل يديه خرجت الخطايا من يديه حتى تخرج من تحت اظفار يديه فاذا مسح براسه خرجت الخطايا من راسه حتى تخرج من اذنيه فاذا غسل رجليه خرجت الخطايا من رجليه حتى تخرج من تحت اظفار رجليه - قال - ثم كان مشيه الى المسجد وصلاته نافلة له

As he washes his hands every wrong action he has done with his hands leaves with the water (orthe last drop of water). And as he washes his feet every wrong action his feet have walked to leaves with the water (or the last drop of water) so that he comes away purified of wrong actions

وحدثني عن مالك، عن سهيل بن ابي صالح، عن ابيه، عن ابي هريرة، ان رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال " اذا توضا العبد المسلم - او المومن - فغسل وجهه خرجت من وجهه كل خطيية نظر اليها بعينيه مع الماء - او مع اخر قطر الماء - فاذا غسل يديه خرجت من يديه كل خطيية بطشتها يداه مع الماء - او مع اخر قطر الماء فاذا غسل رجليه خرجت كل خطيية مشتها رجلاه مع الماء - او مع اخر قطر الماء - حتى يخرج نقيا من الذنوب

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn Abi Talha that Anas ibn Malik said, "I saw the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, on one occasion when the asr prayer was at hand . Everyone was looking for water for wudu but no- one could find any. Then the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, brought some water in a vessel .

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nuaym ibn Abdullah al-Madani al-Mujmir that he heard Abu Hurayra say, "If someone does wudu and does it correctly and then goes off intending to do the prayer, then he is in prayer as long as he intends to do the prayer. A good action is written for every alternate step he makes and a wrong action is erased for the second. When you hear the iqama do not lengthen your stride, and the one who has the greatest reward is the one whose house is farthest away." They said, "Why, Abu Hurayra?" He replied, "Because of the greater number of steps
