Jami` at-Tirmidhi: Book 1, Hadith 54

Muadh bin Jabal narrated: “I saw the Prophet when he performed Wudu, he wiped his face with the edge of his garment.” Abu Eisa said: This Hadith is gharib, and its chain is weak. Rishdin bin Sa’d and Abdur- Rahman bin Ziyad bin An’um Al Ifriqi are weak in Hadith. Some people of knowledge among the Companions of the Prophet and those after them, permitted using a towel after Wudu.
Those who disliked it, only disliked it from the view of the saying: “Wudu is weighed.” That as reported from Sa’eed bin Al- Musayyab and Az-Zuhri. Muhammad bin Humaid narrated to us, Jarir narrated to us, he said: Ali bin Mujahid narrated to me, and he is trustworthy to me, from me, from: Tha’labah from Az-Zuhri, he said: “The towel is only disliked after Wudu because Wudu is weighed.”

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا رِشْدِينُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ زِيَادِ بْنِ أَنْعُمٍ، عَنْ عُتْبَةَ بْنِ حُمَيْدٍ، عَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ نُسَىٍّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ غَنْمٍ، عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ، قَالَ رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا تَوَضَّأَ مَسَحَ وَجْهَهُ بِطَرَفِ ثَوْبِهِ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ وَإِسْنَادُهُ ضَعِيفٌ ‏.‏ وَرِشْدِينُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ وَعَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ زِيَادِ بْنِ أَنْعُمٍ الإِفْرِيقِيُّ يُضَعَّفَانِ فِي الْحَدِيثِ ‏.‏ وَقَدْ رَخَّصَ قَوْمٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَمَنْ بَعْدَهُمْ فِي التَّمَنْدُلِ بَعْدَ الْوُضُوءِ وَمَنْ كَرِهَهُ إِنَّمَا كَرِهَهُ مِنْ قِبَلِ أَنَّهُ قِيلَ إِنَّ الْوَضُوءَ يُوزَنُ ‏.‏ وَرُوِيَ ذَلِكَ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ وَالزُّهْرِيِّ ‏.‏ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ الرَّازِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِيهِ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُجَاهِدٍ عَنِّي وَهُوَ عِنْدِي ثِقَةٌ عَنْ ثَعْلَبَةَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ إِنَّمَا كُرِهَ الْمِنْدِيلُ بَعْدَ الْوُضُوءِ لأَنَّ الْوَضُوءَ يُوزَنُ ‏.‏
