Riyad as-Salihin: Book 8, Hadith 214
‘Aishah (May Allah be pleased with her) reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, “There are ten demands of pure nature: trimming the moustache, letting the beard grow, using Miswak (tooth-stick), snuffing up water into the nose (in ablution), paring the nails, washing the bases of the finger joints; plucking the underarm hair, removing of the pubic hair and removing impurities with water from the affected part after a call of nature.”The subnarrator said: I forgot the tenth but it might possibly be the rinsing of the mouth (in ablution)..
وعن عائشة رضي الله عنها قالت: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم : ”عشر من الفطرة: قص الشارب، وإعفاء اللحية، والسواك، واستنشاق الماء، وقص الأظفار، وغسل البراجم، ونتف الإبط، وحلق العانة، وانتقاص الماء” ((قال الراوي: ونسيت العاشرة إلا أن تكون المضمضة، قال: وكيع- وهو أحد رواته-)) . (25) ((رواه مسلم)).(( (26)
