Sahih al-Bukhari 5573 (Book 77, Hadith 17)
replied, “Yes” So he got down from his she-camel and went away till he disappeared in the darkness
of the night. Then he came back and I poured water for him from the pot (for the ablution). He washed
his face and hands while he was wearing a woollen cloak (the sleeves of which were narrow), so he
could not take his arms out of it. So he took them out from underneath the cloak. Then he washed his
forearms and passed his wet hands over his head. Then I tried to take off his Khuffs (socks made from
thick fabric or leather), but he said, “Leave them, for I have performed ablution before putting them
on.” And so he passed his wet hands over them.
