Sunan Abi Dawud: Book 1, Hadith 326

This is also transmitted by Ibn ‘Abd al-Rahman b. Abza on the authority of his father from ‘Ammar. He reported the Prophet (ﷺ) as saying: It would have been enough for you to strike the ground with you hands and then wipe them your face and your hands (up to the wrists). He then narrated the rest of the tradition. Abu Dawud said: This is also transmitted by Shu’bah from Husain on the authority of Abu Malik. He said: I heard ‘Ammar saying so him his speech, except that in this version he added the words: “He blew.” And Husain b. Muhammad narrated from Shu’bah on the authority of al-Hakam and in this version added the words:”He (the Prophet) struck the earth with his plans and blew.”

حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنِي الْحَكَمُ، عَنْ ذَرٍّ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبْزَى، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَمَّارٍ، فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ قَالَ فَقَالَ يَعْنِي النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏
“‏ إِنَّمَا كَانَ يَكْفِيكَ أَنْ تَضْرِبَ بِيَدَيْكَ إِلَى الأَرْضِ فَتَمْسَحَ بِهِمَا وَجْهَكَ وَكَفَّيْكَ ‏”‏ ‏.‏ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَرَوَاهُ شُعْبَةُ عَنْ حُصَيْنٍ عَنْ أَبِي مَالِكٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَمَّارًا يَخْطُبُ بِمِثْلِهِ إِلاَّ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَمْ يَنْفُخْ ‏.‏ وَذَكَرَ حُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ شُعْبَةَ عَنِ الْحَكَمِ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ قَالَ ضَرَبَ بِكَفَّيْهِ إِلَى الأَرْضِ وَنَفَخَ ‏.‏

Sunan Abi Dawud: Book 1, Hadith 326

 
Sunan Abi Dawud is one of the six major hadith collections in Sunni Islam, compiled by the Islamic scholar Abu Dawud al-Sijistani (817–889 CE). It is a comprehensive collection of sayings, actions, and approvals of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) that covers various aspects of Islamic jurisprudence, ethics, and social conduct. The collection contains over 4,800 hadiths, arranged into books that focus on topics such as prayer, purification, fasting, zakat (charity), marriage, and justice. While it is considered highly authoritative, Sunan Abi Dawud includes a critical methodology in selecting hadiths, prioritizing those that are authentic and reliable.
