Humran Rahmatullahi 'alaihi, the freed slave of 'Uthman Radiyallahu 'anhu narrates that 'Uthman Ibne-' Affan Radiyallahu 'anhu called for water for Wudu and then performed Wudu. He washed his hands thrice, then he rinsed his mouth and cleaned his nose, then he washed his face thrice. Then he washed his right arm up to (including) the elbow thrice, ,then he washed his left arm likewise, then he wiped his head with wet hands, then he washed his right foot upto (including) the ankle thrice, then he washed the left foot likewise, and then he said: I saw Rasulullah Sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam performing Wudu like this Wudu of mine, and Rasulullah Sallallahu 'alai hi wasallam said: Whoever performs a Wudu similar to my Wudu, then stands and of fers two Rak'at, not thinking of anything else (with complete concentration), all his previous sins are forgiven. Ibne-Shihab Rahmatullahi 'alaihi said our 'Ulama (Islamic scholars) say: This is the most complete Wudu which one performs for Salat. (Muslim)
