مَا أَخْبَرَنِي بِهِ اَلشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ أَبِي اَلْقَاسِمِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ وَ بُكَيْرٍ: أَنَّهُمَا سَأَلاَ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ وُضُوءِ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ فَدَعَا بِطَسْتٍ وَ ذَكَرَ اَلْحَدِيثَ إِلَى أَنْ قَالَ فَقُلْنَا أَصْلَحَكَ اَللَّهُ فَالْغُرْفَةُ اَلْوَاحِدَةُ تُجْزِي لِلْوَجْهِ وَ غُرْفَةٌ لِلذِّرَاعِ فَقَالَ« نَعَمْ إِذَا بَالَغْتَ فِيهَا وَ اَلثِّنْتَانِ تَأْتِيَانِ عَلَى ذَلِكَ كُلِّهِ».

Translation

from Muhammad ibn Yaʿqub, from Ali ibn Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abi ʿUmayr, from ʿUmar ibn Udhaynah, from Zurarah and Bukayr: They both asked Abu Jaʿfar (a.s) about the ablution (Wuduʾ) of the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace and blessings be upon him and his family). Imam (a.s) then requested a basin and narrated the description of ablution until he said: We had asked: "May Allah (swt) rectify your affairs, is one handful of water sufficient for the face, and one handful for the arm?" Imam (a.s) replied: "Yes, if you use it thoroughly. Two handfuls are sufficient for all of it."

Translation: Haydar Ali Shaykh ibn Muhammad — published with the edition, reproduced verbatim.
