فَأَمَّا مَا رَوَاهُ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ اَلْحَسَنِ اَلصَّفَّارُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ اَلْمُنَبِّهِ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عُلْوَانَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ آبَائِهِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« جَلَسْتُ أَتَوَضَّأُ وَأَقْبَلَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ حِينَ اِبْتَدَأْتُ فِي اَلْوُضُوءِ فَقَالَ لِي« تَمَضْمَضْ وَاِسْتَنْشِقْ وَاِسْتَنَّ» ثُمَّ غَسَلْتُ وَجْهِي ثَلاَثاً فَقَالَ« قَدْ يُجْزِيكَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ اَلْمَرَّتَانِ» »قَالَ« فَغَسَلْتُ ذِرَاعَيَّ وَ مَسَحْتُ بِرَأْسِي مَرَّتَيْنِ فَقَالَ« قَدْ يُجْزِيكَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ اَلْمَرَّةُ وَ غَسَلْتُ قَدَمَيَّ» فَقَالَ لِي« يَا عَلِيُّ خَلِّلْ مَا بَيْنَ اَلْأَصَابِعِ لاَ تُخَلَّلْ بِالنَّارِ»».

Translation

As for the narration reported by Muhammad ibn al-Hasan al-Ṣaffar, from Abdullah ibn al-Munabbih, from al-Husayn ibn ʿUlwan, from Amr ibn Khalid, from Zayd ibn Ali, from his forefathers, from Imam Ali (a.s), who said: Imam (a.s) said: "I once sat down to perform Wuduʾ, and the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family) approached as I began. He (saws) said to me: ‘Rinse your mouth, inhale water into your nose, and clean your teeth.’ Then I washed my face three times, and He (saws) said: ‘Two times would suffice.’ I washed my arms and wiped my head twice, and He (saws) said: ‘One time would suffice.’ Then I washed my feet, and He (saws) said to me: ‘O Ali, interlace your fingers between your toes so they will not be interlaced with fire.’"
