134. It was narrated from Shahr bin Hawshab, from Abū Umāmah, and he mentioned the Wudū of the Prophet ﷺ and said: “The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would wipe the inner corner of his eyes.” And he said: “The two ears are (considered) a part of the head.” (Hasan) (Abū Dāwūd said:) Sulaimān bin Ḥarb (one of the narrators) said: “It (the last statement) was said by Abū Umāmah, whereas Hammād said: “I don’t know whether it (last) is a saying of Abū Umāmah or the Prophet ﷺ.” — Meaning the part about the ears.

Commentary

The corners of eye-sockets, partly covered by layers of skin, should be rubbed over to prevent them from remaining dry.
