54. ‘Ammār bin Yāsir narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “It is part of the Fiṭrah to wash the mouth with water (Al-Maḍmaḍah), and to cleanse the nose with water (Al-Istinshāq)...” and he mentioned similarly (as no. 53), except that he did not mention the growing of the beard, and added: “...and circumcision,” and he said: “...and sprinkling (water)”[1] and he did not mention “cleansing (Intiqāṣ) with water — meaning performing Istinjā.” Abū Dāwūd said: Similar has been related from Ibn ‘Abbās, who said: “Five matters (of the Fiṭrah) concern the head...” and he mentioned in this narration parting (the hair from the middle), and did not mention growing the beard. Abū Dāwūd said: Similar to Ḥammād's narration (no. 54) has been related from Ṭalq bin Ḥabīb and Muḥājīd, and from Bakr bin ‘Abdullāh Al-Muzanī, as their saying,[2] and they did not mention: "growing the beard." In the narration of Muḥammad bin 'Abdullāh bin Abī Mariam, from Abū Salamah, from Abū Hurairah from the Prophet ﷺ, it contains: "growing the beard." And, similar to it has been related from Ibrāhīm An-Nakha'ī, and he mentioned growing the beard and circumcision.
