116. Abū Ḥayyah said: "I saw 'Alī performing Wudū..." and he narrated all of the (actions of) Wudū as (having been repeated) thrice, then said: "...then he wiped his head, then washed his feet until the ankles. He (meaning, 'Alī) then said: 'I wished to show you the purification of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ.''" (Saḥīh)
116 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، وَأَبُو تَوْبَةَ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ، ح وحَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَوْنٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْأَحْوَصِ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَيَّةَ، قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ عَلِيًّا رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ «تَوَضَّأَ فَذَكَرَ وُضُوءَهُ كُلَّهُ ثَلَاثًا ثَلَاثًا»، قَالَ: «ثُمَّ مَسَحَ رَأْسَهُ، ثُمَّ غَسَلَ رِجْلَيْهِ إِلَى الْكَعْبَيْنِ»، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «إِنَّمَا أَحْبَبْتُ أَنْ أُرِيَكُمْ طُهُورَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ»

[1] Copies of this text differ on the wording here, as do various compilers who narrated it from the same route of transmission. Imām Aḥmad narrated it from the same route (1:109; no. 873), but with a shorter chain. His narration makes the meaning clear, solving the disagreements among the commentaries, and it has been translated accordingly.
