English translation

132. It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbâs that the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ came out from the toilet and food was brought to him. They said: "Shall we not bring water for Wudû'?" He said: "I have only been commanded to perform Wudû' when I want to pray."

Arabic text

132 - أَخْبَرَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ خَرَجَ مِنَ الْخَلَاءِ، فَقُرِّبَ إِلَيْهِ طَعَامٌ فَقَالُوا: أَلَا نَأْتِيكَ بِوَضُوءٍ؟ فَقَالَ: «إِنَّمَا أُمِرْتُ بِالْوُضُوءِ إِذَا قُمْتُ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ»

Commentary

Ablution is commanded at the time of prayer for someone who is without ablution or this could be termed commendatory order.
