English translation

1846. Salmān said: "I read in the Tawrah that the blessing for food is in the Wudū' after it. So I mentioned that to the Prophet ﷺ, telling him what I read in the Tawrah. So the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'The food's blessing is in the Wudū' before it and the Wudū' after it.'" (Da'if) He said: There are narrations on this topic from Anas and Abū Hurairah. [Abū 'Eisā said:] We do not know of this Ḥadīth except as a narration of Qais bin Ar-Rabī'. Qais [bin Ar-Rabī'] was graded weak in Ḥadīth. Abū Hāshim Ar-Rumānī's (a narrator in the chain) name is Yahya bin Dīnār.

١٨٤٦ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌يَحْيَى بْنُ مُوسَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌قَيْسُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ (ح) وَحَدَّثَنَا ‌قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ الْكَرِيمِ الْجُرْجَانِيُّ ، عَنْ ‌قَيْسِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ الْمَعْنَى وَاحِدٌ عَنْ ‌أَبِي هَاشِمٍ -يَعْنِي الرُّمَّانِيَّ- عَنْ ‌زَاذَانَ ، عَنْ ‌سَلْمَانَ قَالَ: «قَرَأْتُ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ أَنَّ بَرَكَةَ الطَّعَامِ الْوُضُوءُ بَعْدَهُ، فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِمَا قَرَأْتُ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: بَرَكَةُ الطَّعَامِ الْوُضُوءُ قَبْلَهُ» وَالْوُضُوءُ بَعْدَهُ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ أَنَسٍ، وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ. لَا نَعْرِفُ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ قَيْسِ بْنِ الرَّبِيعِ، وَقَيْسُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ يُضَعَّفُ فِي الْحَدِيثِ. وَأَبُو هَاشِمٍ الرُّمَّانِيُّ اسْمُهُ: يَحْيَى بْنُ دِينَارٍ.

Commentary

The term Wudū has been used here its literal meaning of washing the hands and mouth in connection with eating. This external etiquette when observed for eating also bears the internal fruit of Barakah (Allāh's blessings).
