Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ حُيَيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْحُبُلِيِّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَرَّ بِسَعْدٍ وَهُوَ يَتَوَضَّأُ فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا السَّرَفُ يَا سَعْدُ قَالَ أَفِي الْوُضُوءِ سَرَفٌ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَإِنْ كُنْتَ عَلَى نَهْرٍ جَارٍ.
English Translation
Qutaybah ibn Sa'id told us: Ibn Lahi'ah told us, from Huyayy ibn Abdullah, from Abu Abd al-Rahman al-Hubuli, from Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-As, that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, passed by Sa'd while he was performing ablution, and said: What is this excess, O Sa'd? He said: Is there excess even in ablution? He said: Yes, even if you were beside a flowing river.
