Al-Lu'lu Wal-MarjanHadith Number 141
حديث أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ: إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِنَّ أُمَّتِي يُدْعَوْنَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ غُرًّا مُحَجَّلِينَ مِنْ آثَارٍ الْوُضُوءِ، فَمَنِ اسْتَطَاعَ مِنْكُمْ أَنْ يُطِيلَ غُرَّتَهُ فَلْيَفْعَلْ.
Nu`am Al-Mujmir Narrated from:
Once I went up the roof of the mosque, (along with) Abû Huraira رضى الله عنه. (He performed ablution and) said, “I heard the Prophet ﷺ saying, ‘On the Day of Resurrection, my followers will be called Al-Ghurr-ul-Muhajjalûn from the traces of ablution, and whoever can increase the area of his radiance [1] should do so (i.e. by performing ablution in the most perfect manner).’” ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 138, Vol. 1)
[1] The Prophet ﷺ did not increase the area that what is washed of the body-parts while doing the ablution as Allâh ordered to be washed, in the Qur’ân.
