Jami at-TirmidhiHadith Number 26
حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْحُلْوَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عِيَاضٍ، عَنْ أَبِي ثِفَالٍ الْمُرِّيِّ، عَنْ رَبَاحِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ بْنِ حُوَيْطِبٍ، عَنْ جَدَّتِهِ بِنْتِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهَا، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم مِثْلَهُ .

Summary of Jami at-Tirmidhi Hadith 26
This narration repeats the same meaning as the previous report about tasmiyah before wudu. It states that Rabah bin Abdur-Rahman narrated it from his grandmother, the daughter of Saeed bin Zaid, from her father, from the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم. Since the text says the same, the core teaching remains the same: wudu should be connected with mentioning Allah’s name. This hadith about Bismillah before wudu is brief, but it supports the chapter’s focus on starting purification with remembrance. The value of the narration is in its simple link: before washing for prayer, a believer should remember the One for whom the worship is being prepared.
What we learn from this hadith
- The narration supports the meaning of mentioning Allah’s name before wudu.
- It presents wudu as an act tied to remembrance, not a dry routine.
- The short wording keeps the focus on the same teaching.
- The chain mentions the report through the grandmother of Rabah bin Abdur-Rahman.
