حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ وَيَعْقُوبُ بْنُ کَعْبٍ الْأَنْطَاکِيُّ لَفْظُهُ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ حَرِيزِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مَيْسَرَةَ عَنْ الْمِقْدَامِ بْنِ مَعْدِي کَرِبَ قَالَ رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَوَضَّأَ فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ مَسْحَ رَأْسِهِ وَضَعَ کَفَّيْهِ عَلَی مُقَدَّمِ رَأْسِهِ فَأَمَرَّهُمَا حَتَّی بَلَغَ الْقَفَا ثُمَّ رَدَّهُمَا إِلَی الْمَکَانِ الَّذِي بَدَأَ مِنْهُ قَالَ مَحْمُودٌ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي حَرِيزٌ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 122
Al-Miqdam bin Madikarib reported: I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ perform ablution. When he reached the stage of wiping his head, he placed his palms on the front of the head. Then he moved them until he reached the nape. He then returned them to the place from where he had started.
