Chapter 30.0

Repeating ones talk thrice in order to make others understand

باب مَنْ أَعَادَ الْحَدِيثَ ثَلاَثًا لِيُفْهَمَ عَنْهُ

فَقَالَ: «أَلاَ وَقَوْلُ الزُّورِ». فَمَا زَالَ يُكَرِّرُهَا. وَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «هَلْ بَلَّغْتُ». ثَلاَثًا.

‏ وَيْلٌ لِلأَعْقَابِ مِنَ النَّارِ ‏

‏‏.‏ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلاَثًا‏.‏

English translation

Narrated `Abdullah bin `Amr:

Once Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) remained behind us in a journey. He joined us while we were performing ablution for the `Asr prayer which was over-due. We were just passing wet hands over our feet (not washing them properly) so the Prophet (ﷺ) addressed us in a loud voice and said twice or thrice, "Save your heels from the fire."
