حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا قَيْسٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي هَاشِمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ زَاذَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ سَلْمَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قَرَأْتُ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ:‏‏‏‏ أَنَّ بَرَكَةَ الطَّعَامِ الْوُضُوءُ قَبْلَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَذَكَرْتُ ذَلِكَ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ:‏‏‏‏ بَرَكَةُ الطَّعَامِ الْوُضُوءُ قَبْلَهُ وَالْوُضُوءُ بَعْدَهُ ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَكَانَ سُفْيَانُ يَكْرَهُ الْوُضُوءَ قَبْلَ الطَّعَامِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد:‏‏‏‏ وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ.

I read in the Torah that the blessing of food consists in ablution before it. So I mentioned it to the Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم. He said: The blessing of food consists in ablution before it and ablution after it. Sufyan disapproved of performing ablution before taking food. Abu Dawud said: It is weak.
