Mishkat al-Masabih #388
Purification
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَعَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ جَبَلٍ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا تَوَضَّأَ مسح وَجهه بِطرف ثَوْبه. رَوَاهُ التِّرْمِذِيّ
Mu'adh b. Jabal said that he saw God’s messenger wiping his face with the hem of his garment when he performed ablution.
Tirmidhi transmitted it.
