Muwatta Malik #67
Purity
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ
" اسْتَقِيمُوا وَلَنْ تُحْصُوا وَاعْمَلُوا وَخَيْرُ أَعْمَالِكُمُ الصَّلاَةُ وَلاَ يُحَافِظُ عَلَى الْوُضُوءِ إِلاَّ مُؤْمِنٌ " .
Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said,
"Try to go straight, although you will not be able to do so. Act, and
the best of your actions is the prayer. And only a mumin is constant
in his wudu."
