Ibn 'Abbas reported that Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) came to privy and I placed for him water for ablution, When he came out he said: Who placed it here? And in a version of Zuhair they (the Companions) said, and in the version of Abu Bakr (the words are): I said: It is Ibn 'Abbas (who has done that), whereupon he (the Prophet) said: May Allaah grant him deep understanding of religion.
