Summary
The first report in the chapter on wiping the head and the ears. Yahya transmits from Malik from Nafi' that Abdullah ibn Umar took water with two fingers and wiped his ears with them. The editor cites a fuller version in Abd al-Razzaq from Ma'mar from Ayyub from Nafi': Ibn Umar wiped once over the front of his head, then put his two fingers into the water and then into his ears, and turned his thumbs behind his ears. 1
