Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، عَنْ مُقَاتِلِ بْنِ حَيَّانَ، عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ، قَالَ رَأَيْتُ جَرِيرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ تَوَضَّأَ وَمَسَحَ عَلَى خُفَّيْهِ قَالَ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ فِي ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم تَوَضَّأَ فَمَسَحَ عَلَى خُفَّيْهِ ‏ .‏ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ أَقَبْلَ الْمَائِدَةِ أَمْ بَعْدَ الْمَائِدَةِ قَالَ مَا أَسْلَمْتُ إِلاَّ بَعْدَ الْمَائِدَةِ ‏.‏

Qutaybah told us: Khalid ibn Ziyad told us, from Muqatil ibn Hayyan, from Shahr ibn Hawshab, who said: I saw Jarir ibn Abdullah perform ablution and wipe over his leather socks. I asked him about this, and he said: I saw the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, perform ablution and wipe over his leather socks. I asked him whether this was before or after Surat al-Maidah was revealed. He replied: I accepted Islam only after Surat al-Maidah was revealed.
