Sunan Abu DawudPurification (Kitab Al-Taharah)
Chapter: The Manner of The Prophet's Wudu'
حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، وَهِشَامُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، - الْمَعْنَى - قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ قَالَ وَمَسَحَ بِأُذُنَيْهِ ظَاهِرِهِمَا وَبَاطِنِهِمَا . زَادَ هِشَامٌ وَأَدْخَلَ أَصَابِعَهُ فِي صِمَاخِ أُذُنَيْهِ .
Another version says:
He wiped his ears inside and outside. Hisham adds: He inserted his fingers in the ear-holes.
