وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «اخْتَتَنَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ النَّبِيُّ وَهُوَ ابْنُ ثَمَانِينَ سَنَةً بِالْقَدُومِ» . مُتَّفق عَلَيْهِ

Abu Huraira reported God's messenger as saying, "Abraham the prophet circumcised himself with an axe[*] when he was eighty years old." *The Arabic is bil-qadum which has the meaning above. Another reading is bil-qaddum which is said to mean at al-Qaddum' (a village in Syria); but this version with the doubled letter is not considered correct. (Bukhari and Muslim.)
Reported by Al-Bukhari (No. 3356 ), Muslim (No. 2370 ) and Ahmad (No. 9040 ). Cited in Mishkat al-Masabih (No. 5703).
