Narrated `Aun bin Abi Juhaifa: that he had heard his father saying, Allah's Apostle came to us at midday and water was brought for his ablution.

Narrated Anas Ibn Malik: Whenever the Prophet went for answering the call of nature, I and another boy used to go after him with a staff, a stick or a short spear (or stick) and a tumbler of water and when he finished from answering the call of nature we would hand that tumbler of water to him.
