I prepared water for the Prophet ﷺ to wash with after major ritual impurity. He tipped the vessel onto his right hand and washed it two or three times, then poured water onto his private parts and washed them with his left hand. He then struck the ground with his hand and washed it, rinsed his mouth and nose, and washed his face and arms. After that, he poured water over his head and body, then moved aside and washed his feet. I offered him a towel, but he did not take it and began shaking the water off his body.I mentioned this to Ibrahim, and he said, "They saw no harm in using a towel, but they disliked making it a habit."
حدثنا مسدد بن مسرهد حدثنا عبد الله بن داود عن الأعمش عن سالم عن كريب حدثنا ابن عباس
وضعت ﷺ للنبي غسلا يغتسل من الجنابة فأكفأ الإناء على يده اليمنى فغسلها مرتين أو ثلاثا ثم صب على فرجه فغسل فرجه بشماله ثم ضرب بيده الأرض فغسلها ثم تمضمض واستنشق وغسل وجهه ويديه ثم صب على رأسه وجسده ثم تنحى ناحية فغسل رجليه فناولته المنديل فلم يأخذه وجعل ينفض الماء عن جسده فذكرت ذلك لإبراهيم فقال كانوا لا يرون بالمنديل بأسا ولكن كانوا يكرهون العادة
Bukhari narrated it in the chapter on ghusl, section on wudu before ghusl, no. 249, and Muslim in the chapter on menstruation, section on the description of ghusl for janaba, no. 317, from the hadith of Sulayman bin Mihran Amash, through this same chain.
