Maymunah said, "I prepared a bath for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and screened him from view. He poured water over his hand and washed it once or twice."Sulayman said, "I do not recall whether she mentioned a third time or not."She continued, "Then he poured water with his right hand onto his left and washed his private parts. Then he rubbed his hand on the ground or on the wall. Then he rinsed his mouth, sniffed water into his nose, and washed his face." She said, "And he washed his head, then poured water over the rest of his body. Then he stepped aside and washed his feet."She said, "I handed him a cloth, but he gestured with his hand like this," indicating that he did not want it.Sulayman said, "I mentioned this to Ibrahim, and he said, 'That is how it was,' and he did not object to it."Ibrahim said, "There is no harm in using a towel. It is simply a matter of habit."
حدثنا عفان حدثنا أبو عوانة عن سليمان الأعمش عن سالم بن أبي الجعد عن كريب مولى ابن عباس عن ابن عباس
وضعت لرسول الله ﷺ غسلا وسترته فصب على يده فغسلها مرة أو مرتين قال سليمان فلا أدري أذكر الثالثة أم لا قال ثم أفرغ بيمينه على شماله فغسل فرجه ثم دلك يده بالأرض أو بالحائط ثم مضمض واستنشق وغسل وجهه قال وغسل رأسه ثم صب على جسده ثم تنحى فغسل قدميه قالت فناولته خرقة قال فقال هكذا وأشار بيده أن لا أريدها قال سليمان فذكرت ذلك لإبراهيم فقال هو كذلك ولم ينكره وقال إبراهيم لا بأس بالمنديل إنما هي عادة
