Ayesha used to marvel at his trustworthiness and would hire him. She showed me how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to perform ablution. She rinsed her mouth and sniffed water into her nose three times, washed her face three times, then washed her right hand three times and her left hand three times. She placed her hand at the front of her head and wiped her head once back to the nape, then ran her hands over her ears, then passed them over her cheeks.Salim said, "I used to come to her while I was a slave under a contract of manumission, and she would not veil herself from me. She would sit before me and converse with me. Then one day I came to her and said, 'Pray for blessing for me, Umm Muiminin.'She asked, 'What is the occasion?'I said, 'Allah has set me free.'She said, 'May Allah bless you,' and she let down the veil between us. I never saw her again after that day."
أخبرنا الحسين بن حريث قال حدثنا الفضل بن موسى عن جعيد بن عبد الرحمن قال أخبرني عبد الملك بن مروان بن الحارث بن أبي ذناب قال
وكانت عائشة تستعجب بأمانته وتستأجره فأرتني كيف كان رسول الله ﷺ يتوضأ فتمضمضت واستنثرت ثلاثا وغسلت وجهها ثلاثا ثم غسلت يدها اليمنى ثلاثا واليسرى ثلاثا ووضعت يدها في مقدم رأسها ثم مسحت رأسها مسحة واحدة إلى مؤخره ثم أمرت يدها بأذنيها ثم مرت على الخدين قال سالم كنت آتيها مكاتبا ما تختفي مني فتجلس بين يدي وتتحدث معي حتى جئتها ذات يوم فقلت ادعي لي بالبركة يا أم المؤمنين قالت وما ذاك قلت أعتقني الله قالت بارك الله لك وأرخت الحجاب دوني فلم أرها بعد ذلك اليوم

Hasan, and it is in Kubra. (104) Abdul-Malik was deemed trustworthy by Ibn Hibban alone, and the hadith has many corroborating narrations found in Abu Dawud, h. (3928), and Ibn Hibban, Mawarid, h. (1214), and others].
