حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرُ بْنُ يَحْيَی بْنِ سَامٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ قَالَ لِي جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَأَتَانِي ابْنُ عَمِّکَ يُعَرِّضُ بِالْحَسَنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَنَفِيَّةِ قَالَ کَيْفَ الْغُسْلُ مِنْ الْجَنَابَةِ فَقُلْتُ کَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَأْخُذُ ثَلَاثَةَ أَکُفٍّ وَيُفِيضُهَا عَلَی رَأْسِهِ ثُمَّ يُفِيضُ عَلَی سَائِرِ جَسَدِهِ فَقَالَ لِي الْحَسَنُ إِنِّي رَجُلٌ کَثِيرُ الشَّعَرِ فَقُلْتُ کَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَکْثَرَ مِنْکَ شَعَرًا
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 256
Narrated Abu Ja`far: Jabir bin `Abdullah said to me, "Your cousin (Hasan bin Muhammad bin Al-Hanafiya) came to me and asked about the bath of Janaba. I replied, 'The Prophet uses to take three handfuls of water, pour them on his head and then pour more water over his body.' Al-Hasan said to me, 'I am a hairy man.' I replied, 'The Prophet had more hair than you'. "
