حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّی الْعَنَزِيُّ حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو عَاصِمٍ عَنْ حَنْظَلَةَ بْنِ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ عَنْ الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ کَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا اغْتَسَلَ مِنْ الْجَنَابَةِ دَعَا بِشَيْئٍ نَحْوَ الْحِلَابِ فَأَخَذَ بِکَفِّهِ بَدَأَ بِشِقِّ رَأْسِهِ الْأَيْمَنِ ثُمَّ الْأَيْسَرِ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِکَفَّيْهِ فَقَالَ بِهِمَا عَلَی رَأْسِهِ
صحیح مسلم · Hadith 725
Ibn Abbas narrated It on the authority of Maimuna that the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) was given a towel, but he did not rub (his body) with it, but he did like this with water, i. e. he shook it off.
