أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ هُرْمُزَ الْأَعْرَجَ يَقُولُ حَدَّثَنِي نَاعِمٌ مَوْلَی أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا أَنَّ أُمَّ سَلَمَةَ سُئِلَتْ أَتَغْتَسِلُ الْمَرْأَةُ مَعَ الرَّجُلِ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ إِذَا کَانَتْ کَيِّسَةً رَأَيْتُنِي وَرَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَغْتَسِلُ مِنْ مِرْکَنٍ وَاحِدٍ نُفِيضُ عَلَی أَيْدِينَا حَتَّی نُنْقِيَهُمَا ثُمَّ نُفِيضَ عَلَيْهَا الْمَائَ قَالَ الْأَعْرَجُ لَا تَذْکُرُ فَرْجًا وَلَا تَبَالَهُ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 240
‘Abdur-Rahman bin Hurmuz Al-A’raj said: “Na’im the freed slave of Umm Salamah narrated to me that Umm Salamah was asked: ‘Can a woman perform Ghusl with a man?’ She said: ‘Yes, if she is well-mannered. I remember the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم and I performing Ghusl from a single wash tub. We would pour water on our hands until they were clean then pour water over them.” Al-A’raj said: “Not mentioning the private area nor paying attention to it.”(Sahih)
