أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبِيدَةُ عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ کُرَيْبٍ عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ قَالَتْ وَضَعْتُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَائً قَالَتْ فَسَتَرْتُهُ فَذَکَرَتْ الْغُسْلَ قَالَتْ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ بِخِرْقَةٍ فَلَمْ يُرِدْهَا
سنن نسائی · Hadith 410
It was narrated that Maimunah said: “I put some water out for the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم then I concealed him” — and she mentioned how he performed Ghusl, then she said: “Then I brought him a cloth (a towel) but he did not want it.” (Sahih)
