أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَنْصُورُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أُمِّهِ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ شَيْبَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً سَأَلَتْ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ کَيْفَ أَغْتَسِلُ عِنْدَ الطُّهُورِ قَالَ خُذِي فِرْصَةً مُمَسَّکَةً فَتَوَضَّئِي بِهَا قَالَتْ کَيْفَ أَتَوَضَّأُ بِهَا قَالَ تَوَضَّئِي بِهَا قَالَتْ کَيْفَ أَتَوَضَّأُ بِهَا قَالَتْ ثُمَّ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَبَّحَ وَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهَا فَفَطِنَتْ عَائِشَةُ لِمَا يُرِيدُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَتْ فَأَخَذْتُهَا وَجَبَذْتُهَا إِلَيَّ فَأَخْبَرْتُهَا بِمَا يُرِيدُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ

سنن نسائی · Hadith 429

It was narrated from ‘Aishah: “A woman asked the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم: ‘Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم, how should I perform Ghusl when I become pure?’ He said: ‘Take a piece of cotton wool scented with musk and clean yourself with it.’ She said: ‘How should I clean myself with it?’ He said: ‘Clean yourself with it.’ She said: ‘How should I clean myself with it?’ The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said: ‘Subhan Allah!’ and turned away from her.” ‘Aishah understood what the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم meant, and said: “So I pulled her toward me and told her what the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم meant.” (Sahih)
