«ثم يدخل أصابعه في الماء فيخلل بها أصول شعره، ثم يصب على رأسه ثلاث غرفات بيديه، ثم يفيض الماء على جلده كله»
A verbatim excerpt of the text, forty words at most; the full text is in the edition cited under sources
Summary
The first hadith in the chapter on the procedure for the ritual bath after sexual impurity. Yahya transmits from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa from his father from Aisha, the mother of the believers: when the Prophet ﷺ bathed from sexual impurity, he began by washing his hands, then performed ablution as for prayer, then put his fingers into the water and combed the roots of his hair with them, then poured three handfuls of water on his head, and then poured water over his whole skin. The editor cites al-Bukhari, al-Nasa'i, Ibn Hibban, al-Shafi'i and al-Bayhaqi, and refers to al-Tamhid. 1 2
