اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ الْعَنْبَرِيُّ ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُهَاجِرٍ ، عَنْ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ شَيْبَةَ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، أَنَّ أَسْمَاءَ سَأَلَتِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، بِمَعْنَاهُ ، قَالَ : فِرْصَةً مُمَسَّكَةً ، قَالَتْ : كَيْفَ أَتَطَهَّرُ بِهَا ؟ قَالَ : سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ ، تَطَهَّرِي بِهَا وَاسْتَتِرِي بِثَوْبٍ ، وَزَادَ : وَسَأَلَتْهُ عَنِ الْغُسْلِ مِنَ الْجَنَابَةِ ، فَقَالَ : تَأْخُذِينَ مَاءَكِ فَتَطَّهَّرِينَ أَحْسَنَ الطُّهُورِ وَأَبْلَغَهُ ، ثُمَّ تَصُبِّينَ عَلَى رَأْسِكِ الْمَاءَ ثُمَّ تَدْلُكِينَهُ حَتَّى يَبْلُغَ شُؤُونَ رَأْسِكِ ، ثُمَّ تُفِيضِينَ عَلَيْكِ الْمَاءَ ، قَالَ : وَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ : نِعْمَ النِّسَاءُ نِسَاءُ الْأَنْصَارِ ، لَمْ يَكُنْ يَمْنَعُهُنَّ الْحَيَاءُ أَنْ يَسْأَلْنَ عَنِ الدِّينِ وَأَنْ يَتَفَقَّهْنَ فِيهِ .
Aishah said: Asma asked the Prophet ﷺ and then narrated the rest of the tradition to the same effect. He (the Prophet) said: "a musk-scented piece of cloth. " She (Asma) said: How should I purify with it ? He said: By glory of Allah! Purify with it, and he covered his face with the cloth. This version also adds: "She asked about the washing because of sexual defilement. " He said: Take your water and purify yourself as best as possible. Then pour water over yourself. Aishah said: The best of the women are the women of the Ansar. Shyness would not prevent them from inquiring about religion and from acquiring deep understanding in it.
Explanation & Benefits

316. Commentary:
➊ The method of ritual bath (ghusl) is the same for both women and men, except that women are permitted not to untie their braided hair during the ritual bath of major impurity (janabah), but in the case of menstruation (hayd), they are instructed to untie it. Similarly, it is recommended (mustahabb) for them to use musk or fragrance at the place of blood.
➋ The use of lote tree water, marsh mallow, soap, or shampoo is also among the permissible things, and it is more virtuous for women.
➌ Whether man or woman, it is obligatory for everyone to inquire or have inquired from the people of knowledge about specific hidden matters. Silence regarding these issues can sometimes lead a person into the unlawful, and it is also obligatory upon the people of knowledge that they should not refrain from explaining the realities in the best language of allusion and indication.
