بَابُ مَا يَصْنَعُ مَنْ أَرَادَ الْإِحْرَامَ مِنَ الْغُسْلِ وَالطِّيبِChapter: What One Who Intends Ihram Should Do Regarding Bathing and Perfume
Hadith 4156
اُردوEn
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يُحْرِمَ غَسَلَ رَأْسَهُ بِخَطْمِيٍّ وَأُشْنَانٍ وَدَهَنَهُ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْ زَيْتٍ غَيْرِ كَثِيرٍ
It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) intended to enter into Ihram, he would wash his head with khatmi herb and ushnan grass, and he would also apply some olive oil to his head.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … It is recommended (mustahabb) to perform a ritual bath (ghusl) at the time of assuming the state of ihram, as Sayyiduna Zayd ibn Thabit radi Allahu anhu narrates that the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam withdrew to a separate place in order to assume ihram and performed a ritual bath (ghusl). (Tirmidhi: 830)
