Chapter on the Description of Washing the Head and Undoing the Hair During Ghusl
Hadith 883
عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَأَلَهُ عَنْ غَسْلِ الرَّأْسِ، فَقَالَ: يَكْفِيكَ ثَلَاثَ حَفَنَاتٍ أَوْ ثَلَاثَ أَكُفٍّ ثُمَّ جَمَعَ يَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا أَبَا سَعِيدٍ! إِنِّي رَجُلٌ كَثِيرُ الشَّعْرِ، قَالَ: فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ أَكْثَرَ شَعْرًا مِنْكَ وَأَطْيَبَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man asked him about washing the head. He said: Three handfuls are enough for you, then he joined both his hands together and indicated. But that man said: O Abu Sa'id! My hair is very thick. He said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had more hair than you and was purer.
Hadith 884
عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ (بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ) قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ أَنَا وَأَخُو عَائِشَةَ مِنَ الرَّضَاعِ فَسَأَلَهَا أَخُوهَا عَنْ غُسْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَدَعَتْ بِإِنَاءٍ نَحْوًا مِنْ صَاعٍ فَاغْتَسَلَتْ وَأَفْرَغَتْ عَلَى رَأْسِهَا ثَلَاثًا وَبَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَهَا الْحِجَابُ
Abu Salamah bin Abdur Rahman says: I and the foster brother of Lady Aisha (RA) went to Lady Aisha (RA). The foster brother asked her about the bath (ghusl) of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him). So she had a vessel brought equal to a sa’ (a measure), performed ghusl, and poured three handfuls of water over her head, while there was a curtain between us and her.
Hadith 885
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَجُلٌ: كَمْ يَكْفِينِي رَأْسِي فِي الْغُسْلِ مِنَ الْجَنَابَةِ؟ قَالَ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصُبُّ بِيَدِهِ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ ثَلَاثًا، قَالَ: إِنَّ شَعْرِي كَثِيرٌ، قَالَ: كَانَ شَعْرُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَكْثَرَ وَأَطْيَبَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man asked: How much water will be sufficient for my head in the ritual bath of janabah? He replied: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to pour three handfuls over his head. The man said: My hair is a lot. He replied: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) also had a lot of hair, and it was pure as well.
Hadith 886
عَنْ جَمِيعِ بْنِ عُمَيْرِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ قَالَ: دَخَلْتُ مَعَ أُمِّي وَخَالَتِي عَلَى عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا فَسَأَلَتْهَا إِحْدَاهُمَا: كَيْفَ كُنْتُنَّ تَصْنَعْنَ عِنْدَ الْغُسْلِ؟ فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَتَوَضَّأُ وَضُوءَهُ لِلصَّلَاةِ ثُمَّ يُفِيضُ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ وَنَحْنُ نُفِيضُ عَلَى رُؤُوسِنَا خَمْسًا مِنْ أَجْلِ الضَّفْرِ
Jameel bin Umair says: I went to Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) with my mother and maternal aunt. One of them asked her: What did you do at the time of bathing (ghusl)? Lady Aisha said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would perform ablution as for prayer and pour three handfuls of water over his head, but we, because of our braids, would pour five handfuls.
Hadith 887
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: أَجْمَرْتُ رَأْسِي إِجْمَارًا شَدِيدًا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((يَا عَائِشَةُ! أَمَا عَلِمْتِ أَنَّ عَلَى كُلِّ شَعْرَةٍ جَنَابَةً؟))
It is narrated from Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: I had tied my hair very tightly, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Aisha! Do you not know that every hair becomes impure due to janabah!?
Hadith 888
عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: ((مَنْ تَرَكَ مَوْضِعَ شَعْرَةٍ مِنْ جَنَابَةٍ لَمْ يُصِبْهَا مَاءٌ فَعَلَ اللَّهُ بِهِ كَذَا وَكَذَا مِنَ النَّارِ)) قَالَ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: فَمِنْ ثَمَّ عَادَيْتُ شَعْرِي، زَادَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ: كَمَا تَرَوْنَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: Whoever, during the ritual bath of janabah, leaves an area equal to a single hair such that water does not reach it, Allah the Exalted will deal with him with the fire of Hell in such and such a manner. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: This is the reason I have enmity with my hair, as you can see.
Hadith 889
عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! إِنِّي امْرَأَةٌ أَشُدُّ ضَفْرَ رَأْسِي؟ قَالَ: ((يُجْزِيكِ أَنْ تَصُبِّي عَلَيْهِ الْمَاءَ ثَلَاثًا))
It is narrated from the wife of the Messenger, Sayyida Umm Salama (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: I said: O Messenger of Allah! I am a woman who tightly braids her hair. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Then it is sufficient for you to pour water over your head three times.
Hadith 890
عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ: كُنَّا أَزْوَاجَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَخْرُجْنَ مَعَهُ عَلَيْنَا الضِّمَادُ نَغْتَسِلْنَ فِيهِ وَنَعْرَقْنَ لَا يَنْهَانَا عَنْهُ مُحِلَّاتٍ وَلَا مُحَرَّمَاتٍ
Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says: We, the wives of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), used to go out on journeys with him. We would have ointment applied on our heads, and in this state we would perform ghusl (ritual bath), and we would also perspire, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would not forbid us from this. This was our condition both in the state of ihram and without ihram.
Hadith 891
عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ عُمَيْرٍ قَالَ: بَلَغَ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو يَأْمُرُ النِّسَاءَ إِذَا اغْتَسَلْنَ أَنْ يَنْقُضْنَ رُؤُوسَهُنَّ، فَقَالَتْ: يَا عَجَبًا لِابْنِ عَمْرٍو، هُوَ يَأْمُرُ النِّسَاءَ إِذَا اغْتَسَلْنَ أَنْ يَنْقُضْنَ رُؤُوسَهُنَّ، أَعَفَلَا يَأْمُرُهُنَّ أَنْ يَحْلِقْنَ، لَقَدْ كُنْتُ أَنَا وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَغْتَسِلُ مِنْ إِنَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ فَمَا أَزِيدُ عَلَى أَنْ أُفْرِغَ عَلَى رَأْسِي ثَلَاثَ إِفْرَاغَاتٍ
Ubaidah bin Umair says: When Sayyidah Aisha (RA) heard that Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (RA) instructs women to undo their hair while performing ghusl, she said: "I am greatly surprised at Ibn Amr; he instructs women to undo their hair while performing ghusl. Why does he not instruct them to shave their heads as well? The matter is that I and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to perform ghusl together from a single vessel, and I would pour water over my head only three times."
