185 صحيح حديث عَائِشَة سَأَلَهَا أَخُوهَا عَنْ غُسْلِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَدَعَتْ بِإِنَاءٍ نَحْوٍ مِنْ صَاعٍ، فَاغْتَسَلَتْ وَأَفَاضَتْ عَلَى رَأْسِهَا؛ وَبَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَهَا حِجَابٌ (قَوْلَ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ)
Abu Muslima (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that the brother of Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), (Sayyiduna Abdur Rahman bin Abi Bakr), asked her about the bathing (ghusl) of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). So she (may Allah be pleased with her) called for a vessel like a sa’ (a specific measure). Then she performed ghusl and poured water over herself, while there was a curtain between us and her.
