A person in ihram pouring water on his head after major impurity: he should not rub or scratch it

Makhul says that when a person in ihram becomes junub (in a state of major ritual impurity), he should pour water over his head without kneading it with his hand or rubbing it.

Ata says that if a person in ihram takes a ritual bath (ghusl), he should simply pour water over his head and not rub it with his hand.

Al-Hasan saw no harm in a person in ihram taking a bath, but he disliked rubbing the head hard with the hand while bathing.

When Urwah took a bath while in ihram, he would pour water over his head and not rub it with his hand; rather, he would only wipe it lightly (passing his hand gently over it).

Abd al-A'la says: I saw Sa'id bin Jubayr bathing while in ihram; he was pouring water over his head but was not rubbing it with his hand.
