Musnad Abi Ya'la 4494 — When the people differed about the manner
حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَبَّادٍ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، أَنَّهَا قَالَتِ : اخْتَلَفُوا فِي غَسْلِ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَأُلْقِيَ عَلَيْهُمُ النَّوْمُ ، فَمَا مِنْهُمْ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا وَذَقْنُهُ فِي صَدْرِهِ ، فَنُودُوا مِنْ نَاحِيَةِ الْبَيْتِ : أَنِ اغْسِلُوهُ مِنْ وَرَاءِ قَمِيصِهِ ، قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ : لَوِ اسْتَقْبَلْتُ مِنْ أَمْرِي مَا اسْتَدْبَرْتُ ، مَا غَسَّلَ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - إِلَّا نِسَاؤُهُ .
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that "When the people differed about the manner of washing the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), sleep was cast upon them, until there was not one of them but that his chin was bowed onto his chest. Then a call came from one side of the house: 'Wash him (peace and blessings be upon him) over his shirt.'" Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "Had I known beforehand of my affair what I came to know afterwards, none would have washed the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) except his wives."
