Hadith 14113

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سَعْدٍ ، عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مِقْسَمٍ ، قَالَ : سَأَلَ الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى ، عَنِ الْغُسْلِ مِنَ الْجَنَابَة ؟ فَقَالَ : تَبُلُّ الشَّعْرَ ، وَتَغْسِلُ الْبَشَرَةَ ، قَالَ : فَكَيْفَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَغْتَسِلُ ، قَالَ : " كَانَ يَصُبُّ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ ثَلَاثًا ، قَالَ : إِنَّ رَأْسِي كَثِيرُ الشَّعْرِ ، قَالَ : كَانَ رَأْسُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ رَأْسِكَ وَأَطْيَبَ " .
Once, Hasan bin Muhammad asked Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) about the ritual bath (ghusl) after major impurity: He replied that soak the hair thoroughly and wash the body. He asked, "How did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) perform ghusl?" He replied that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would pour water over his head three times. He said, "My hair is very long." Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) replied that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had more hair on his blessed head than you in terms of quantity, and in terms of fragrance, his was the best.
