[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , when he wanted to sleep while in a state of sexual impurity, he would perform ablution for prayer before sleeping. Aisha said, "And when he wanted to eat or drink, he would wash his hands and then eat and drink, if he wished to do so." It has been said in this narration that there is something different, and the hadith of Al-Aswad from Aisha is considered more authentic.
