[Machine] Narrated Yahya ibn Yamar: I asked Aisha, "Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sleep while he was in a state of sexual impurity?" She replied, "Perhaps he would perform ablution before sleeping, and perhaps he would sleep before performing ablution. However, he would always perform ablution." She added, "All praise is due to Allah who made ease in religion."  

أحمد:٢٥٣٣١ – حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ الْخُرَاسَانِيُّ

عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ يَعْمَرَ قَالَسَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ هَلْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَنَامُ وَهُوَ جُنُبٌ؟ قَالَتْ لِي رُبَّمَا اغْتَسَلَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَنَامَ وَرُبَّمَا نَامَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَغْتَسِلَ وَلَكِنَّهُ كَانَ يَتَوَضَّأُ قَالَ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي جَعَلَ فِي الدِّينِ سَعَةً

I asked 'A'isha about the Witr (prayer) of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and made mention of a hadith, then I said: What did he do after having sexual intercourse? Did he take a bath before going to sleep or did he sleep before taking a bath? She said: He did all these. Some- times he took a bath and then slept, and sometimes he performed ablution only and went to sleep. I (the narrator) said: Praise be to Allah Who has made things easy (for human beings).

"I asked 'Aishah: 'How did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sleep while he was Junub? Did he perform Ghusl before sleeping or sleep before performing Ghusl?' She said: 'He did both. Sometimes he would perform Ghusl then sleep, and sometimes he would perform Wudu' then sleep.'"
