“The Prophet ﷺ came out to pray and said the Takbir, then he gestured to them to wait. He went and took a bath, and his head was dripping with water while he led them in prayer. When he finished he said: ‘I came out to you in a state of sexual impurity, and I forgot until I had started to pray.’”  

خَرَجَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَى الصَّلاَةِ وَكَبَّرَ ثُمَّ أَشَارَ إِلَيْهِمْ فَمَكَثُوا ثُمَّ انْطَلَقَ فَاغْتَسَلَ وَكَانَ رَأْسُهُ يَقْطُرُ مَاءً فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ إِنِّي خَرَجْتُ إِلَيْكُمْ جُنُبًا وَإِنِّي نَسِيتُ حَتَّى قُمْتُ فِي الصَّلاَةِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ performed the opening takbeer for prayer, then gestured to them, indicating their positions. He entered and then exited, with his head dripping. He prayed with them, and when he finished the prayer, he said, "Indeed I am a human being, and I was in a state of ritual impurity."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ اسْتَفْتَحَ الصَّلَاةَ فَكَبَّرَ ثُمَّ أَوْمَأَ إِلَيْهِمْ أَنْ مَكَانَكُمْ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ فَخَرَجَ وَرَأْسُهُ يَقْطُرُ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ فَلَمَّا قَضَى الصَّلَاةَ قَالَ إِنَّمَا أَنَا بَشَرٌ وَإِنِّي كُنْتُ جُنُبًا  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to the prayer, and when he said the takbir, he turned away and gestured to them that they should do the same, then he went out with his head dripping water and prayed with them. When he finished, he said, "Indeed, I was in a state of sexual impurity and I forgot to perform ablution."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ جَاءَ إِلَى الصَّلَاةِ فَلَمَّا كَبَّرَ انْصَرَفَ وَأَوْمَأَ إِلَيْهِمْ أَنْ كَمَا أَنْتُمْ ثُمَّ خَرَجَ وَرَأْسُهُ يَقْطُرُ فَصَلَّى بِهِمْ فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ قَالَ إِنِّي كُنْتُ جُنُبًا فَنَسِيتُ أَنْ أَغْتَسِلَ
