[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ washed there, so she brought him a towel, and he threw it. Al-A'mash said, so I mentioned it to Ibrahim, and he said, the narration is like this, and there is no harm in wiping with a towel, as it is a customary practice.  

البيهقي:٨٧٥حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ فُورَكٍ أنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ثنا يُونُسُ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ عَنْ كُرَيْبٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ اغْتَسَلَ عِنْدَهَا فَأَتَتْهُ بِمِنْدِيلٍ فَرَمَى بِهِ فَقَالَ الْأَعْمَشُ فَذَكَرْتُهُ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ فَقَالَ الْحَدِيثُ هَكَذَا وَلَا بَأْسَ بِالْمَسْحِ بِالْمِنْدِيلِ إِنَّمَا هُوَ عَادَةٌ  

رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ أَبِي عَوَانَةَ بِمَعْنَاهُ دُونَ قَوْلِ الْأَعْمَشِ لِإِبْرَاهِيمَ
