darimi:775Jaʿfar b. ʿAwn > Hishām b. ʿUrwah from his father > ʿĀʾishah

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to begin by washing his hands, then perform ablution for prayer. He would then dip his hand in water and pass it through the roots of his hair until he believed that his skin had been relieved from impurities. He would pour three handfuls of water over his head and then perform a full body wash. Abu Muhammad said, "This narration from Salim bin Abi Al-Jaad is dearer to me."

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يَبْدَأُ فَيَغْسِلُ يَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ يَتَوَضَّأُ وُضُوءَهُ لِلصَّلَاةِ ثُمَّ يُدْخِلُ كَفَّهُ فِي الْمَاءِ فَيُخَلِّلُ بِهَا أُصُولَ شَعْرِهِ حَتَّى إِذَا خُيِّلَ إِلَيْهِ أَنَّهُ قَدِ اسْتَبْرَأَ الْبَشَرَةَ غَرَفَ بِيَدِهِ ثَلَاثَ غَرَفَاتٍ فَصَبَّهَا عَلَى رَأْسِهِ ثُمَّ اغْتَسَلَ» قَالَ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ هَذَا أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ سَالِمِ بْنِ أَبِي الْجَعْدِ

Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa from his father from A'isha, umm al-muminin, that whenever the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did ghusl for major ritual impurity, he would begin by washing his hands, and then do wudu as for prayer. He would then put his fingers in the water and rub the roots of his hair with them. Then he would pour as much water as two hands can hold on to his head three times, and over the entire surface of his skin.

[Machine] Regarding the washing of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ from janaba (major ritual impurity), she said: He would begin by washing his hands, and then he would wash them. Wiqas would wash his hands three times, then he would perform ablution for prayer. He would then pour water three times over the roots of his hair until he thought that the skin had been rinsed, and then he would pour three handfuls of water over his head and let it flow over the rest of his body. Ibn Numair said: He would fill his hands with water three times.

[Machine] The prophet ﷺ used to perform ablution when he wanted to perform a ritual bath from major impurity. His ablution was for prayer. Then he would put his hand into a container and search through the roots of his hair. When he thought that he had thoroughly reached all of the skin, he would pour water on his head three times. After that, he would perform the ritual bath. Uruwah said, except that he used to start with washing his hands, then his private parts.

[Machine] The Prophet Mohammed ﷺ used to start by washing his hands, then perform ablution for prayer. After that, he would dip his hands into water and run his fingers through his hair roots.
