ذِكْرُ الِاسْتِحْبَابِ لِلْمُغْتَسِلِ مِنَ الْجَنَابَةِ أَنْ يَكُونَ غَسْلُ فَرْجِهِ بِشِمَالِهِ دُونَ الْيَمِينِ مِنْهُ

"My maternal aunt Maimunah told me: 'I brought the Messenger of Allah ﷺ water for his Ghusl from Janabah, and he washed his hands two or three times, then he put his right hand in the vessel and poured water over his private part, then he washed it with his left hand. Then he put his left hand on the ground and rubbed it hard. Then he performed Wudu' as for prayer,then poured three scoops with his two hands full of water over his head, then he washed his entire body, then he moved away from where he had been standing and washed his feet.' She said: 'Then I brought him a towel but he refused it.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 253)

I placed water near the Messenger of Allah ﷺ to take a bath because of sexual intercourse. He washed the palms of his bands twice or thrice and then put his hand In the basin and poured water over his private parts and washed them with his left hand. He then struck his hand against the earth and rubbed it with force and then performed ablution for the prayer and then poured three handfuls of water on his head and then washed his whole body after which he moved aside from that place and washed his feet, and then I brought a towel (so that he may wipe his body). but he returned it.

[Machine] Al-Qa'nabi narrated that 'Isa ibn Yunus narrated from Salim ibn Abi al-Ja'd, from Kurayb, from Ibn Abbas who said: My aunt, Maymuna, informed me that she said: I brought the Prophet ﷺ water for his ritual bath (ghusl) after sexual intercourse. He washed his hands two or three times, then he put his hands in the vessel and poured the water over his private parts. He washed his private parts with his left hand, then he struck the ground with his left hand and rubbed it intensely. Then he performed ablution (wudu) for prayer, and poured water over his head three times, until it reached his palms. After that, he washed the rest of his body, then he moved away from where he was standing and washed his feet. Then, I brought him a cloth and he spread it out.
