ذِكْرُ مَا يُسْتَحَبُّ لِلْمَرْءِ إِذَا بَالَ بِاللَّيْلِ وَأَرَادَ النَّوْمَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَقُومَ لِوِرْدِهِ أَنْ يَغْسِلَ وَجْهَهُ وَكَفَّيْهِ بَعْدَ الِاسْتِنْجَاءِ

ibnhibban:1445al-Ḥasan b. Sufyān

[Machine] He said, "I stayed at my Aunt Maymuna's house and I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stand up, perform ablution, and then he slept."  

ابن حبّان:١٤٤٥أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ مُوسَى خَتٌّ وَكَانَ كَخَيْرِ الرِّجَالِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ كُرَيْبًا يُحَدِّثُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ

أَنَّهُ قَالَ «بِتُّ عِنْدَ خَالَتِي مَيْمُونَةَ فَرَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَامَ فَبَالَ ثُمَّ غَسَلَ وَجْهَهُ ثُمَّ نَامَ»
