[Machine] My mother used to say, "Go in, and enter," whenever the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would enter to perform ablution. She said, "So I entered and water was poured on my face, then he said, 'Go back.'" Al-Atta' said, my mother said, "So I saw the face of Zaynab (may Allah be pleased with her) after she had become an old lady, and nothing had decreased from her face."
كَانَتْ أُمِّي إِذَا دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَغْتَسِلُ يَقُولُ «اذْهَبِي فَادْخُلِي» قَالَتْ فَدَخَلْتُ فَنَضَحَ فِي وَجْهِيَ الْمَاءَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «ارْجِعِي» قَالَ الْعَطَّافُ قَالَتْ أُمِّي «فَرَأَيْتُ وَجْهَ زَيْنَبَ وَهِيَ عَجُوزٌ كَبِيرَةٌ مَا نَقَصَ مِنْ وَجْهِهَا شَيْءٌ»
