Arabic text

251 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي شُعْبَةُ ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ حَفْصٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا سَلَمَةَ، يَقُولُ: دَخَلْتُ أَنَا وَأَخُو عَائِشَةَ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ، فَسَأَلَهَا أَخُوهَا عَنْ غُسْلِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «فَدَعَتْ بِإِنَاءٍ نَحْوًا مِنْ صَاعٍ، فَاغْتَسَلَتْ، وَأَفَاضَتْ عَلَى رَأْسِهَا، وَبَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَهَا حِجَابٌ» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ: قَالَ يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، وَبَهْزٌ، وَالجُدِّيُّ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، «قَدْرِ صَاعٍ»
