English translation
[748] 60 - (332) It was narrated that 'Aishah said: "A woman asked the Prophet ﷺ how she should perform Ghusl following her menses. He told her how to perform Ghusl, then said that she should take a piece of cloth scented with musk and purify herself with it. She said: 'How do I purify myself with it?' He said: 'Purify yourself with it, Subhân-Allâh (Glorious is Allâh)!' and he covered his face" - (One of the narrators) Sufyân bin 'Uyainah showed us how he covered his face with his hands - 'Aishah said: "I pulled her towards me, because I understood what the Prophet ﷺ meant, and I said: 'Follow the traces of blood with it.'"
