English translation

249. Āishah narrated concerning the Ghusl of the Prophet ﷺ from Janābah, that he used to wash his hands and perform Wudū', then he would run (his fingers) through his (hair on his) head so that it reaches all of his hair, then he would pour water over his entire body. (Sahih)

Arabic text

248 - أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا يَحْيَى قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي قَالَ: حَدَّثَتْنِي عَائِشَةُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا عَنْ غُسْلِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنَ الْجَنَابَةِ: «أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَغْسِلُ يَدَيْهِ وَيَتَوَضَّأُ، وَيُخَلِّلُ رَأْسَهُ حَتَّى يَصِلَ إِلَى شَعْرِهِ، ثُمَّ يُفْرِغُ عَلَى سَائِرِ جَسَدِهِ»

Commentary

It is essential to realize that one should make a concerted effort to make water get to difficult-to-reach parts of one's body. One should not effectively render a bath futile by allowing parts of one's body to remain dry.
