النص العربي

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 اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ "

فَدَعَتْ بِإِنَاءٍ نَحْوًا مِنْ صَاعٍ ، فَاغْتَسَلَتْ وَأَفَاضَتْ عَلَى رَأْسِهَا وَبَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَهَا حِجَابٌ

" ، قَالَ أَبُو عَبْد اللَّهِ : قَالَ يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، وَبَهْزٌ ، وَالْجُدِّيُّ ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ : قَدْرِ صَاعٍ .
