Umm al-Mu'mineen Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her) says that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) performed ghusl after janabah, he would wash both his hands and perform wudu as he would for prayer, then he would perform ghusl, running his fingers through his hair with his hand until he was sure that the skin was wet, then he would pour water over it three times, then wash the rest of his body.

Narrated Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him): (Once) the Iqamah for prayer was pronounced and the rows were straightened. Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) came to us, and when he stood at his place for leading the prayer, he remembered that he was in a state of Janabah (impurity). He said to us: "Stay in your places." Then he returned, performed Ghusl (ritual bath), and then came back to us while water was dripping from his head. Then he pronounced the Takbir (opening Takbir), and we all prayed with him.

Narrated Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that he said: "The Children of Israel used to bathe naked, looking at each other, but Musa (Moses, peace be upon him) used to bathe alone. So the Children of Israel said, 'By Allah! Nothing prevents Musa (peace be upon him) from bathing with us except that he is suffering from a hernia (a kind of male disease).' By chance, one day Musa (peace be upon him) went to bathe and placed his clothes on a stone. The stone ran away with his clothes, and Musa (peace be upon him) chased after it, saying, 'O stone! Give me my clothes, O stone! Give me my clothes.' Until the Children of Israel saw Musa (peace be upon him) and said, 'By Allah! Musa (peace be upon him) has no disease.' (The stone stopped), Musa (peace be upon him) took his clothes and began to beat the stone." Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "By Allah! There are still six or seven marks on that stone from (Musa's) beating."

Narrated Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that he said: "While Ayub (peace be upon him) was bathing naked, golden locusts began to fall upon him, so Ayub (peace be upon him) started collecting them in his garment. Then his Lord called out to him: O Ayub (peace be upon him)! Did I not make you independent of (the need for) what you see? He said: Yes, by Your Majesty (You have made me independent), but I am not indifferent to Your blessings."

Lady Umm Hani bint Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with her) says: I went to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in the year of the conquest (of Makkah), and I found him taking a bath, and Lady Fatimah al-Zahra (may Allah be pleased with her) was screening him. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Who is this?" I replied, "I am Umm Hani."

Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) met him in one of the streets of Madinah, and Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) was in a state of janabah. (He says:) So I slipped away from him and went to perform ghusl. Then I came back, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "O Abu Hurairah! Where did you go?" Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I was in a state of janabah and I disliked sitting with you in a state of impurity. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Subhan Allah! A believer is never impure."

Narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) that Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), "Can any of us sleep while in a state of major ritual impurity (janabah)?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "Yes! When any of you is in a state of janabah, he should perform ablution (wudu) and then sleep."

Narrated by Sayyiduna Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) that he (peace be upon him) said: "When a man sits between the four corners of his wife and then strives with her (for intercourse), then indeed ghusl becomes obligatory."
