Mawla Um Salamah Na'im, may Allah have mercy on him, says that Sayyida Um Salamah, may Allah be pleased with her, was asked whether a woman can perform ghusl (ritual bath) with her husband. She said: "Yes, but when she is sensible. I have seen myself and the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, that we used to perform ghusl from one tub and would pour water on our hands until we cleaned them, and then would pour water over our bodies."
