Abu Salamah bin Abdur Rahman says: I and the foster brother of Lady Aisha (RA) went to Lady Aisha (RA). The foster brother asked her about the bath (ghusl) of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him). So she had a vessel brought equal to a sa’ (a measure), performed ghusl, and poured three handfuls of water over her head, while there was a curtain between us and her.
