حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ أَبِي بُكَيْرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ شَيْبَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ كَانَتْ إِحْدَانَا إِذَا أَصَابَتْهَا جَنَابَةٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَخَذَتْ ثَلَاثَ حَفَنَاتٍ هَكَذَا تَعْنِي بِكَفَّيْهَا جَمِيعًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَتَصُبُّ عَلَى رَأْسِهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَخَذَتْ بِيَدٍ وَاحِدَةٍ فَصَبَّتْهَا عَلَى هَذَا الشِّقِّ وَالْأُخْرَى عَلَى الشِّقِّ الْآخَرِ .
