أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ مَالِكٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَسْلَمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ حُنَيْنٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِيهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ،‏‏‏‏ وَالْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ مَخْرَمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّهُمَا اخْتَلَفَا بِالأَبْوَاءِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ يَغْسِلُ الْمُحْرِمُ رَأْسَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَالَ الْمِسْوَرُ:‏‏‏‏ لَا يَغْسِلُ رَأْسَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَرْسَلَنِي ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ إِلَى أَبِي أَيُّوبَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَوَجَدْتُهُ يَغْتَسِلُ بَيْنَ قَرْنَيِ الْبِئْرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَهُوَ مُسْتَتِرٌ بِثَوْبٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَيْكَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبَّاسٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَسْأَلُكَ كَيْفَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَغْسِلُ رَأْسَهُ وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ ؟ فَوَضَعَ أَبُو أَيُّوبَ يَدَهُ عَلَى الثَّوْبِ فَطَأْطَأَهُ حَتَّى بَدَا رَأْسُهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ لِإِنْسَانٍ يَصُبُّ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ حَرَّكَ رَأْسَهُ بِيَدَيْهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَأَقْبَلَ بِهِمَا وَأَدْبَرَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقَالَ هَكَذَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَفْعَلُ .

They had a difference of opinion in al-Abwa. Ibn 'Abbas رضی اللہ عنہما said: The Muhrim (Pilgrim in Ihram) may wash his head. Al-Miswar said: He should not wash his head. Ibn 'Abbas رضی اللہ عنہما sent me (the narrator) to Abu Ayyub Al-Ansari رضی اللہ عنہ to ask him about that. I found him performing Ghusl in front of the well, screened with a cloth. I greeted him with Salam and said: Abdullah bin 'Abbas رضی اللہ عنہما has sent me to you to ask you how the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم used to wash his head when he was in Ihram. Abu put his hand on the cloth and lowered it, until his head appeared, then he told someone to pour water on his head. Then he rubbed his head with his hands, back and forth, and said: This is what I saw the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم do.

It was narrated from 'Abdullah bin 'Abbas and Al-Miswar bin Makhramah رضی الله عنہم that
