Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ عَنْ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ فَقَالَتْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُصْبِحُ جُنُبًا ثُمَّ يَغْتَسِلُ ثُمَّ يَغْدُو إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ وَرَأْسُهُ يَقْطُرُ ثُمَّ يَصُومُ ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمَ فَأَخْبَرْتُ مَرْوَانَ بْنَ الْحَكَمِ بِقَوْلِهَا فَقَالَ لِي أَخْبِرْ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ بِقَوْلِ عَائِشَةَ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّهُ لِي صَدِيقٌ فَأُحِبُّ أَنْ تُعْفِيَنِي فَقَالَ عَزَمْتُ عَلَيْكَ لَمَا انْطَلَقْتَ إِلَيْهِ فَانْطَلَقْتُ أَنَا وَهُوَ إِلَى أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ بِقَوْلِهَا فَقَالَ عَائِشَةُ إِذَنْ أَعْلَمُ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.
English Translation
Muhammad bin Ja'far told us, saying Shu'bah told us, from al-Hakam, from Abu Bakr bin Abd al-Rahman, from his father, who said: I entered upon Aisha, and she said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, would wake in a state of major impurity, then perform a full ritual bath, then go out to the mosque with his head dripping, then fast that day. I told this to Marwan bin al-Hakam, and he said to me: Tell Abu Hurayrah what Aisha said. I said: He is a friend of mine, so I would prefer you excuse me from that. He said: I insist that you go to him. So I went, along with him, to Abu Hurayrah, and told him what she had said, and he said: Aisha knows better about the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him.
