Urdu Translation

شعبہ کہتے ہیں کہ   ابن عباس رضی اللہ عنہما جب غسل جنابت کرتے تو اپنے داہنے ہاتھ سے بائیں ہاتھ پر سات مرتبہ پانی ڈالتے، پھر اپنی شرمگاہ دھوتے، ایک بار وہ بھول گئے کہ کتنی بار پانی ڈالا، تو آپ نے مجھ سے پوچھا کہ میں نے کتنی بار پانی ڈالا؟ میں نے جواب دیا: مجھے یاد نہیں ہے، آپ نے کہا: تیری ماں نہ ہو ۱؎ تمہیں یہ یاد رکھنے میں کون سی چیز مانع ہوئی؟ پھر آپ وضو کرتے جیسے نماز کے لیے وضو کرتے ہیں، پھر اپنے پورے جسم پر پانی بہاتے، پھر کہتے: اسی طرح رسول اللہ صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم طہارت حاصل کرتے تھے۔

English Translation

Shubah reported: when Ibn Abbas took a bath because of sexual defilement, he poured (water) over his left hand with his right hand seven times. Once he forgot how many times he had poured (water). Therefore he asked me: how many times did I pour (water)? I do not know. He said: may you miss your mother! What prevented you from remembering it? He then performed ablution as he did for prayer and poured water over his skin (body). He then said: this is how the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم purified (himself).
