حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا هَمَّامٌ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، قَالَ: أَخَذَ ابْنُ سِيرِينَ غُسْلَهُ عَنْ أُمِّ عَطِيَّةَ، قَالَتْ: " غَسَّلْنَا ابْنَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَمَرَنَا أَنْ نَغْسِلَهَا بِالسِّدْرِ ثَلَاثًا، فَإِنْ أَنْجَتْ وَإِلَّا فَخَمْسًا، فَإِنْ أَنْجَتْ وَإِلَّا فَأَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ "، قَالَتْ: " فَرَأَيْنَا أَنَّ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ سَبْعٌ " (١)،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Umm Atiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) that we were washing the daughter of the Prophet (peace be upon him), Zainab. The Prophet (peace be upon him) came to us and said, "Wash her three or five or more times, but in odd numbers. If you think it appropriate, add lotus leaves to the water." We considered seven to be appropriate.
