Sahih al-Bukhari 288 (Book 5, Hadith 40) #287
Ablution Before Sleeping While Junub

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) would perform ablution before sleeping while in a state of ritual impurity.

Narrated 'Aisha: Whenever the Prophet intended to sleep while he was Junub, he used to wash his private parts and perform ablution like that for the prayer.
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَنَامَ وَهْوَ جُنُبٌ، غَسَلَ فَرْجَهُ، وَتَوَضَّأَ لِلصَّلاَةِ‏.‏

QUICK LESSONS:
Perform an ablution before sleeping while being junub
EXPLANATIONS:
The hadith narrated by 'Aisha explains that whenever the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ was in a state of ritual impurity known as Janaba, he would perform an ablution known as Wudu before going to sleep. This is similar to the ablutions performed for prayer but with some additional steps. This hadith teaches us that even when we are not performing any religious duties or rituals, we should still strive to maintain cleanliness and purity in our lives. It also shows us the importance of following the Sunnah of the Prophet ﷺ and striving to emulate his example in all aspects of life.
