'Ā’ishah, Mother of the Believers (may Allah be pleased with her), reported some of her private affairs with the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him), including the fact that she used to take a ritual bath from Janābah (major ritual impurity) along with him (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) from one pot as they would take water therefrom together. Whenever he (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) wanted to have intimacy with her during her menses, he would order her to cover her body from the navel to the knee, and he would fondle her without copulation. During his I'tikāf in the mosque, he (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) used to lean his head out to 'Ā’ishah, and she would wash it while she was in her house and during her menses.Benefits
