TirmidhiHadith #105: Sahih

حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ بْنِ مُوسَى، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ رَافِعٍ، عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، قَالَتْ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي امْرَأَةٌ أَشُدُّ ضَفْرَ رَأْسِي أَفَأَنْقُضُهُ لِغُسْلِ الْجَنَابَةِ قَالَ ‏"‏ لاَ إِنَّمَا يَكْفِيكِ أَنْ تَحْثِينَ عَلَى رَأْسِكِ ثَلاَثَ حَثَيَاتٍ مِنْ مَاءٍ ثُمَّ تُفِيضِينَ عَلَى سَائِرِ جَسَدِكِ الْمَاءَ فَتَطْهُرِينَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ أَوْ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَإِذَا أَنْتِ قَدْ تَطَهَّرْتِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ أَنَّ الْمَرْأَةَ إِذَا اغْتَسَلَتْ مِنَ الْجَنَابَةِ فَلَمْ تَنْقُضْ شَعْرَهَا أَنَّ ذَلِكَ يُجْزِئُهَا بَعْدَ أَنْ تُفِيضَ الْمَاءَ عَلَى رَأْسِهَا ‏.‏

English Meaning

Umm Salamah narrated :"I said: 'O Messenger of Allah! I am woman with tight braids on my head, should I undo it to perform Ghusl for Janabah?

Or he said: "Then you will be purified
