A woman asked the Prophet (Hadith 456). Narrated `Aisha:
A woman asked the Prophet (ﷺ) about the periods: How to take a bath after the periods. He said, “Take a perfumed piece of cloth and clean yourself with it.” She said,’ “How shall I clean myself with it, O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)?” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Clean yourself” She said again, “How shall I clean myself, O Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ)?” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Clean yourself with it.” Then I knew what Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) meant. So I pulled her aside and explained it to her.
