[Al-Maymūnī:] Ban taɓa ganin wani mutum da ya kiyaye tsaftar tufafinsa kamar Ibn Ḥanbal ba, ko kuma ya kula da gashin kansa, gashin baki da gashin jikinsa sosai, ko kuma wanda tufafinsa suka kasance fari tsaf kamar nasa ba. 37.1

[Al-Maymūnī:] I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone who kept his clothes as clean as Ibn Ḥanbal did, or took such good care of his hair, mustache, and body hair, or anyone whose clothing was as immaculately white as his. 37.1

[Al-Marrūdhī:] Aḥmad bai taɓa zuwa wurin wanka ba. Idan yana buƙatar cire gashin jikinsa, yakan yi hakan a gida. Na shirya masa manna fiye da sau ɗaya. Haka kuma na saya masa safar hannu ta fata. Yakan saka ta, ya cire mannar da kansa.195 37.2

[Al-Marrūdhī:] Aḥmad never went to the bathhouse. When he needed to depilate himself, he did it at home. I prepared the paste for him more than once. I also bought him a leather glove. He would put it on and remove the paste himself.195 37.2

Abū l-ʿAbbās: Na taɓa shirya wa Aḥmad man cire gashi, na fara cire gashinsa. Idan na kai wurin al'aura, sai ya karɓi aikin. 37.3

[Abū l-ʿAbbās:] I once prepared a depilatory paste for Aḥmad and began removing his hair. When I reached the pubic area, he took over. 37.3
