  in سنن ابن ماجه, p. 1426

  يشبه أن يكون الخبران أي خبر الأسود بذكر الوضوء قبل النوم على جنابة وحديث أبي إسحاق بأنه لم يمس ماء صحيحين لأن عائشة قالت ربما قدم الغسل وربما أخره

  machine translationIt seems that both reports could be authentic (ṣaḥīḥ): the report of al-Aswad mentioning ablution before sleeping while in a state of janābah, and the hadith of Abū Isḥāq saying that he did not touch water, because ʿĀʾishah said: Sometimes he would bring the bathing forward and sometimes he would delay it.
