حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النُّفَيْلِيُّ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ أَبِي حُبَيْشٍ جَائَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَتْ إِنِّي امْرَأَةٌ أُسْتَحَاضُ فَلَا أَطْهُرُ أَفَأَدَعُ الصَّلَاةَ قَالَ إِنَّمَا ذَلِکَ عِرْقٌ وَلَيْسَتْ بِالْحَيْضَةِ فَإِذَا أَقْبَلَتْ الْحَيْضَةُ فَدَعِي الصَّلَاةَ وَإِذَا أَدْبَرَتْ فَاغْسِلِي عَنْکِ الدَّمَ ثُمَّ صَلِّي

Urwah reported on the authority of Aishah: Fatimah daughter of Abu Hubaish came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and said: I am a woman who has prolonged flow of blood; I am never purified ; should I abandon prayer ? He replied: This is (due to) a vein, and not menstruation. When the menstruation begins, you should abandon prayer ; when it is finished, you should wash away the blood and pray.

إِنِّي امْرَأَةٌ أُسْتَحَاضُ فَلَا أَطْهُرُ أَفَأَدَعُ الصَّلَاةَ ← عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ أَبِي حُبَيْشٍ جَائَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ← عُرْوَةَ ← هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ، ← زُهَيْرٍ ← أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النُّفَيْلِيُّ

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ الْقَعْنَبِيُّ عَنْ مَالِکٍ عَنْ هِشَامٍ بِإِسْنَادِ زُهَيْرٍ وَمَعْنَاهُ وَقَالَ فَإِذَا أَقْبَلَتْ الْحَيْضَةُ فَاتْرُکِي الصَّلَاةَ فَإِذَا ذَهَبَ قَدْرُهَا فَاغْسِلِي الدَّمَ عَنْکِ وَصَلِّي

This tradition has also been transmitted by Zuhair through a different chain of narrators, to the same effect. He said: When the menstruation begins, you should abandon prayer; when the period equal to its length of time passes, you should wash away the blood and pray.

هِشَامٍ بِإِسْنَادِ زُهَيْرٍ وَمَعْنَاهُ ← مَالِكٍ، ← عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ الْقَعْنَبِيُّ

حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَی بْنُ إِسْمَعِيلَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَقِيلٍ عَنْ بُهَيَّةَ قَالَتْ سَمِعْتُ امْرَأَةً تَسْأَلُ عَائِشَةَ عَنْ امْرَأَةٍ فَسَدَ حَيْضُهَا وَأُهْرِيقَتْ دَمًا فَأَمَرَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ آمُرَهَا فَلْتَنْظُرْ قَدْرَ مَا کَانَتْ تَحِيضُ فِي کُلِّ شَهْرٍ وَحَيْضُهَا مُسْتَقِيمٌ فَلْتَعْتَدَّ بِقَدْرِ ذَلِکَ مِنْ الْأَيَّامِ ثُمَّ لِتَدَعْ الصَّلَاةَ فِيهِنَّ أَوْ بِقَدْرِهِنَّ ثُمَّ لِتَغْتَسِلْ ثُمَّ لِتَسْتَثْفِرْ بِثَوْبٍ ثُمَّ لِتُصَلِّ

Narrated Aishah, Ummul Muminin: Bahiyyah said: I heard a woman asking Aishah about the woman whose menses became abnormal and she had an issue of blood. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked me to advise her that she should consider the period during which she used to menstruate every month, when her menstruation was normal. Then she should count the days equal to the length of time (of her normal menses); then she should abandon prayer during those days or equal to that period. She should then take a bath, tie a cloth on her private parts a pray.

Aishah said: Umm Habibah, daughter of Jahsh and sister-in-law of Messenger of Allah ﷺm and wife of Abdur-Rahman bin Awf, had a prolonged flow of blood for seven years. She inquired from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: This is not menstruation, but this (due to) a vein. Therefore, wash yourself and pray. Abu Dawud said: In this tradition which is transmitted by al-Zuhri from Urwah and Urwah on the authority of Aishah, al-Awzai added: She (Aishah) said: Umm Habibah daughter of Jahsh and wife of Abdur-Rahman bin Awf had a prolonged flow of blood for seven years. The Prophet ﷺ commander her saying: When the menstruation begins, abandon prayer; when it is finished, take a bath and pray. Abu Dawud said: None of the disciple of al-Zuhri mentioned these words except al-Awzai, from al-Zuhri it has been narrated by Amr bin al-Harith, al-Laith, Yunus, Ibn Abi Dhi'b, Mamar, Ibrahim bin Saad, Sulaiman bin Kathir, Ibn Ishaq and Sufyan bin Uyainah, they did not narrate these words. Abu Dawud said: These are the words of the version reported by Hisham bin Urwah from this father on the authority of Aishah. Abu Dawud said: In this tradition Ibn Uyainah also added the words: He commander her to abandon prayer during her menstrual period. This is a misunderstanding on the part of Ibn Uyainah. The version of this tradition narrated by Muhammad bin Amr from al-Zuhri has the addition similar to that made by al-Awzai in his version.

Narrated Fatimah daughter of Abu Hubaysh: Urwah ibn az-Zubayr reported from Fatimah daughter of Abu Hubaysh that her blood kept flowing, so the Prophet ﷺ said to her: When the blood of the menses comes, it is black blood which can be recognised; so when that comes, refrain from prayer; but when a different type of blood comes, perform ablution and pray, for it is (due only to) a vein. Abu Dawud said: Ibn al-Muthanna narrates this tradition from his book on the authority of Ibn Adi in a similar way. Later on he transmitted it to us from his memory: Muhammad bin Amr reported to us from al-Zuhri from Urwah on the authority of Aishah who said: Fatimah used to have her blood flowing. He then reported the tradition conveying the same meaning. Abu Dawud said: Anas bin Sirin reported from Ibn Abbas about the woman who has a prolonged flow of blood. He said: If she sees thick blood, she should not pray; if she finds herself purified even for a moment, she should was an pray. Makhul said: Menses are not hidden from women. Their blood is black and thick. When it (blackness and thickness) goes away and there appears yellowness and liquidness, that is the flow of blood (from vein). She should wash and pray. Abu Dawud said: This tradition has been transmitted by Saeed bin al-Musayyab through a different chain of narrators, saying: The woman who has a prolonged flow of blood should abandon prayer when the menstruation begins; when it is finished, she should wash and pray. Sumayy and others have also reported it from Saeed bin al-Musayyab. This version adds: She should refrain (from prayer) during her menstrual period. Hammad bin Salamah has reported it similarly from Yahya bin Saeed on the authority of Saeed bin al-Musayyab. Abu Dawud said: Yunus has reported from Al-Hasan: When the bleeding of a menstruating woman extends (beyond the normal period), she should refrain (from prayer), after her menses are over, for one or two days. Now she becomes the woman who has a prolonged flow of blood. Al-Taimi reported from Qatadah: If her menstrual period is prolonged by five days, she should pray. Al-Taimi said: I kept on reducing (the number of days) until I reached two days. He said: If the period extends by two days, they will be counted from the menstrual period. When Ibn Sirin was questioned about it, he said: Women have better knowledge of that.

Narrated Hamnah daughter of Jahsh: Hamnah said my menstruation was great in quantity and severe. So I came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ for a decision and told him. I found him in the house of my sister, Zaynab, daughter of Jahsh. I said: Messenger of Allah, I am a woman who menstruates in great quantity and it is severe, so what do you think about it? It has prevented me from praying and fasting. He said: I suggest that you should use cotton, for it absorbs the blood. She replied: It is too copious for that. He said: Then take a cloth. She replied: It is too copious for that, for my blood keeps flowing. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: I shall give you two commands; whichever of them you follow, that will be sufficient for you without the other, but you know best whether you are strong enough to follow both of them. He added: This is a stroke of the Devil, so observe your menses for six or seven days, Allah alone knows which it should be; then wash. And when you see that you are purified and quite clean, pray during twenty-three or twenty-four days and nights and fast, for that will be enough for you, and do so every month, just as women menstruate and are purified at the time of their menstruation and their purification. But if you are strong enough to delay the noon (Zuhr) prayer and advance the afternoon (Asr) prayer, to wash, and then combine the noon and the afternoon prayer; to delay the sunset prayer and advance the night prayer, to wash, and then combine the two prayers, do so: and to wash at dawn, do so: and fast if you are able to do so if possible. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: Of the two commands this is more to my liking. 1 Abu Dawud said: Amr bin Thabit narrated from Ibn Aqil: Hamnah said: Of the two commands this is the one which is more to my liking. 2 In this version these words were not quoted as the statement of the Prophet ﷺ; it gives it as a statement of Hamnah. Abu Dawud said: Amr bin Thabit was a Rafidi. This has been said by Yahya bin Main. Abu Dawud said: I heard Ahmad (b. Hanbal) say: I am doubtful about the tradition transmitted by Ibn Aqil.

Aishah, wife of Prophet ﷺ, said: Umm Habibah, daughter of Jahsh, sister-in-law of Messenger of Allah ﷺ and wife of Abdur-Rahman bin Awf, had a flow of blood for seven years. She asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: This is not menstruation but only vein; so you should take a bath and pray. Aishah said: She used to take bath in a wash-tub in the apartment of her sister Zainab daughter of Jahsh ; the redness of (her) blood dominated the water.

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَنْبَسَةُ حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ أَخْبَرَتْنِي عَمْرَةُ بِنْتُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أُمِّ حَبِيبَةَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا فَکَانَتْ تَغْتَسِلُ لِکُلِّ صَلَاةٍ

This tradition has been transmitted through a different chain of narrators. According to this version. Aishah said: She would wash herself for every prayer.

عَائِشَةُ فَکَانَتْ تَغْتَسِلُ لِکُلِّ صَلَاةٍ ← أُمِّ حَبِيبَةَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ ← ابْنِ شِهَابٍ أَخْبَرَتْنِي عَمْرَةُ بِنْتُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ ← يُونُسَ ← عَنْبَسَةَ ← أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ،

حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ بِهَذَا الْحَدِيثِ قَالَ فِيهِ فَکَانَتْ تَغْتَسِلُ لِکُلِّ صَلَاةٍ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد رَوَاهُ الْقَاسِمُ بْنُ مَبْرُورٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عَمْرَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ عَنْ أُمِّ حَبِيبَةَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ وَکَذَلِکَ رَوَاهُ مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عَمْرَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ مَعْمَرٌ عَنْ عَمْرَةَ عَنْ أُمِّ حَبِيبَةَ بِمَعْنَاهُ وَکَذَلِکَ رَوَاهُ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ وَابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عَمْرَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ وَقَالَ ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ فِي حَدِيثِهِ وَلَمْ يَقُلْ إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَمَرَهَا أَنْ تَغْتَسِلَ

This has been narrated though a different chain of narrators by Aishah. This version has the words: "She used to take a bath for every prayer. " Abu Dawud said: Al-Qasim bin Mabrur reported from Yunus from Ibn Shihab from Amrah from Aishah from Umm Habibah daughter of Jahsh. Similarly, it was reported by Mamar from al-Zuhri from Amrah from Aishah. Mamar sometimes reported from Amrah on the authority of Umm Habibah to the same effect. Similarly, it was reported by Ibrahim bin Saad and Ibn Uyainah from al-Zuhri from Amrah from Aishah. Ibn Uyainah said in his version: He (al-Zuhri) did not say that the Prophet ﷺ commanded her to take bath. It has also been transmitted by al-Awzai in a similar way. In this version he said: Aishah said: She used to take bath for very prayer.

Aishah said: Umm Habibah had a prolonged flow of blood for seven years. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded her to take bath; so shed used to take bath for every prayer.

Aishah said: Umm Habibah had a prolonged flow of blood during the time of Messenger of Allah ﷺ. He commanded her to take bath for every prayer. The narrator then transmitted the tradition (in full). Abu Dawud said: It has also been narrated by Abu al-Walid al-Tayalisi, but I did not hear him. He reported it from Aishah through a different chain of narrators. Aishah said: Zainab daughter of Jahsh had a prolonged flow of blood. The Prophet ﷺ said to her: Take bath for every prayer. The narrator then reported the tradition (in full). Abu Dawud said: The version transmitted by Abd al-Samad from Sulaiman bin Kathir has: "Perform ablution for every prayer. " This is a misunderstanding on the part of Abd al-Samad. The correct version is the one narrated by Abu al-Walid.

عَائِشَةَ ← عُرْوَةَ ← الزُّهْرِيِّ، ← ابْنِ إِسْحَقَ ← عَبْدَةُ ← هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ

Narrated Zaynab daughter of Abu Salamah: Abu Salamah said: Zaynab daughter of Abu Salamah reported to me that a woman had a copious flow of blood. She was the wife of Abdur Rahman ibn Awf. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded her to take a bath at the time of every prayer, and then to pray. He reported to me that Umm Bakr told him that Aishah said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said about a woman who was doubtful of her menstruation after purification that it was a vein or veins. Abu Dawud said: The two commands (of which the Prophet gave option) were as follows in the version reported by Ibn Aqil: He said: If you are strong enough, then take a bath for every prayer; otherwise combine the (two prayers), as al-Qasim reported in his version. This statement was also narrated by Saeed bin Jubair from Ali and Ibn Abbas.
