Hadith 325
وَيُذْكَرُ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ، وَشُرَيْحٍ ، إِنِ امْرَأَةٌ جَاءَتْ بِبَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ بِطَانَةِ أَهْلِهَا مِمَّنْ يُرْضَى دِينُهُ أَنَّهَا حَاضَتْ ثَلَاثًا فِي شَهْرٍ صُدِّقَتْ ، وَقَالَ عَطَاءٌ : أَقْرَاؤُهَا مَا كَانَتْ ، وَبِهِ قَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ : وَقَالَ عَطَاءٌ : الْحَيْضُ يَوْمٌ إِلَى خَمْسَ عَشْرَةَ ، وَقَالَ مُعْتَمِرٌ : عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ سِيرِينَ ، عَنِ الْمَرْأَةِ تَرَى الدَّمَ بَعْدَ قُرْئِهَا بِخَمْسَةِ أَيَّامٍ ، قَالَ : النِّسَاءُ أَعْلَمُ بِذَلِكَ .
And it is narrated from Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and Qadi Shurayh that if a woman’s family member, who is religious, testifies that this woman menstruates three times in a month, then his testimony will be accepted. And Ata bin Abi Rabah said that the days of a woman’s menstruation will be accepted as many as they used to be before (according to her previous habit), i.e., before divorce and so on. Ibrahim Nakha’i has also said the same. And Ata said that the minimum duration of menstruation is one day and the maximum is fifteen days. Mu’tamir narrates from his father Sulaiman that he asked Ibn Sirin about a woman who, after five days of menstruation according to her habit, sees blood again, so he replied: “Women know more about this.”
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ ابْنُ أَبِي رَجَاءٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ هِشَامَ بْنَ عُرْوَةَ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ أَبِي حُبَيْشٍ سَأَلَتِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَتْ : إِنِّي أُسْتَحَاضُ فَلَا أَطْهُرُ أَفَأَدَعُ الصَّلَاةَ ؟ فَقَالَ : " لَا ، إِنَّ ذَلِكِ عِرْقٌ ، وَلَكِنْ دَعِي الصَّلَاةَ قَدْرَ الْأَيَّامِ الَّتِي كُنْتِ تَحِيضِينَ فِيهَا ، ثُمَّ اغْتَسِلِي وَصَلِّي " .
Narrated `Aisha: Fatima bint Abi Hubaish asked the Prophet, "I got persistent bleeding (in between the periods) and do not become clean. Shall I give up prayers?" He replied, "No, this is from a blood vessel. Give up the prayers only for the days on which you usually get the menses and then take a bath and offer your prayers."
لِقَوْلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى ‏{‏وَلاَ يَحِلُّ لَهُنَّ أَنْ يَكْتُمْنَ مَا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ فِي أَرْحَامِهِنَّ‏}‏‏.‏
Because Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, has said (in Surah Al-Baqarah) that it is not lawful for them to conceal what Allah has created in their wombs. (Therefore, just as this statement is to be accepted, likewise their statement regarding menstruation will also be accepted.)
