Hadith 2059
حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ أَبِي الرِّجَالِ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ : " أَقْسَمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، أَنْ لَا يَدْخُلَ عَلَى نِسَائِهِ شَهْرًا ، فَمَكَثَ تِسْعَةً وَعِشْرِينَ يَوْمًا حَتَّى إِذَا كَانَ مِسَاءَ ثَلَاثِينَ دَخَلَ عَلَيَّ ، فَقُلْتُ : إِنَّكَ أَقْسَمْتَ أَنْ لَا تَدْخُلَ عَلَيْنَا شَهْرًا ، فَقَالَ : " شَهْرٌ هَكَذَا يُرْسِلُ أَصَابِعَهُ فِيهَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ وَشَّهْرُ هَكَذَا وَأَرْسَلَ أَصَابِعَهُ كُلَّهَا ، وَأَمْسَكَ إِصْبَعًا وَاحِدًا فِي الثَّالِثَةِ " .
´It was narrated that 'Aishah said:` "The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) swore that he would not enter upon his wives for a month, and he stayed for twenty-nine days until, on the eve of the thirtieth, he entered upon me. I said: 'You swore not to enter upon us for a month.' He said: 'The month may be like this,' and he held up his (ten) fingers three times; 'or the month may be like this,' and he held up his fingers three times, keeping one finger down on the third time."
