Chapter: Concerning what a woman sees of yellowish or brownish discharge after becoming pure (of menstruation)
Sunan Ibn Majah 647 — Concerning what a woman sees of yellowish
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ ، أَنْبَأَنَا مَعْمَرٌ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ ، عَنْ أُمِّ عَطِيَّةَ ، قَالَتْ : " لَمْ نَكُنْ نَرَى الصُّفْرَةَ ، وَالْكُدْرَةَ شَيْئًا " .
´It was narrated that Umm 'Atiyyah said:` "We did not think anything of the yellowish or brownish discharge." (Sahih) (Another chain) It was narrated that Umm 'Atiyyah said: "We did not think that the yellowish or brownish discharge counted for anything." Muhammad bin Yahya said: "Wuhaib (who narrated the second version) is the better of them with this according to us."
قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الرَّقَاشِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ حَفْصَةَ ، عَنْ أُمِّ عَطِيَّةَ ، قَالَتْ : " كُنَّا لَا نَعُدُّ الصُّفْرَةَ ، وَالْكُدْرَةَ شَيْئًا " ، قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى : وُهَيْبٌ أَوْلَاهُمَا عِنْدَنَا بِهَذَا .
With this chain also, Umm Atiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) says: (After attaining purity) we did not consider yellowish and brownish discharge to be of any significance 1. Muhammad bin Yahya says: In this regard, from our perspective, Wahib is preferred over both of them.
Explanation & Benefits
Maulana Ataullah Sajid
(1)
The meaning is that, in our view, that was not considered menstruation (hayd). In the first hadith, it is mentioned that this ruling is after purification; if, after yellowish or brownish discharge, red blood appears again, then all of this will be counted as menstruation (hayd).
(2)
Imam Ibn Majah rahimahullah’s teacher, Muhammad bin Yahya rahimahullah, has narrated this hadith through two chains of transmission. In one chain, Ayub narrated this hadith from Ibn Sirin rahimahullah, who heard it from Umm ‘Atiyyah radi Allahu anha, whereas in the other chain, there is the intermediary of Hafsah between Ayub and Umm ‘Atiyyah radi Allahu anha. Muhammad bin Yahya gave preference to the second chain; however, this difference does not affect the authenticity of the hadith, because both Ibn Sirin and Hafsah are trustworthy and reliable.
