حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النَّاقِدُ ، وَابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ جَمِيعًا ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ ، قَالَ عَمْرٌو ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ ، عَنْ مَنْصُورِ ابْنِ صَفِيَّةَ ، عَنْ أُمِّهِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ : " سَأَلَتِ امْرَأَةٌ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، كَيْفَ تَغْتَسِلُ مِنَ حَيْضَتِهَا ؟ قَالَ : فَذَكَرَتْ أَنَّهُ عَلَّمَهَا كَيْفَ تَغْتَسِلُ ، ثُمَّ تَأْخُذُ فِرْصَةً مِنْ مِسْكٍ فَتَطَهَّرُ بِهَا ، قَالَتْ : كَيْفَ أَتَطَهَّرُ بِهَا ؟ قَالَ : تَطَهَّرِي بِهَا سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ ، وَاسْتَتَرَ " ، وَأَشَارَ لَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ بِيَدِهِ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ ، قَالَ : قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ : وَاجْتَذَبْتُهَا إِلَيَّ ، وَعَرَفْتُ مَا أَرَادَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقُلْتُ : تَتَبَّعِي بِهَا أَثَرَ الدَّمِ ، وَقَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ فِي رِوَايَتِهِ : فَقُلْتُ : تَتَبَّعِي بِهَا آثَارَ الدَّمِ ،
'A'isha reported: A woman asked the Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) how to wash herself after menstruation. She mentioned that he taught her how to take bath and then told her to take a piece of cotton with musk and purify herself. She said: How should I purify myself with that? He (the Holy Prophet) said: Praise be to Allah, purify yourself with it, and covered his face, Sufyan bin 'Uyaina gave a demonstration by covering his face (as the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) had done). 'A'isha reported: I dragged her to my side for I had understood what the Apostle of Allah (ﷺ) intended and, therefore, said: Apply this cotton with musk to the trace of blood. Ibn 'Umar in his hadith (has mentioned the words of 'A'isha thus): Apply it to the marks of blood.
