Musnad Abi Ya'la 4410 — Sayyidah Umm Habibah bint Jahsh, who suffered
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ الْعُمَرِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ : جَاءَتْ أُمُّ حَبِيبَةَ بِنْتُ جَحْشٍ ، وَكَانَتِ اسْتُحِيضَتْ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ ، إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَشَكَتْ ذَلِكَ إِلَيْهِ ، وَاسْتَفْتَتْهُ فِيهِ ، فَقَالَ : إِنَّ هَذَا لَيْسَ بِالْحَيْضَةِ ، وَلَكِنْ هَذَا عِرْقٌ ، فَاغْتَسِلِي ، ثُمَّ صَلِّي . قَالَ : فَكَانَتْ تَغْتَسِلُ لِكُلِّ صَلَاةٍ ، وَكَانَتْ تَجْلِسُ فِي الْمِرْكَنِ فَتَعْلُو حُمْرَةُ الدَّمِ الْمَاءَ ، ثُمَّ تُصَلِّي .
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that Sayyidah Umm Habibah bint Jahsh (may Allah be pleased with her), who suffered from istihadah (blood that flows other than menstrual blood) for seven years, came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), complained to him (peace and blessings be upon him) about it and asked for the religious ruling. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This is not menstruation; rather, it is (blood from) a vein. So take a ritual bath (ghusl) and then pray." Al-Zuhri (may Allah have mercy on him) relates that she used to take a ritual bath for every prayer, and when she sat in the tub (for the bath) the redness of the blood would rise over the water; then she would pray.
