حَدَّثَنَا
عَفَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا
وُهَيْبٌ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
أَيُّوبُ ، عَنْ
سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ ، عَنْ
أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ , أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ اسْتُحِيضَتْ ، وَكَانَتْ تَغْتَسِلُ فِي مِرْكَنٍ لَهَا ، فَتَخْرُجُ وَهِيَ عَالِيَةُ الصُّفْرَةِ وَالْكُدْرَةِ ، فَاسْتَفْتَتْ لَهَا أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ :
" تَنْتَظِرُ أَيَّامَ قُرْئِهَا أَوْ أَيَّامَ حَيْضِهَا فَتَدَعُ فِيهِ الصَّلَاةَ ، وَتَغْتَسِلُ فِيمَا سِوَى ذَلِكَ ، وَتَسْتَثْفِرُ بِثَوْبٍ ، وَتُصَلِّي " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) that Fatimah bint Abi Hubaysh used to have continuous bleeding (istihada). When she would bathe in her tub and come out, there would be a predominance of yellowness and muddiness on its surface. Hazrat Umm Salamah asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about its ruling. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said that she should wait for as many days and nights as she used to face impurity previously, and estimate those days in the month, and leave the prayer for that many days. After that, she should bathe, tie a cloth, and start praying.
