Hadith 312

312 - حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ قَالَ: ثنا سُفْيَانُ قَالَ: ثنا مَنْبُوذٌ الْمَكِّيُّ، عَنْ أُمِّهِ قَالَتْ: كُنَّا عِنْدَ مَيْمُونَةَ فَدَخَلَ عَلَيْهَا ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فَقَالَتْ: أَيْ بُنَيَّ مَالِي أَرَاكَ شَعِثًا رَأْسُكَ؟ قَالَ: إِنَّ مُرَجِّلَتِي أُمَّ عَمَّارٍ حَايِضٌ فَقَالَتْ: أَيْ بُنَيَّ وَأَيْنَ الْحَيْضَةُ مِنَ الْيَدَيْنِ؟ «كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّي اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيَضَعُ رَأْسَهُ فِي حِجْرِ إِحْدَانَا وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ ثُمَّ يَتْلُو الْقُرْآنَ، وَإِنْ كَانَتْ إِحْدَانَا لَتَقُومُ إِلَيْهِ بِخُمْرَتِهِ فَتَبْسُطُهَا لَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ فَيُصَلِّي عَلَيْهَا» أَيْ بُنَيَّ ‍‍‍‍‍‍فَأَيْنَ الْحَيْضَةُ مِنَ الْيَدِ؟

Manbud Makki narrates from his mother: We were present with Sayyida Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her), when Sayyiduna Abdullah ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) came to her. Sayyida Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: My son! What is the reason that I see your hair is disheveled? So Sayyiduna Abdullah ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) replied: The one who arranges my hair, Umm Ammar, is in the state of menstruation. Sayyida Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: O my son! What does menstruation have to do with the hands? The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would place his blessed head in the lap of one of us (wives) while she was in the state of menstruation, and the woman would be in that state, yet the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would recite (Qur'an). And one of us would take her sheet and spread it for the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), even though she was in the state of menstruation, yet the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would perform prayer on that sheet. O my son! What does menstruation have to do with the hand?
