وَحَدَّثَنِي ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ
هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ
أَبِيهِ ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ :
" لَيْسَ عَلَى الْمُسْتَحَاضَةِ إِلَّا أَنْ تَغْتَسِلَ غُسْلًا وَاحِدًا ثُمَّ تَتَوَضَّأُ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ لِكُلِّ صَلَاةٍ " . ¤ قَالَ يَحْيَى : قَالَ مَالِك : الْأَمْرُ عِنْدَنَا أَنَّ الْمُسْتَحَاضَةَ إِذَا صَلَّتْ أَنَّ لِزَوْجِهَا أَنْ يُصِيبَهَا ، وَكَذَلِكَ النُّفَسَاءُ إِذَا بَلَغَتْ أَقْصَى مَا يُمْسِكُ النِّسَاءَ الدَّمُ ، فَإِنْ رَأَتِ الدَّمَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فَإِنَّهُ يُصِيبُهَا زَوْجُهَا وَإِنَّمَا هِيَ بِمَنْزِلَةِ الْمُسْتَحَاضَةِ . قَالَ يَحْيَى . قَالَ مَالِك : الْأَمْرُ عِنْدَنَا فِي الْمُسْتَحَاضَةِ عَلَى حَدِيثِ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، وَهُوَ أَحَبُّ مَا سَمِعْتُ إِلَيَّ فِي ذَلِكَ
It is narrated from Hazrat Urwah bin Zubair, he said: For a woman experiencing istihada (non-menstrual vaginal bleeding), there is only one ghusl (ritual bath), then she should perform wudu (ablution) for every prayer.
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: According to us, the ruling is that when a woman experiencing istihada is about to pray, her husband is also permitted to have intercourse with her. Similarly, for a woman in nifas (postnatal bleeding), if blood continues until the end of the prescribed period and she sees blood after that as well, her husband may have intercourse with her, and this blood is also considered as istihada.
Imam Malik, may Allah have mercy on him, said: According to us, the ruling for a woman experiencing istihada is in accordance with the hadith of Urwah, which Urwah narrated from Sayyida Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, who narrated from the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, which has already been mentioned at the beginning of the chapter. Of all the narrations I have heard in this chapter, I prefer that narration the most.
