أَخْبَرَنَا
عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سَلَمْ ، بِبَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
حَرْمَلَةُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا
ابْنُ وَهْبٍ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنِي
عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ ، عَنِ
ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، عَنْ
عُرْوَةَ ،
وَعُمْرَةَ ، عَنْ
عَائِشَةَ ، أَنَّ أُمَّ حَبِيبَةَ بِنْتَ جَحْشٍ كَانَتْ تَحْتَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ ، اسْتُحِيضَتْ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ ، فَاسْتَفْتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي ذَلِكَ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ هَذِهِ لَيْسَتْ بِحَيْضَةٍ ، وَلَكِنْ هَذَا عِرْقٌ ، فَاغْتَسِلِي وَصَلِّي " ، قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ : فَكَانَتْ تَغْتَسِلُ عِنْدَ كُلِّ صَلاةٍ فِي مِرْكَنِ حُجْرَةِ أُخْتِهَا زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ حَتَّى يَعْلُوَ حُمْرَةُ الدَّمِ الْمَاءَ .
Sayyida Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: Umm Habibah bint Jahsh was the wife of Sayyiduna Abdur Rahman bin Auf. She suffered from istihada (non-menstrual bleeding) for seven years. She asked the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) about this issue, so the Prophet (peace be upon him) said: This is not menstruation, rather it is blood from another vein. You should perform ghusl and continue to offer prayers. Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates: That woman used to perform ghusl for every prayer. She would sit in a stone tub, and so did her sister Sayyida Zainab bint Jahsh (may Allah be pleased with her), until the redness of the blood would overpower the water.
