حَدَّثَنَا
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ، حَدَّثَنَا
إِسْرَائِيلُ، عَنْ
إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُهَاجِرٍ، عَنْ
صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ شَيْبَةَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ، عَنْ
عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا، قَالَتْ: سَأَلَتْ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ الْأَنْصَارِ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ الْحَيْضِ ؟، قَالَ:
"خُذِي مَاءَكِ وَسِدْرَكِ، ثُمَّ اغْتَسِلِي وَأَنْقِي، ثُمَّ صُبِّي عَلَى رَأْسِكِ حَتَّى تَبْلُغِي شُؤُونَ الرَّأْسِ، ثُمَّ خُذِي فِرْصَةً مُمَسَّكَةً"، قَالَتْ: كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ بِهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ فَسَكَتَ، قَالَتْ: فَكَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ؟ فَسَكَتَ، فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: خُذِي فِرْصَةً مُمَسَّكَةً فَتَتَبَّعِي بِهَا آثَارَ الدَّمِ، وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ"يَسْمَعُ، فَمَا أَنْكَرَ عَلَيْهَا".
Umm al-Mu’minin Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: An Ansari woman asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about the ritual bath after menstruation. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Take water with lotus leaves, clean the place of blood thoroughly, then pour water over your head so that it reaches the roots of the hair (perform the bath in this way), then take a piece of cotton with musk applied to it and apply it.” She asked: O Messenger of Allah! How should I apply the cotton? He remained silent. She again asked: How should I apply the cotton? He again remained silent, so Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) whispered to her: Take a piece of cotton with musk applied to it and apply it to the place of blood. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) heard this and did not object.
