It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that among the Jews, when a woman would menstruate, they would neither eat nor drink with her, and would send her out of the room; she could not even stay in the house with the people. When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked about this, Allah Almighty revealed this verse: «وَيَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الْمَحِيضِ قُلْ هُوَ أَذًى» [2-البقرة:222] "They ask you about menstruation. Say: It is a harm (impurity)." Therefore, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded (the Muslims) to eat and drink with them, to stay in the house with them, and to do everything with them except intercourse. (When the Jews heard of this) they said: This man (Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him) wants to oppose us in everything. (Upon hearing this) Sayyiduna ‘Abbad bin Bishr and Sayyiduna Usayd bin Hudayr (may Allah be pleased with them both) came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: The Jews say such and such, so should we not have intercourse with menstruating women? (Upon hearing this) the color of the Messenger of Allah’s (peace and blessings be upon him) face changed intensely; we thought he was angry with them. We both got up and left. Meanwhile, a gift of milk arrived, so the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent for them (when they returned) and gave them milk to drink. Thus, we realized that he was not angry with them.
