حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ الْفَارِسِيُّ ، نا أَبُو زُرْعَةَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ ، قَالَ : رَأَيْتُ أَحْمَدَ بْنَ حَنْبَلٍ يُنْكِرُ حَدِيثَ الْجَلْدِ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ هَذَا ، وَسَمِعْتُ أَحْمَدَ بْنَ حَنْبَلٍ ، يَقُولُ : لَوْ كَانَ هَذَا صَحِيحًا لَمْ يَقُلِ ابْنُ سِيرِينَ : اسْتُحِيضَتْ أُمُّ وَلَدٍ لأَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ فَأَرْسَلُونِي أَسْأَلُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ، رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ.
Shaykh Abu Zur’ah Dimashqi says: I saw Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal. He did not accept this narration of Jald bin Ayyub. I heard Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal saying that he said: "If this narration is considered authentic, then Ibn Sirin would not have said this." The slave woman (umm walad) of Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik suffered from istihada (non-menstrual bleeding), so they sent me to Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) so that I could ask him about this issue.
