Bayhaqi 1553 — The woman with istihadah who can distinguish the blood

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ، أنبأ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ، قَالَ مَكْحُولٌ: " النِّسَاءُ لَا يَخْفَى عَلَيْهِنَّ الْحَيْضَةُ أَنَّ دَمَهَا أَسْوَدُ غَلِيظٌ فَإِذَا ذَهَبَ ذَلِكَ وَصَارَتْ صُفْرَةً رُقَيْقَةً فَإِنَّهَا مُسْتَحَاضَةٌ فَلْتَغْتَسِلْ وَلْتُصَلِّ " قَالَ الشَّيْخُ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى: وَقَدْ رُوِيَ مَعْنَى مَا قَالَ مَكْحُولٌ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ مَرْفُوعًا بِإِسْنَادٍ ضَعِيفٍ.
(a) Makhul (may Allah have mercy on him) says: Menstruation is not hidden from women; its blood is thick and deep black. When that goes and it becomes yellowish and thin, then it is prolonged bleeding (istihadah), so she should take a ritual bath and pray.
(b) The Shaykh (may Allah have mercy on him) says that the meaning of what Makhul said is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) as a marfu' narration (attributed to the Prophet), but its chain is weak.
