أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الدُّورِيُّ ثنا أَبُو عَامِرٍ عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الْعَقَدِيُّ ثنا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ، ح. وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ الْقَاضِي ثنا الْحَارِثُ بْنُ أَبِي أُسَامَةَ ثنا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ عَدِيٍّ ثنا عُبَيْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الرَّقِّيُّ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيَمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ عَمِّهِ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ أُمِّهِ حَمْنَةَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ قَالَتْ: كُنْتُ أُسْتَحَاضُ حَيْضَةً كَثِيرَةً شَدِيدَةً فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَسْتَفْتِيهِ وَأُخْبِرُهُ فَوَجَدْتُهُ فِي بَيْتِ أُخْتِي زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي امْرَأَةٍ أُسْتَحَاضُ حَيْضَةً كَثِيرَةً شَدِيدَةً فَمَا تَرَى فِيهَا، قَدْ مَنَعَتْنِي الصَّلَاةَ وَالصَّوْمَ قَالَ: " أَنْعَتُ لَكِ الْكُرْسُفَ فَإِنَّهُ يُذْهِبُ الدَّمَ " قَالَتْ: هُوَ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ قَالَ: " فَاتَّخِذِي ثَوْبًا " قَالَتْ: هُوَ أَكْثَرُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ إِنَّمَا أَثُجُّ ثَجًّا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " سَآمُرُكِ بِأَمْرَيْنِ أَيَّهُمَا فَعَلْتِ أَجْزَأَ عَنْكِ مِنَ الْآخَرِ فَإِنْ قَوِيتِ عَلَيْهِمَا فَأَنْتِ أَعْلَمُ " فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّمَا هَذِهِ رَكْضَةٌ مِنْ رَكَضَاتِ الشَّيْطَانِ فَتَحَيَّضِي سِتَّةَ أَوْ سَبْعَةَ أَيَّامٍ فِي عِلْمِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ثُمَّ اغْتَسِلِي حَتَّى إِذَا رَأَيْتِ أَنَّكِ قَدْ طَهُرْتِ وَاسْتَنْقَأْتِ فَصَلِّي ثَلَاثًا وَعِشْرِينَ لَيْلَةً أَوْ أَرْبَعًا وَعِشْرِينَ لَيْلَةً وَأَيَّامَهَا فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ يُجْزِئُكِ وَكَذَلِكَ فَافْعَلِي كُلَّ شَهْرٍ كَمَا تَحِيضُ النِّسَاءُ وَكَمَا يَطْهُرْنَ مِيقَاتُ حَيْضِهِنَّ وَطُهْرِهِنَّ، وَإِنْ قَوِيتِ عَلَى أَنْ تُؤَخِّرِي الظُّهْرَ وَتُعَجِّلِي الْعَصْرَ فَتَغْتَسِلِينَ فَتَجْمَعِينَ بَيْنَ الصَّلَاتَيْنِ الظُّهْرِ وَالْعَصْرِ وَتُؤَخِّرِينَ الْمَغْرِبَ وَتُعَجِّلِينَ الْعِشَاءَ ثُمَّ تَغْتَسِلِينَ وَتَجْمَعِينَ بَيْنَ الصَّلَاتَيْنِ فَافْعَلِي وَصُومِي إِنْ قَدَرْتِ عَلَى ذَلِكَ " قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " وَهَذَا أَعْجَبُ الْأَمْرَيْنِ إِلِيَّ "..
Sayyidah Hamnah bint Jahsh (may Allah be pleased with her) said: I used to have very heavy istihadah (bleeding outside the menstrual period). I came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) to ask him for a ruling and to inform him of it, and I found him in the house of my sister, Zaynab bint Jahsh (may Allah be pleased with her). I said: O Messenger of Allah, I am a woman with very heavy istihadah; what is your ruling about it? It has kept me from prayer and fasting. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Use cotton, for it absorbs the blood." She said: O Messenger of Allah, it is more than that. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Then bind a cloth." She said: It is even more than that; I flow profusely. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I will order you to do two things; whichever of them you do will suffice you for the other. If you are able to do both, you know best." Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This is only one of the kicks of Satan. Observe menstruation for six or seven days, according to the knowledge of Allah, then perform ghusl; and when you see that you have become thoroughly pure, pray for twenty-three or twenty-four nights and days. That will suffice you. Do likewise every month, just as menstruating women do, and as they become pure at the times of their purity and menstruation. And if you are able to delay Zuhr and hasten Asr, then perform ghusl and combine the two prayers, Zuhr and Asr; and delay Maghrib and hasten Isha, then perform ghusl and combine the two prayers. Do so, and fast, if you are able to do that." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "This is the more pleasing of the two matters to me."
وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الرُّوذْبَارِيُّ، أنا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ دَاسَةَ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ثنا عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، فَذَكَرَهُ بِإِسْنَادِهِ مِثْلَهُ إِلَّا أَنَّهُ زَادَ عِنْدَ قَوْلِهِ: " أَوْ أَرْبَعًا وَعِشْرِينَ لَيْلَةً وَأَيَّامَهَا وَصُومِي " وَزَادَ أَيْضًا: " وَتَغْتَسِلِينَ مَعَ الْفَجْرِ فَافْعَلِي وَصُومِي إِنْ قَدَرْتِ عَلَى ذَلِكَ " قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَرَوَاهُ عَمْرُو بْنُ ثَابِتٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عَقِيلٍ قَالَ: قَالَتْ حَمْنَةُ: فَقُلْتُ: هَذَا أَعْجَبُ الْأَمْرَيْنِ إِلِيَّ لَمْ يَجْعَلْهُ كَلَامُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَجَعَلَهُ كَلَامَ حَمْنَةَ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ: وَعَمْرُو بْنُ ثَابِتٍ هَذَا غَيْرُ مُحْتَجٍّ بِهِ وَبَلَغَنِي عَنْ أَبِي عِيسَى التِّرْمِذِيِّ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ ⦗٥٠١⦘ الْبُخَارِيَّ يَقُولُ: حَدِيثُ حَمْنَةَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ فِي الْمُسْتَحَاضَةِ هُوَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ إِلَّا أَنَّ إِبْرَاهِيَمَ بْنَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ هُوَ قَدِيمٌ لَا أَدْرِي سَمِعَ مِنْهُ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ أَمْ لَا وَكَانَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ يَقُولُ: هُوَ حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ: وَأَمَّا حَمْنَةُ بِنْتُ جَحْشٍ فَقَدْ قَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمَدِينِيِّ: هِيَ أُمُّ حَبِيبَةَ كَانَتْ تُكْنَى بِأُمِّ حَبِيبَةَ وَهِيَ حَمْنَةُ بِنْتُ جَحْشٍ أَخْبَرَنَا بِذَلِكَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الْحَسَنِ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدُوسٍ، ثنا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الدَّارِمِيُّ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عَلِيًّا يَقُولُهُ وَخَالَفَهُ يَحْيَى بْنُ مَعِينٍ فَزَعَمَ أَنَّ الْمُسْتَحَاضَةَ أُمُّ حَبِيبَةَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ تَحْتَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ لَيْسَتْ بِحَمْنَةَ، أَخْبَرَنَا بِذَلِكَ أَبُو مُحَمَّدٍ السُّكَّرِيُّ بِبَغْدَادَ، ثنا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الشَّافِعِيُّ، ثنا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَزْهَرُ، ثنا الْمُفَضَّلُ بْنُ غَسَّانَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ مَعِينٍ فَذَكَرَهُ قَالَ الشَّيْخُ: وَحَدِيثُ ابْنِ عَقِيلٍ يَدُلُّ عَلَى أَنَّهَا غَيْرَ أُمِّ حَبِيبَةَ وَكَانَ ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ رُبَّمَا ⦗٥٠٢⦘ قَالَ فِي حَدِيثِ عَائِشَةَ: حَبِيبَةَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ وَهُوَ خَطَأٌ إِنَّمَا هِيَ أُمُّ حَبِيبَةَ كَذَلِكَ قَالَهُ أَصْحَابُ الزُّهْرِيِّ سَوَاءٌ وَحَدِيثُ ابْنِ عَقِيلٍ يَحْتَمِلُ أَنْ يَكُونَ فِي الْمُعْتَادَةِ إِلَّا أَنَّهَا شَكَّتْ فَأَمَرَهَا إِنْ كَانَ سِتًّا أَنْ يَتْرُكَهَا سِتًّا وَإِنْ كَانَ سَبْعًا أَنْ يَتْرُكَهَا سَبْعًا وَالْمُبْتَدِئَةُ تَرْجِعُ إِلَى أَقَلِّ الْحَيْضِ وَيُحْتَمَلُ أَنْ يَكُونَ فِي الْمُبْتَدِئَةِ تَرْجِعُ إِلَى الْأَغْلَبِ مِنْ حِيَضِ النِّسَاءِ وَاللهُ تَعَالَى أَعْلَمُ وَقَدْ قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى: وَيُذْكَرُ عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ أَبِي رَبَاحٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي الْبِكْرِ يَسْتَمِرُّ بِهَا الدَّمُ: تَقْعُدُ كَمَا تَقْعُدُ نِسَاؤُهَا.
(a) Abd al-Malik bin Amr narrated it with the same chain, except that these words are additional: "Or twenty-four days and their nights, and fast."
(b) And these words are also additional: "Perform ghusl with Fajr; do so, and fast, if you are able to do that."
(c) Imam Abu Dawud said: Amr bin Thabit narrated it from Ibn Aqil, who said: Hamnah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: So I said: This is the more pleasing of the two matters to me. He did not make it the words of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), but the words of Sayyidah Hamnah (may Allah be pleased with her). (d) The Shaykh said: This Amr bin Thabit is not used as proof. It has reached me that Imam al-Tirmidhi (may Allah have mercy on him) heard Imam al-Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him) say that the narration of Sayyidah Hamnah bint Jahsh (may Allah be pleased with her) concerning the woman with istihadah is hasan, except that Ibrahim bin Muhammad bin Talhah is early, and I do not know whether Abdullah bin Muhammad bin Aqil heard from him or not. Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal (may Allah have mercy on him) used to say that this hadith is sahih. (e) The Shaykh said: Concerning Hamnah bint Jahsh (may Allah be pleased with her), Ali bin al-Madini said that she is Umm Habibah; her kunyah was Umm Habibah, and she is Hamnah bint Jahsh (may Allah be pleased with her). (f) Uthman bin Sa'id al-Darimi heard Ali (bin al-Madini) say this. (g) Yahya bin Ma'in differed with him; he held that the woman with istihadah was Umm Habibah bint Jahsh (may Allah be pleased with her), the wife of Abd al-Rahman bin Awf (may Allah be pleased with him), and not Hamnah.
(b) And these words are also additional: "Perform ghusl with Fajr; do so, and fast, if you are able to do that."
