عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ عَنِ الثَّوْرِيِّ وَغَيْرِهِ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ الْمُهَاجِرِ، عَنْ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتِ شَيْبَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّهَا قَالَتْ:
نِعْمَ النِّسَاءُ نِسَاءُ الْأَنْصَارِ لَمْ يَكُنْ يَمْنَعُهُنَّ الْحَيَاءُ أَنْ يَتَفَقَّهْنَ فِي الدِّينِ، وَأَنْ يَسْأَلْنَ عَنْهُ، وَلَمَّا نَزَلَتْ سُورَةُ النُّورِ شَقَقْنَ حَوَاجِزَ أَوْ حُجَزَ مَنَاطِقِهِنَّ فَاتَّخَذْنَهَا خُمُرًا، وَجَاءَتْ فُلَانَةُ فَقَالَتْ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّ اللهَ لَا يَسْتَحْيِي مِنَ الْحَقِّ، كَيْفَ أَغْتَسِلُ مِنَ الْحَيْضِ ؟ قَالَ: لِتَأْخُذْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ سِدْرَتَهَا وَمَاءَهَا، ثُمَّ لْتَطَّهَّرْ فَلْتُحْسِنِ الطُّهْرَ، ثُمَّ لْتُفِضْ عَلَى رَأْسِهَا وَلْتُلْصِقْ بِشُئُونِ رَأْسِهَا، ثُمَّ لْتُفِضْ عَلَى جَسَدِهَا، ثُمَّ لْتَأْخُذْ فِرْصَةً مُمَسَّكَةً، أَوْ قَرْصَةً - شَكَّ أَبُو بَكْرٍ - فَلْتَطَّهَّرْ بِهَا، يَعْنِي بِالْقَرْصَةِ، الشَّكُّ، وَقَالَ بَعْضُهُمُ: الذَّرِيرَةَ، قَالَتْ: كَيْفَ أَتَطَهَّرُ بِهَا، فَاسْتَحْيَى مِنْهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَاسْتَتَرَ مِنْهَا، وَقَالَ: سُبْحَانَ اللهِ تَطَهَّرِينَ بِهَا قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: فَلَحَمْتُ الَّذِي قَالَ فَأَخَذْتُ بِجَيْبِ دِرْعِهَا، فَقُلْتُ: تَتَبَّعِينَ بِهَا آثَارَ الدَّمِ،
Translation
✧ Excellent are the women of the Ansar; shyness did not prevent them from understanding the religion and asking about it. When Surah al-Nur was revealed, they tore the borders or waistbands of their wrappers and made them into veils. Then so-and-so came and said: O Messenger of Allah, Allah is not shy of the truth; how should I perform ghusl from menstruation? He said: Let one of you take her sidr and water, then purify herself and perform purification well, then pour water over her head and press it firmly into the roots of her head, then pour water over her body, then take a piece of cotton perfumed with musk, or a piece (Abu Bakr was unsure), and purify herself with it, meaning the piece—the uncertainty—and some said the powdered perfume. She said: How should I purify myself with it? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was shy of her and covered himself from her, and said: Glory be to Allah! Purify yourself with it. Aisha said: I understood what he meant, so I took hold of the opening of her garment and said: Follow the traces of blood with it.
