أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبِ بْنِ عَرَبِيٍّ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ

اسْتُحِيضَتْ فَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ أَبِي حُبَيْشٍ فَسَأَلَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنِّي أُسْتَحَاضُ فَلَا أَطْهُرُ أَفَأَدَعُ الصَّلَاةَ؟ فقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّمَا ذَلِكَ عِرْقٌ وَلَيْسَتْ بِالْحَيْضَةِ فَإِذَا أَقْبَلَتِ الْحَيْضَةُ فَدَعِي الصَّلَاةَ فَإِذَا أَدْبَرَتْ فَاغْسِلِي عَنْكِ أَثَرَ الدَّمِ وَتَوَضَّئِي فَإِنَّمَا ذَلِكَ عِرْقٌ وَلَيْسَتْ بِالْحَيْضَةِ» قِيلَ لَهُ فَالْغُسْلُ قَالَ وذَلِكَ يَشُكُّ فِيهِ أَحَدٌ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ لَا أَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا ذَكَرَ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ «وَتَوَضَّئِي» غَيْرَ حَمَّادِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ وَقَدْ رَوَى غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ عَنْ هِشَامٍ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ فِيهِ وَتَوَضَّئِي

✧ Fatimah bt. Abi Hubaysh suffered from prolonged uterine bleeding (istihadah). She asked the Prophet ﷺ, saying: “O Messenger of Allah, I have prolonged bleeding and I am never pure. Should I abandon prayer?” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “That is only a vein, not menstruation. When the menstrual period comes, abandon prayer; and when it ends, wash the trace of blood from yourself and perform wudu, for it is only a vein, not menstruation.” It was said to him: “What about ghusl?” He said: “Does anyone doubt that?” Abu Abd al-Rahman said: I do not know anyone who mentioned “and perform wudu” in this hadith other than Hammad b. Zayd. More than one narrator related it from Hisham without mentioning “and perform wudu.”
