"عن زيدِ بنِ أسلم قالَ: بلغَنِى أن عمرَ بنَ الخطابِ جاءتْهُ امرأةٌ فقالت: إِنَّ زوجَهَا لا يُصيبُها، فأرسلَ إِلَى زَوْجِهَا فسألَهُ، فقالَ: كَبِرْتُ وذَهَبَتْ قُوَّتى، فقالَ عمرُ: أَتُصِيبُهَا في كلِّ شهرٍ مرةً؟ قَالَ: أَكثرُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ، قَالَ: فِى كَمْ؟ قالَ: أُصِيبُهَا فِى كُلِّ طُهرٍ مَرةً، قالَ عمرُ: اذهبِى فإِنَّ فِى هَذَا مَا يَكْفِى المرأةَ".

"It has reached me that 'Umar ibn al-Khattab was approached by a woman who said: Her husband does not approach her. He sent for her husband and asked him. He said: I have grown old and my strength has gone. 'Umar said: Do you approach her once a month? He said: More than that. He said: How often? He said: I approach her once in every purity. 'Umar said: Go, for in this is what suffices a woman."
