English translation

294. It was reported from Shu'bah, from 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Al-Qāsim, from his father, from 'Āishah who said: "A woman suffered from Istiḥādah during the life-time of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. So she was commanded to advance the ʿAṣr prayer, and delay Zuhr, and perform Ghusl for both of them, and to delay Maghrib and advance Ishā, and perform Ghusl for both of them, and to perform Ghusl for the Ṣubḥ prayer." I (Shu'bah) said to 'Abdur-Rahmān: "Is this from the Prophet ﷺ?" So he replied: "I do not narrate anything to you except from the Prophet ﷺ." (Sahih)

Arabic text

294 - حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: «اسْتُحِيضَتِ امْرَأَةٌ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأُمِرَتْ أَنْ تُعَجِّلَ الْعَصْرَ وَتُؤَخِّرَ الظُّهْرَ وَتَغْتَسِلَ لَهُمَا غُسْلًا، وَأَنْ تُؤُخِّرَ الْمَغْرِبَ وَتُعَجِّلَ الْعِشَاءَ وَتَغْتَسِلَ لَهُمَا غُسْلًا، وَتَغْتَسِلَ لِصَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ غُسْلًا». فَقُلْتُ لِعَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: لَا أُحَدِّثُكَ إِلَّا عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِشَيْءٍ

Commentary

The woman mentioned in the narration is Sahlah bint Suhail as stated in the next narration. This Ghusl is recommended, but performing Ghusl once is enough, as it has been mentioned in the narration of the next chapter. This narration also shows that if the person is ill or suffering from some ailment, then it is allowed to join two prayers together. Two prayers like Zuhr and Asr can be offered together, and similarly Maghrib and Ishā' can be offered together.
