English translation

622. It was narrated that Umm Habibah bint Jahsh said: "I used to bleed continuously and heavily. I went to the Prophet ﷺ asking him for advice and telling him (about my situation). I found him with my sister Zainab and said: 'O Messenger of Allâh! I need to ask you something.' He said: 'What is it?' I said: 'I bleed continuously and heavily, and that is keeping me from prayer and fasting. What do you command me to do about it?' He said: 'I advise you to use a piece of cotton, for that will take away the blood.' I said: 'It is more than that.'" And he mentioned something like the Hadith of Sharik (below). (Da'if)

622 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ إِمْلَاءً عَلَيَّ مِنْ كِتَابِهِ، وَكَانَ السَّائِلُ غَيْرِي، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ، عَنْ أُمِّ حَبِيبَةَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ، قَالَتْ: كُنْتُ أُسْتَحَاضُ حَيْضَةً كَثِيرَةً طَوِيلَةً، قَالَتْ: فَجِئْتُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَسْتَفْتِيهِ وَأُخْبِرُهُ، قَالَتْ: فَوَجَدْتُهُ عِنْدَ أُخْتِي زَيْنَبَ، قَالَتْ: قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ لِي إِلَيْكَ حَاجَةً، قَالَ: «وَمَا هِيَ؟ أَيْ هَنْتَاهُ» قُلْتُ: إِنِّي أُسْتَحَاضُ حَيْضَةً طَوِيلَةً كَبِيرَةً، وَقَدْ مَنَعَتْنِي الصَّلَاةَ وَالصَّوْمَ، فَمَا تَأْمُرُنِي فِيهَا؟ قَالَ: «أَنْعَتُ لَكِ الْكُرْسُفَ، فَإِنَّهُ يُذْهِبُ الدَّمَ» قُلْتُ: هُوَ أَكْثَرُ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ شَرِيكٍ

'Use a piece of cotton' means: I advise you to put some cotton on the blood spot, and tie it with a piece of cloth so that the blood gets absorbed in the cotton, and does not intermittently spoil your clothes, and you are able to perform prayer etc., with perfect ease.
