English translation

363. It was narrated from 'Aishah that Fâtimah bint Abî Hubaish suffered from Istihâdah. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said to her: "Menstrual blood is blood that is black and recognizable, so if it is like that, then stop praying, and if it is otherwise, then perform Wudû' and pray." (Sahîh) Abû 'Abdur-Rahmân said: Others reported this Hadîth, and none of them mentioned what Ibn 'Adî mentioned, and Allâh knows best.

Arabic text

363 - وَأَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ مِنْ حِفْظِهِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ أَبِي حُبَيْشٍ كَانَتْ تُسْتَحَاضُ، فَقَالَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ دَمَ الْحَيْضِ دَمٌ أَسْوَدُ يُعْرَفُ فَإِذَا كَانَ ذَلِكَ فَأَمْسِكِي عَنِ الصَّلَاةِ، فَإِذَا كَانَ الْآخَرُ فَتَوَضَّئِي وَصَلِّي» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ: قَدْ رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ، وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ أَحَدٌ مِنْهُمْ مَا ذَكَرَ ابْنُ أَبِي عَدِيٍّ وَاللَّهُ تَعَالَى أَعْلَمُ

Commentary

It is necessary for a woman having Istihâdha - a woman continuing to have a flow of blood after her days of menstruation - to perform a fresh ablution for each ritual prayer. For further elucidation vide Hadîth 216.
