Arabic text

٦٩٠ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، عَنْ ‌حُمَيْدٍ ، عَنْ ‌أَنَسٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «آلَى» رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ نِسَائِهِ شَهْرًا، فَأَقَامَ فِي مَشْرُبَةٍ تِسْعًا وَعِشْرِينَ يَوْمًا، قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّكَ آلَيْتَ شَهْرًا؟ فَقَالَ: الشَّهْرُ تِسْعٌ وَعِشْرُونَ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.
