Umm Habibah, daughter of Jahsh and sister-in-law of Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلمm and wife of Abdur-Rahman bin Awf رضی اللہ عنہ , had a prolonged flow of blood for seven years. She inquired from the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم about it. The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: This is not menstruation, but this (due to) a vein. Therefore, wash yourself and pray. Abu Dawud said: In this tradition which is transmitted by al-Zuhri from Urwah and Urwah on the authority of Aishah, al-Awzai added: She (Aishah) said: Umm Habibah daughter of Jahsh رضی اللہ عنہا and wife of Abdur-Rahman bin Awf had a prolonged flow of blood for seven years. The Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم commander her saying: When the menstruation begins, abandon prayer; when it is finished, take a bath and pray. Abu Dawud said: None of the disciple of al-Zuhri mentioned these words except al-Awzai, from al-Zuhri it has been narrated by Amr bin al-Harith, al-Laith, Yunus, Ibn Abi Dhi'b, Mamar, Ibrahim bin Saad, Sulaiman bin Kathir, Ibn Ishaq and Sufyan bin Uyainah, they did not narrate these words. Abu Dawud said: These are the words of the version reported by Hisham bin Urwah from this father on the authority of Aishah. Abu Dawud said: In this tradition Ibn Uyainah also added the words: He commander her to abandon prayer during her menstrual period. This is a misunderstanding on the part of Ibn Uyainah. The version of this tradition narrated by Muhammad bin Amr from al-Zuhri has the addition similar to that made by al-Awzai in his version.
