حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عَقِيلٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ الْمُرَادِيُّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَا:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُرْوَةَ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَعَمْرَةَ بِنْتِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَنَّ أُمَّ حَبِيبَةَ بِنْتَ جَحْشٍ خَتَنَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَتَحْتَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ اسْتُحِيضَتْ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَاسْتَفْتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي ذَلِكَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ هَذِهِ لَيْسَتْ بِالْحَيْضَةِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَلَكِنْ هَذَا عِرْقٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَاغْتَسِلِي وَصَلِّي ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ:‏‏‏‏ فَكَانَتْ تَغْتَسِلُ فِي مِرْكَنٍ فِي حُجْرَةِ أُخْتِهَا زَيْنَبَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ حَتَّى تَعْلُوَ حُمْرَةُ الدَّمِ الْمَاءَ.

Umm Habibah , daughter of Jahsh رضی اللہ عنہا , sister-in-law of Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم and wife of Abdur-Rahman bin Awf, had a flow of blood for seven years. She asked the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم about it. The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: This is not menstruation but only vein; so you should take a bath and pray. Aishah رضی اللہ عنہا said: She used to take bath in a wash-tub in the apartment of her sister Zainab daughter of Jahsh رضی اللہ عنہا; the redness of (her) blood dominated the water.
