حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْنٌ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ أَبِي ذِئْبٍ عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ وَعَنْ عَمْرَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ أُمَّ حَبِيبَةَ اسْتُحِيضَتْ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ فَسَأَلَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ ذَلِکَ فَأَمَرَهَا أَنْ تَغْتَسِلَ فَقَالَ هَذَا عِرْقٌ فَکَانَتْ تَغْتَسِلُ لِکُلِّ صَلَاةٍ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 327
Narrated `Aisha: (the wife of the Prophet) Um Habiba got bleeding in between the periods for seven years. She asked Allah's Apostle about it. He ordered her to take a bath (after the termination of actual periods) and added that it was (from) a blood vessel. So she used to take a bath for every prayer.
