حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَلَّی بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مُسْهِرٍ عَنْ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ عَنْ عِکْرِمَةَ قَالَ کَانَتْ أُمُّ حَبِيبَةَ تُسْتَحَاضُ فَکَانَ زَوْجُهَا يَغْشَاهَا قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد و قَالَ يَحْيَی بْنُ مَعِينٍ مُعَلَّی ثِقَةٌ وَکَانَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ لَا يَرْوِي عَنْهُ لِأَنَّهُ کَانَ يَنْظُرُ فِي الرَّأْيِ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 309
Ikrimah said: Umm Habibah had a prolonged flow of blood ; her husband used to cohabit with her. Abu Dawud said: Yahya bin Main has pronounced Mu'alla (a narrator of this tradition) as trustworthy. But Ahmad bin Hanbal would not report (traditions) from him because he exercised personal opinion.
