حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ يَحْيَی أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ يَعْنِي حُبِّي حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَکِ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ نَافِعٍ عَنْ کَثِيرِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَتْنِي الْأَزْدِيَّةُ يَعْنِي مُسَّةَ قَالَتْ حَجَجْتُ فَدَخَلْتُ عَلَی أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ فَقُلْتُ يَا أُمَّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ إِنَّ سَمُرَةَ بْنَ جُنْدُبٍ يَأْمُرُ النِّسَائَ يَقْضِينَ صَلَاةَ الْمَحِيضِ فَقَالَتْ لَا يَقْضِينَ کَانَتْ الْمَرْأَةُ مِنْ نِسَائِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَقْعُدُ فِي النِّفَاسِ أَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً لَا يَأْمُرُهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِقَضَائِ صَلَاةِ النِّفَاسِ قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ حَاتِمٍ وَاسْمُهَا مُسَّةُ تُکْنَی أُمَّ بُسَّةَ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُد کَثِيرُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ کُنْيَتُهُ أَبُو سَهْلٍ
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 312
Al-Azdiyyah, viz. Mussah, said: I performed Hajj and came to Umm Salamah and said (to her): Mother of the believers, Samurah bin Jundub commands women to complete the prayers abandoned during their menstrual period. She said: They should not do so. The wives of the Prophet ﷺ would refrain (from prayer) for forty nights (i. e. days) during the course of bleeding after child birth. The Prophet ﷺ would not command them to complete the prayers abandoned during the period of bleeding. Muhammad bin Hatim said: The name of Al-Azdiyyah is Mussah and her patronymic name is Umm Busrah. Abu Dawud said: The patronymic names of Kathir bin Ziyad s Abu Sahl.
