أَخْبَرَنَا عِمْرَانُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَعِيلُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْعَدَوِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَی بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتِ قَيْسٍ مِنْ بَنِي أَسَدِ قُرَيْشٍ أَنَّهَا أَتَتْ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَکَرَتْ أَنَّهَا تُسْتَحَاضُ فَزَعَمَتْ أَنَّهُ قَالَ لَهَا إِنَّمَا ذَلِکَ عِرْقٌ فَإِذَا أَقْبَلَتْ الْحَيْضَةُ فَدَعِي الصَّلَاةَ وَإِذَا أَدْبَرَتْ فَاغْسِلِي عَنْکِ الدَّمَ ثُمَّ صَلَّی
سنن نسائی · Hadith 203
It was narrated from Fatimah bint Qais from Banu Asad Quraish that she came to the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم and mentioned that she suffered from Istihadah (non-menstrual vaginal bleeding). She said that he said to her: “That is (bleeding from) a vein, so when the time of menstruation comes, stop praying, and when it goes, then wash the blood from yourself then pray.” (Sahih)
