أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَارِثِ عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ وَعَمْرَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أَنَّ أُمَّ حَبِيبَةَ خَتَنَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَتَحْتَ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ اسْتُحِيضَتْ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ اسْتَفْتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي ذَلِکَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّ هَذِهِ لَيْسَتْ بِالْحَيْضَةِ وَلَکِنْ هَذَا عِرْقٌ فَاغْتَسِلِي وَصَلِّي
سنن نسائی · Hadith 207
It was narrated from ‘Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that Umm Habibah, an in-law of the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم who was married to ‘Abdur-Rahman bin ‘Awf, suffered Istihadah (non menstrual vaginal bleeding) for seven years. She consulted the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم about that and the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said: ‘That is not menstruation, rather that is a vein, so perform Ghusl and pray.” (Sahih)
