أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ اسْتَفْتَتْ أُمُّ حَبِيبَةَ بِنْتُ جَحْشٍ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي أُسْتَحَاضُ فَقَالَ إِنَّمَا ذَلِکَ عِرْقٌ فَاغْتَسِلِي وَصَلِّي فَکَانَتْ تَغْتَسِلُ لِکُلِّ صَلَاةٍ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 208
It was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “Umm Habibah bint Jahsh consulted the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم and said: ‘Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم, I suffer from Istihadah (non- menstrual vaginal bleeding).’ He said: ‘That is a vein, so perform Ghusl and pray.’ And she used to perform Ghusl for every prayer.” (Sahih)
