Hadith record

3. Muhammad has narrated from al-Fadl from Safwan from Muhammad al-Halabiy who has said the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of a woman who experiences Istihadah. He (the Imam) said that the Messenger of Allah was asked about a woman who experienced Istihadah. He (the Messenger of Allah) told her to wait for a number of days equal to the days of her Hayd (menses) in which she must not perform Salah (prayer). She then must take Ghusl (bath) and place cotton, then secure it in place with a piece of cloth; then perform Salah (prayer) until blood comes out from the other side of the cloth.’ He (the Imam) then said, ‘A bleeding woman must take Ghusl (bath) between every two Salah (prayer) and replace cotton and cloth, use perfume and burn incense. The piece of cloth must be like a belt to harness animals.’”
