Sahih Muslim Hadith 710 – Women Are Obliged

English

[710] 30 – (311) It was narrated from Qatâdah that Anas bin Mâlik told them that Umm Sulaim narrated, that she asked the Prophet of Allah about a woman who sees in her dreams what a man sees. The Messenger of Allah said: "If a woman sees that, let her perform Ghusl." Umm Salamah said: "I felt shy because of that, and I said: 'Does that really happen?" The Prophet of Allah said: "How else does resemblance (of the child to either parent) happen? The water of the man is thick and white, and the water of the woman is thin and yellow. Whichever of them prevails, or comes first, the resemblance will be (to that parent)."
