Volume 1, Book 6, Number 317:
Narrated ‘Aisha:
Fatima bint Abi Hubaish used to have bleeding in between the periods, so she asked the Prophet
about it . He replied, “The bleeding is from a blood vessel and not the menses. So give up the prayers
when the (real) menses begin and when it has finished, take a bath and start praying.”

Narrated Mu’adha:
A woman asked ‘Aisha, “Should I offer the prayers that which I did not offer because of menses”
‘Aisha said, “Are you from the Huraura’ (a town in Iraq?) We were with the Prophet and used to get
our periods but he never ordered us to offer them (the Prayers missed during menses).” ‘Aisha per –
haps said, “We did not offer them.”
Volume 1, Book 6, Number 319:
Narrated Zainab bint Abi Salama:
Um-Salama said, “I got my menses while I was lying with the Prophet under a woolen sheet. So I
slipped away, took the clothes for menses and put them on. Allah’s Apostle said, ‘Have you got your
menses?’ I replied, ‘Yes.’ Then he called me and took me with him under the woolen sheet.” Um
Salama further said, “The Prophet used to kiss me while he was fasting. The Prophet and I used to
take the bath of Janaba from a single pot.”
