[Machine] "He heard Jabir saying that the Prophet ﷺ abandoned his wives for a month, so he would stay on the upper level and then on the lower level. The Prophet ﷺ went to them on the twenty-ninth night. A man said, 'O Messenger of Allah, you stayed away for twenty-nine nights.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'The month is like this and this,' and he gestured with his fingers twice and clenched his thumb on the third time."  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرًا يَقُولُ هَجَرَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ نِسَاءَهُ شَهْرًا فَكَانَ يَكُونُ فِي الْعُلْوِ وَيَكُنَّ فِي السُّفْلِ فَنَزَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَيْهِنَّ فِي تِسْعٍ وَعِشْرِينَ لَيْلَةً فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّكَ مَكَثْتَ تَسْعًا وَعِشْرِينَ لَيْلَةً فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِنَّ الشَّهْرَ هَكَذَا وَهَكَذَا بِأَصَابِعِ يَدِيْهِ مَرَّتَيْنِ وَقَبَضَ فِي الثَّالِثَةِ إِبْهَامَهُ
