[Machine] My aunt Fatimah bint Abi Hubaysh told me that she came to Aisha and said to her, "O Mother of the Believers, I have feared that I would not have a share in Islam and that I would be from the people of the Fire, so I stay as long as Allah wills during my monthly period, and I do not pray to Allah during it." Aisha said to her, "Sit and wait until the Prophet ﷺ comes." So when the Prophet ﷺ came, she said, "O Messenger of Allah, this is Fatimah bint Abi Hubaysh, she fears that she would not have a share in Islam and that she would be from the people of the Fire, so she stays as long as Allah wills during her monthly period and does not pray to Allah during it." He said to her, "Tell Fatimah bint Abi Hubaysh to count the number of days of her period every month, then she should perform ghusl (ritual bath), apply perfume, seek forgiveness, and cleanse herself. Then she should purify herself before each prayer and pray, for indeed, that (abstaining from prayer during menstruation) is a rukhsah (concession) from the Shaytan, or a vein that has been severed, or an illness that has afflicted her."
