[Machine] Umm Habibah, the daughter of Ja'far, came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and she had been experiencing istihadah (abnormal bleeding) for seven years. She complained about it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and sought his advice. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to her, "This is not menstruation, but rather a hemorrhage, so perform ablution and then pray." Aisha said, "Umm Habibah used to perform ablution for every prayer and she would sit on a piece of cloth, and the redness of the blood would appear as water, then she would pray."

Umm Habibah, daughter of Jahsh, sister-in-law of Messenger of Allah ﷺ and wife of 'Abd al-Rahman b. 'Awf, had a flow of blood for seven years. She asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about it. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: This is not menstruation but only vein; so you should take a bath and pray. 'Aishah said: She used to take bath in a wash-tub in the apartment of her sister Zainab daughter of Jahsh ; the redness of (her) blood dominated the water.

[Machine] Abu Kamil's mother, Umm Habibah, sent a message to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying that she experienced istihadah (abnormal bleeding) for seven years and she consulted him about it. He responded that it was not menstruation but rather istihadah, so she should perform ablution and pray. She would then perform ablution for each prayer, pray, and sit on a spot where the redness of the blood would appear, then she would pray.

"عَنْ أُمِّ حَبِيبَةَ أَنَّهَا اسْتُحِيضَتْ فَجَعَلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَجَلَ حَيْضِهَا سِتَّةَ أَيَّامٍ أَوْ سَبْعَةً، وَاسْتُحِيضَتْ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ فَاشْتَكَتْ ذَلِكَ إِلى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ : لَيْسَتْ تِلْكَ بِحَيْضَةٍ وَلَكِنَّهُ عِرْقٌ فَاغْتسِلِي، فَكَانَتْ تَغْتِسِلُ عِنْدَ كُلِّ صَلَاةٍ، وَكَانَتْ تَغْتسِلُ فِي الْمِرْكَنِ فَتَرى صُفْرَةَ الدَّم فِي الْمِرْكَنِ".
