"They argued about Ghusl in the presence of the messenger of Allah ﷺ. One of the people said: 'I perform Ghusl in such-and-such a manner.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'As for me, I pour three handfuls of water over my head.'"  

تَمَارَوْا فِي الْغُسْلِ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ بَعْضُ الْقَوْمِ إِنِّي لأَغْسِلُ كَذَا وَكَذَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَمَّا أَنَا فَأُفِيضُ عَلَى رَأْسِي ثَلاَثَ أَكُفٍّ  

"Take a piece of cloth perfumed with musk and purify yourself with it." She said: "How should I purify myself with it?" He covered his face then said: "Subhan Allah! Purify yourself with it." 'Aishah said: "I took the woman aside and said: 'Wipe away the traces of blood with it.'"  

أَنَّ امْرَأَةً سَأَلَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنْ غُسْلِهَا مِنَ الْمَحِيضِ فَأَخْبَرَهَا كَيْفَ تَغْتَسِلُ ثُمَّ قَالَ خُذِي فِرْصَةً مِنْ مِسْكٍ فَتَطَهَّرِي بِهَا قَالَتْ وَكَيْفَ أَتَطَهَّرُ بِهَا فَاسْتَتَرَ كَذَا ثُمَّ قَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ تَطَهَّرِي بِهَا قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ ؓ فَجَذَبْتُ الْمَرْأَةَ وَقُلْتُ تَتَّبِعِينَ بِهَا أَثَرَ الدَّمِ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used not to perform Wudu' after Ghusl."  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لاَ يَتَوَضَّأُ بَعْدَ الْغُسْلِ  

"My maternal aunt Maimunah told me: 'I brought the Messenger of Allah ﷺ water for his Ghusl from Janabah, and he washed his hands two or three times, then he put his right hand in the vessel and poured water over his private part, then he washed it with his left hand. Then he put his left hand on the ground and rubbed it hard. Then he performed Wudu' as for prayer,then poured three scoops with his two hands full of water over his head, then he washed his entire body, then he moved away from where he had been standing and washed his feet.' She said: 'Then I brought him a towel but he refused it.'"  

أَدْنَيْتُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ غُسْلَهُ مِنَ الْجَنَابَةِ فَغَسَلَ كَفَّيْهِ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلاَثًا ثُمَّ أَدْخَلَ بِيَمِينِهِ فِي الإِنَاءِ فَأَفْرَغَ بِهَا عَلَى فَرْجِهِ ثُمَّ غَسَلَهُ بِشِمَالِهِ ثُمَّ ضَرَبَ بِشِمَالِهِ الأَرْضَ فَدَلَكَهَا دَلْكًا شَدِيدًا ثُمَّ تَوَضَّأَ وُضُوءَهُ لِلصَّلاَةِ ثُمَّ أَفْرَغَ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ ثَلاَثَ حَثَيَاتٍ مِلْءَ كَفِّهِ ثُمَّ غَسَلَ سَائِرَ جَسَدِهِ ثُمَّ تَنَحَّى عَنْ مَقَامِهِ فَغَسَلَ رِجْلَيْهِ قَالَتْ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ بِالْمِنْدِيلِ فَرَدَّهُ  

It was narrated from Ibn 'Abbas that the Prophet ﷺ performed Ghusl and a cloth was brought to him, but he did not touch it, and he started doing like this with the water. [1] [1] This is a demonstration of his wiping off the water on his body with his hands.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ اغْتَسَلَ فَأُتِيَ بِمِنْدِيلٍ فَلَمْ يَمَسَّهُ وَجَعَلَ يَقُولُ بِالْمَاءِ هَكَذَا  

"If the Prophet ﷺ" - (one of the narrators) 'Amr said: "If the Messenger of Allah ﷺ" - "wanted to eat or sleep while he was Junub, he would perform Wudu'." In his narration, 'Amr (one of the narrators) added: "Wudu' was for prayer."  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَقَالَ عَمْرٌو كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ أَوْ يَنَامَ وَهُوَ جُنُبٌ تَوَضَّأَ زَادَ عَمْرٌو فِي حَدِيثِهِ وُضُوءَهُ لِلصَّلاَةِ  

It was narrated from 'Aishah that if the Messenger of Allah ﷺ wanted to sleep while he was Junub, he would perform Wudu', and if he wanted to eat he would wash his hands.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَنَامَ وَهُوَ جُنُبٌ تَوَضَّأَ وَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ غَسَلَ يَدَيْهِ  

"If the Messenger of Allah ﷺ wanted to sleep while he was Junub, he would perform Wudu', and if he wanted to eat or drink," she said: "he would wash his hands and then eat or drink."  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَنَامَ وَهُوَ جُنُبٌ تَوَضَّأَ وَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَأْكُلَ أَوْ يَشْرَبَ قَالَتْ غَسَلَ يَدَيْهِ ثُمَّ يَأْكُلُ أَوْ يَشْرَبُ  

"If the Messenger of Allah ﷺ wanted to sleep while he was Junub, he would perform Wudu' as for prayer before sleeping."  

إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ يَنَامَ وَهُوَ جُنُبٌ تَوَضَّأَ وُضُوءَهُ لِلصَّلاَةِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَنَامَ  

"O Messenger of Allah! May any one of us sleep while he is Junub?" He said: "When he performs Wudu'."  

يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَيَنَامُ أَحَدُنَا وَهُوَ جُنُبٌ قَالَ إِذَا تَوَضَّأَ  

"Umar mentioned to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ that he became Junub at night, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Perform Wudu' and wash you penis, then sleep.'"  

ذَكَرَ عُمَرُ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ تُصِيبُهُ الْجَنَابَةُ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ تَوَضَّأْ وَاغْسِلْ ذَكَرَكَ ثُمَّ نَمْ  

"The angels do not enter a house where there is an image, a dog or a Junub person."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ لاَ تَدْخُلُ الْمَلاَئِكَةُ بَيْتًا فِيهِ صُورَةٌ وَلاَ كَلْبٌ وَلاَ جُنُبٌ  

"When any one of you a wants to return (to have intercourse again), let him perform Wudu'."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ إِذَا أَرَادَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَنْ يَعُودَ تَوَضَّأَ  

It was narrated from Anas bin Malik that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went around all his wives and only performed Ghusl once.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ طَافَ عَلَى نِسَائِهِ فِي لَيْلَةٍ بِغُسْلٍ وَاحِدٍ  

It was narrated from Anas that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to (go around) all his wives and perform Ghusl once.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَطُوفُ عَلَى نِسَائِهِ فِي غُسْلٍ وَاحِدٍ  

"I came to 'Ali with two other men and he said: 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to come out of the toilet and recite Qur'an, and he would eat meat with us and nothing would prevent him from (reciting) Qur'an except Janabah."  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَخْرُجُ مِنَ الْخَلاَءِ فَيَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ وَيَأْكُلُ مَعَنَا اللَّحْمَ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ يَحْجُبُهُ عَنِ الْقُرْآنِ شَىْءٌ لَيْسَ الْجَنَابَةَ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to recite Qur'an in all circumstances except when he was Junub."  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقْرَأُ الْقُرْآنَ عَلَى كُلِّ حَالٍ لَيْسَ الْجَنَابَةَ  

"When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ met a man from among his Companions, he would shake hands with him and supplicate for him. I saw him one day in the early morning, and I tried to avoid him, then I came to him later in the day. He said: 'I saw you but you were avoiding me.' I said: 'I was Junub and I was afraid that you would touch me.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'The Muslim is not made impure (Najis).'"  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا لَقِيَ الرَّجُلَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ مَاسَحَهُ وَدَعَا لَهُ قَالَ فَرَأَيْتُهُ يَوْمًا بُكْرَةً فَحِدْتُ عَنْهُ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ حِينَ ارْتَفَعَ النَّهَارُ فَقَالَ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُكَ فَحِدْتَ عَنِّي فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي كُنْتُ جُنُبًا فَخَشِيتُ أَنْ تَمَسَّنِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِنَّ الْمُسْلِمَ لاَ يَنْجُسُ  

"And he came close to me and reached out his hand. I said: 'I am Junub.' He said: 'The Muslim is not made impure (Najis).'"  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ لَقِيَهُ وَهُوَ جُنُبٌ فَأَهْوَى إِلَىَّ فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي جُنُبٌ فَقَالَ إِنَّ الْمُسْلِمَ لاَ يَنْجُسُ  

'Where were you, O Abu Hurairah?' He said: 'O Messenger of Allah, you met us but I was Junub, and I did not want to sit in your presence until I had performed Ghusl.' He said: 'Subhan Allah! The believer is not made impure (Najis).'"  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ لَقِيَهُ فِي طَرِيقٍ مِنْ طُرُقِ الْمَدِينَةِ وَهُوَ جُنُبٌ فَانْسَلَّ عَنْهُ فَاغْتَسَلَ فَفَقَدَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَلَمَّا جَاءَ قَالَ أَيْنَ كُنْتَ يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّكَ لَقِيتَنِي وَأَنَا جُنُبٌ فَكَرِهْتُ أَنْ أُجَالِسَكَ حَتَّى أَغْتَسِلَ فَقَالَ سُبْحَانَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ لاَ يَنْجُسُ  

"While the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was in the Masjid, he said: 'O 'Aishah, hand me the garment.' She said: 'I am not praying.' He said: 'It is not in your hand.' So she gave it to him."  

أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ بَيْنَمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ إِذْ قَالَ يَا عَائِشَةُ نَاوِلِينِي الثَّوْبَ فَقَالَتْ إِنِّي لاَ أُصَلِّي قَالَ إِنَّهُ لَيْسَ فِي يَدِكِ فَنَاوَلَتْهُ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Give me the mat from the Masjid.'" She said: "I am menstruating." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Your menstruation is not in you hand."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَاوِلِينِي الْخُمْرَةَ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ قَالَتْ إِنِّي حَائِضٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَيْسَتْ حَيْضَتُكِ فِي يَدِكِ  

A similar Hadith was narrated from Al-A'mash with the same chain.  

عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ مِثْلَهُ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to lay his head in the lap of one of us while she was menstruating and recite Qur'an, and one of us would take the mat to the Masjid and spread it out while she was menstruating."  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَضَعُ رَأْسَهُ فِي حِجْرِ إِحْدَانَا فَيَتْلُو الْقُرْآنَ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ وَتَقُومُ إِحْدَانَا بِالْخُمْرَةِ إِلَى الْمَسْجِدِ فَتَبْسُطُهَا وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ  

"The head of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would rest in the lap of one of us when she was menstruating, and he would recite Qur'an."  

كَانَ رَأْسُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي حِجْرِ إِحْدَانَا وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ وَهُوَ يَتْلُو الْقُرْآنَ  

"The Prophet ﷺ would put his head out while he was in I'tikaf and I would wash it, while I was menstruating."  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُومِئُ إِلَىَّ رَأْسَهُ وَهُوَ مُعْتَكِفٌ فَأَغْسِلُهُ وَأَنَا حَائِضٌ  

"The Prophet ﷺ would put his head out for me while he was performing I'tikaf [1] and I would wash it, when I was menstruating." [1] Mujawir ("next door") here means while performing I'tikaf.  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُخْرِجُ إِلَىَّ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ وَهُوَ مُجَاوِرٌ فَأَغْسِلُهُ وَأَنَا حَائِضٌ  

"I used to comb the hair of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when I was menstruating."  

كُنْتُ أُرَجِّلُ رَأْسَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا حَائِضٌ  

Something similar was narrated by Malik, from Az-Zuhri, from 'Urwah, from 'Aishah.  

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ  

"Can a woman eat with her husband while she is menstruating? She said: 'Yes. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would call me to eat with him while I was menstruating. He would take a piece of bone on which some bits of meat were left and insist that I take it first, so I would nibble a little from it, then put it down. Then he would take it and nibble from it, and he would put his mouth where mine had been on the bone. Then he would ask for a drink and insist that I take it first before he drank from it. So I would take it and drink from it, then put it down, then he would take it and drink from it, putting his mouth where mine had been on the cup.'"  

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ؓ سَأَلْتُهَا هَلْ تَأْكُلُ الْمَرْأَةُ مَعَ زَوْجِهَا وَهِيَ طَامِثٌ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَدْعُونِي فَآكُلُ مَعَهُ وَأَنَا عَارِكٌ وَكَانَ يَأْخُذُ الْعَرْقَ فُيُقْسِمُ عَلَىَّ فِيهِ فَأَعْتَرِقُ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ أَضَعُهُ فَيَأْخُذُهُ فَيَعْتَرِقُ مِنْهُ وَيَضَعُ فَمَهُ حَيْثُ وَضَعْتُ فَمِي مِنَ الْعَرْقِ وَيَدْعُو بِالشَّرَابِ فَيُقْسِمُ عَلَىَّ فِيهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَشْرَبَ مِنْهُ فَآخُذُهُ فَأَشْرَبُ مِنْهُ ثُمَّ أَضَعُهُ فَيَأْخُذُهُ فَيَشْرَبُ مِنْهُ وَيَضَعُ فَمَهُ حَيْثُ وَضَعْتُ فَمِي مِنَ الْقَدَحِ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to put his mouth on the place where I had drunk from, and he would drink from what was leftover by me, while I was menstruating."  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَضَعُ فَاهُ عَلَى الْمَوْضِعِ الَّذِي أَشْرَبُ مِنْهُ فَيَشْرَبُ مِنْ فَضْلِ سُؤْرِي وَأَنَا حَائِضٌ  

"I heard 'Aishah say: 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would hand me the vessel and I would drink from it, while I was menstruating, then I would give it to him and he would look for the place where I had put my mouth and put that to his mouth.'"  

سَمِعْتُ عَائِشَةَ ؓ تَقُولُ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُنَاوِلُنِي الإِنَاءَ فَأَشْرَبُ مِنْهُ وَأَنَا حَائِضٌ ثُمَّ أُعْطِيهِ فَيَتَحَرَّى مَوْضِعَ فَمِي فَيَضَعُهُ عَلَى فِيهِ  

"I would drink while I was menstruating, then I would hand it to the Prophet ﷺ, and he would put his mouth where mine had been and drink. And I would nibble at the bone on which some bits of meat were left while I was menstruating, then I would give it to the Prophet ﷺ and he would put his mouth where my mouth had been."  

كُنْتُ أَشْرَبُ وَأَنَا حَائِضٌ وَأُنَاوِلُهُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَيَضَعُ فَاهُ عَلَى مَوْضِعِ فِيَّ فَيَشْرَبُ وَأَتَعَرَّقُ الْعَرْقَ وَأَنَا حَائِضٌ وَأُنَاوِلُهُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَيَضَعُ فَاهُ عَلَى مَوْضِعِ فِيَّ  

"While I was lying down with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ under a blanket, my period came, so I slipped away and put on the clothes I used to wear when I was menstruating. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Are you menstruating?' I said: 'Yes.' Then he called me and I lied down with him under the blanket."  

بَيْنَمَا أَنَا مُضْطَجِعَةٌ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي الْخَمِيلَةِ إِذْ حِضْتُ فَانْسَلَلْتُ فَأَخَذْتُ ثِيَابَ حَيْضَتِي فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَفِسْتِ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ فَدَعَانِي فَاضْطَجَعْتُ مَعَهُ فِي الْخَمِيلَةِ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I would sleep under a single blanket when I was menstruating. If anything got on him from me, he would wash that spot and no more, and pray in it, then come back. If anything got on it again from me, he would do likewise and no more, and he would pray in it."  

كُنْتُ أَنَا وَرَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ نَبِيتُ فِي الشِّعَارِ الْوَاحِدِ وَأَنَا طَامِثٌ أَوْ حَائِضٌ فَإِنْ أَصَابَهُ مِنِّي شَىْءٌ غَسَلَ مَكَانَهُ وَلَمْ يَعْدُهُ وَصَلَّى فِيهِ ثُمَّ يَعُودُ فَإِنْ أَصَابَهُ مِنِّي شَىْءٌ فَعَلَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ وَلَمْ يَعْدُهُ وَصَلَّى فِيهِ  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would tell one of us, if she was menstruating, to tie her Izar (waist wrap) tightly then he would fondle her."  

كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَأْمُرُ إِحْدَانَا إِذَا كَانَتْ حَائِضًا أَنْ تَشُدَّ إِزَارَهَا ثُمَّ يُبَاشِرُهَا  

"If one of us was menstruating, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would tell her to put on an Izar (waist wrap) then he would fondle her."  

كَانَتْ إِحْدَانَا إِذَا حَاضَتْ أَمَرَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ تَتَّزِرَ ثُمَّ يُبَاشِرُهَا  

"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ would fondle one of his wives while she was menstruating, if she wore an Izar (waist wrap) that reached halfway down to the middle of her thighs or to her knees." In the narration of Al-Laith: "Being covered with it."  

عَنْ بُدَيَّةَ وَكَانَ اللَّيْثُ يَقُولُ نَدَبَةَ مَوْلاَةُ مَيْمُونَةَ عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ قَالَتْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُبَاشِرُ الْمَرْأَةَ مِنْ نِسَائِهِ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ إِذَا كَانَ عَلَيْهَا إِزَارٌ يَبْلُغُ أَنْصَافَ الْفَخِذَيْنِ وَالرُّكْبَتَيْنِ فِي حَدِيثِ اللَّيْثِ مُحْتَجِزَةً بِهِ  

"When one of their womenfolk menstruated, the Jews would not eat or drink with them, nor mix with them in their houses. They asked the Prophet of Allah ﷺ about that, and Allah the Mighty and Sublime revealed: The ask you concerning menstruation. Say: 'That is an Adha (a harmful thing).'[2] So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ commanded them to eat and drink with them (menstruating women) and to mix with them in their houses, and to do everything with them except intercourse. The Jews said: 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ does not leave anything against it.' Usaid bin Hudair and 'Abbad bin Bishr went and told the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and they said: 'Should we have intercourse with them when they are menstruating?' The expression of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ changed greatly until we thought that he was angry with them, and they left. Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ received a gift of milk, so he sent someone to bring them back and he gave them some to drink, so they knew that he was not angry with them." [1] Al-Baqarah 2:222. [2] Al-Baqarah 2:222.  

كَانَتِ الْيَهُودُ إِذَا حَاضَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ مِنْهُمْ لَمْ يُؤَاكِلُوهُنَّ وَلَمْ يُشَارِبُوهُنَّ وَلَمْ يُجَامِعُوهُنَّ فِي الْبُيُوتِ فَسَأَلُوا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ ﷻ { وَيَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الْمَحِيضِ قُلْ هُوَ أَذًى } الآيَةَ فَأَمَرَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنْ يُؤَاكِلُوهُنَّ وَيُشَارِبُوهُنَّ وَيُجَامِعُوهُنَّ فِي الْبُيُوتِ وَأَنْ يَصْنَعُوا بِهِنَّ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ مَا خَلاَ الْجِمَاعَ  

"Let him give a Dinar or half a Dinar in charity."  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِي الرَّجُلِ يَأْتِي امْرَأَتَهُ وَهِيَ حَائِضٌ يَتَصَدَّقُ بِدِينَارٍ أَوْ بِنِصْفِ دِينَارٍ  

"We went out with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ with no intention other than Hajj. When he was in Sarif [1] I began menstruating. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon me and I was weeping. He said: 'What is the matter with you? Has your Nifas begun?' [2] I said: 'Yes.' He said: 'This is something that Allah the Mighty and Sublime has decreed for the daughter of Adam. Do what the pilgrims do, but do not perform tawaf around the House.' And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sacrificed a cow on behalf of his wives." [1] Sarif is a place between Al-Madinah and Makkah, near Makkah. [2] Here, it means menstruation. See the chapter clarifying that where it appears again, No. 349.  

خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ لاَ نُرَى إِلاَّ الْحَجَّ فَلَمَّا كَانَ بِسَرِفَ حِضْتُ فَدَخَلَ عَلَىَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَنَا أَبْكِي فَقَالَ مَا لَكِ أَنَفِسْتِ فَقُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ هَذَا أَمْرٌ كَتَبَهُ اللَّهُ ﷻ عَلَى بَنَاتِ آدَمَ فَاقْضِي مَا يَقْضِي الْحَاجُّ غَيْرَ أَنْ لاَ تَطُوفِي بِالْبَيْتِ وَضَحَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ نِسَائِهِ بِالْبَقَرِ  

"My father told me: 'We cam to jabir bin 'Abdullah and asked him about the hajj of the prophet ﷺ. He narrated: 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ set out when there were five (days) remaining in Dhul-Qa'dah, and we set out with him. When he came to Dhul-Hulaifah, Asma' bint 'Umais gave birth to Muhammad bin Abi Bakr. She sent word to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ asking what she should do. He said: 'Perform Ghusl, bind yourself with a cloth then begin (the Talbiyah for Ihram).'"  

عَنْ حَجَّةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَحَدَّثَنَا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ خَرَجَ لِخَمْسٍ بَقِينَ مِنْ ذِي الْقَعْدَةِ وَخَرَجْنَا مَعَهُ حَتَّى إِذَا أَتَى ذَا الْحُلَيْفَةِ وَلَدَتْ أَسْمَاءُ بِنْتُ عُمَيْسٍ مُحَمَّدَ بْنَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ قَالَ اغْتَسِلِي وَاسْتَثْفِرِي ثُمَّ أَهِلِّي  

"I heard Umm Qais bint Mihsan say that she asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about menstrual blood that gets on one's clothes. He said: 'Scratch it with a stick and wash it with water and lotus leaves.'"  

أَنَّهَا سَأَلَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ دَمِ الْحَيْضِ يُصِيبُ الثَّوْبَ قَالَ حُكِّيهِ بِضِلَعٍ وَاغْسِلِيهِ بِمَاءٍ وَسِدْرٍ  

"Scratch it, then rub it with water, then sprinkle water over it, and pray in it."  

عَنْ أَسْمَاءَ بِنْتِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَكَانَتْ تَكُونُ فِي حِجْرِهَا أَنَّ امْرَأَةً اسْتَفْتَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ عَنْ دَمِ الْحَيْضِ يُصِيبُ الثَّوْبَ فَقَالَ حُتِّيهِ ثُمَّ اقْرُصِيهِ بِالْمَاءِ ثُمَّ انْضَحِيهِ وَصَلِّي فِيهِ  

"Did the Messenger of Allah ﷺ pray in a garment in which he had had intercourse?" She said: "Yes, so long as he saw no filth on it."  

أَنَّهُ سَأَلَ أُمَّ حَبِيبَةَ زَوْجَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ هَلْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يُصَلِّي فِي الثَّوْبِ الَّذِي كَانَ يُجَامِعُ فِيهِ قَالَتْ نَعَمْ إِذَا لَمْ يَرَ فِيهِ أَذًى  

"I used to wash the Janabah from the garment of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he would go out to pray, with traces of water on his garment."  

كُنْتُ أَغْسِلُ الْجَنَابَةَ مِنْ ثَوْبِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَيَخْرُجُ إِلَى الصَّلاَةِ وَإِنَّ بُقَعَ الْمَاءِ لَفِي ثَوْبِهِ  

"I used to scrape the Janabah." On another occasion she said: "The semen from the garment of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ."  

وَقَالَتْ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى الْمَنِيَّ مِنْ ثَوْبِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ  

"I remember when I could do no more than rub it form the garment of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ."  

أَنْ أَفْرُكَهُ مِنْ ثَوْبِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ  

"I used to rub it off from the garment of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ."  

كُنْتُ أَفْرُكُهُ مِنْ ثَوْبِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ  

"I used to see it on the garment of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and scratch it off."  

كُنْتُ أَرَاهُ فِي ثَوْبِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَحُكُّهُ
