أَنَّ ابْنَةَ جَحْشٍ كَانَتْ تُسْتَحَاضُ سَبْعَ سِنِينَ فَسَأَلَتِ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ لَيْسَتْ بِالْحَيْضَةِ إِنَّمَا هُوَ عِرْقٌ فَأَمَرَهَا أَنْ تَتْرُكَ الصَّلاَةَ قَدْرَ أَقْرَائِهَا وَحِيضَتِهَا وَتَغْتَسِلَ وَتُصَلِّيَ فَكَانَتْ تَغْتَسِلُ عِنْدَ كُلِّ صَلاَةٍ

[Machine] Um Habiba, the daughter of Jahsh, experienced istihada (irregular bleeding) for seven years. She was the wife of Abdur Rahman ibn Awf. So she asked the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about this. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, this is a vein and not menstruation. So perform ablution and pray." Accordingly, she would perform ablution before every prayer.
