[Machine] Fatimah was in a state of postpartum bleeding and she would cleanse herself from it by washing. She would then come out while still having a yellowish and reddish discharge. Umm Salamah, the wife of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ , asked her for consultation. He said, "She should wait for the duration of her menses, during which she discontinues prayer and continues to cleanse herself with the exception of that. She may then pray." So I said to Sulayman bin Yasar, "Does her husband approach her during this period?" He replied, "We only say what we have heard."
أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ اسْتُحِيضَتْ وَكَانَتْ تَغْتَسِلُ مِنَ الْمِرْكَنِ فَتَخْرُجُ وَهِيَ عَالِيَةُ الصُّفْرَةِ وَالْكُدْرَةِ فَاسْتَفْتَتْ لَهَا أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «تَنْتَظِرُ أَيَّامَ حَيْضِهَا فَتَدَعُ الصَّلَاةَ فِيهَا وَتَغْتَسِلُ فِيمَا سِوَى ذَلِكَ وَتُصَلِّي» قَالَ أَيُّوبُ فَقُلْتُ لِسُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ يَأْتِيهَا زَوْجُهَا؟ قَالَ «إِنَّمَا نَقُولُ مَا سَمِعْنَا»
