Chapter on Ritual Washings (Ghusl) and the Method of Performing Ghusl for Janabah (major impurity)

أَحْمَدُ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلْحَكَمِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ يَحْيَى اَلْكَاهِلِيِّ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلْمَرْأَةِ يُجَامِعُهَا اَلرَّجُلُ فَتَحِيضُ وَ هِيَ فِي اَلْمُغْتَسَلِ فَتَغْتَسِلُ أَمْ لاَ قَالَ« قَدْ جَاءَ مَا يُفْسِدُ اَلصَّلاَةَ فَلاَ تَغْتَسِلُ».
Ahmad, from Ali bin Al-Hakam, from Abdullah bin Yahya Al-Kahili, who said: I asked Abu Abdullah عليه السلام about a woman with whom a man has intercourse, and then she begins menstruating while she is in the place of ghusl. Should she perform ghusl or not? Imam عليه السلام said: "That which invalidates the prayer has occurred, so she should not perform ghusl."
