أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلْحَكَمِ عَنِ اَلْعَلاَءِ اَلْقَلاَّءِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَحَدِهِمَا عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ اَلْحُبْلَى تَرَى اَلدَّمَ كَمَا كَانَتْ تَرَى أَيَّامَ حَيْضِهَا مُسْتَقِيماً فِي كُلِّ شَهْرٍ قَالَ« تُمْسِكُ عَنِ اَلصَّلاَةِ كَمَا كَانَتْ تَصْنَعُ فِي حَيْضِهَا فَإِذَا طَهُرَتْ صَلَّتْ».
Ahmad bin Muhammad, from Ali bin Al-Hakam, from Al-Ala' Al-Qalla', from Muhammad bin Muslim, from one of the Imams عليه السلام:
I asked Imam عليه السلام about a pregnant woman who sees blood regularly during her pregnancy, just as she used to see it during her menstrual days each month. Imam عليه السلام said: "She should refrain from prayer as she used to do during her menstruation. When she becomes pure, she should pray."
