Chapter on Menstruation, Istihada (abnormal bleeding), and Nifas (postpartum bleeding)

عَنْهُ عَنِ اَلْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَامِرٍ عَنْ حَجَّاجٍ اَلْخَشَّابِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ رَجُلٍ وَقَعَ عَلَى اِمْرَأَتِهِ فَطَمِثَتْ بَعْدَ مَا فَرَغَ أَ تَجْعَلُهُ غُسْلاً وَاحِداً إِذَا طَهُرَتْ أَوْ تَغْتَسِلُ مَرَّتَيْنِ قَالَ« تَجْعَلُهُ غُسْلاً وَاحِداً عِنْدَ طُهْرِهَا».
Al-‘Abbas ibn ‘Amir narrated from Hajjaj al-Khashshab, who said: I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام about a man who had relations with his wife, and then she began menstruating after he finished. Should she perform a single ghusl (ritual bath) when she becomes pure, or should she perform two separate ghusls? Imam عليه السلام said: "She should perform a single ghusl when she becomes pure."
