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

أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ كَيْفَ صَارَتِ اَلْحَائِضُ تَأْخُذُ مَا فِي اَلْمَسْجِدِ وَ لاَ تَضَعُ فِيهِ فَقَالَ« إِنَّ اَلْحَائِضَ تَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ تَضَعَ مَا فِي يَدِهَا فِي غَيْرِهِ وَ لاَ تَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ تَأْخُذَ مَا فِيهِ إِلاَّ مِنْهُ».
Ahmad ibn Muhammad reported from Hammad ibn Isa, from Hariz, from Zurarah, who said: I asked Abu Ja'far عليه السلام: "Why is it that a menstruating woman is allowed to take something from inside the mosque but is not permitted to place anything in it?" Imam عليه السلام replied: "The menstruating woman can place what is in her hand somewhere else, but she cannot take what is inside the mosque except from within it."
