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

عَلِيُّ بْنُ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ :فِي اِمْرَأَةٍ اِعْتَكَفَتْ ثُمَّ إِنَّهَا طَمِثَتْ فَقَالَ« تَرْجِعُ لَيْسَ لَهَا اِعْتِكَافٌ».
Ali ibn Al-Hasan ibn Faddal reported from Ahmad ibn Al-Hasan, from his father, from Ali ibn Uqbah, from his father, who narrated: I asked Abu Abdillah عليه السلام about a woman who was observing i'tikaf (spiritual retreat) and then began menstruating. Imam عليه السلام said: "She must leave, and her i'tikaf is invalid."
