Chapter on Menstruation, Istihada (abnormal bleeding), and Nifas (postpartum bleeding)
عَنْهُ عَنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ بِنْتِ إِلْيَاسَ عَنْ جَمِيلِ بْنِ دَرَّاجٍ وَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حُمْرَانَ جَمِيعاً عَنْ زُرَارَةَ وَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« يَجِبُ لِلْمُسْتَحَاضَةِ أَنْ تَنْظُرَ بَعْضَ نِسَائِهَا فَتَقْتَدِيَ بِأَقْرَائِهَا ثُمَّ تَسْتَظْهِرَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ بِيَوْمٍ».
Narrated from al-Hasan ibn Bint Ilyas, from Jamil ibn Darraj and Muhammad ibn Humran, both from Zurara and Muhammad ibn Muslim:
Abu Ja'far عليه السلام: "It is obligatory for a woman in a state of istihadah (irregular bleeding) to observe the menstrual cycles of her female relatives and follow their pattern. Then, she should add one extra day as a precaution."
