Chapter on the Rules of Menstruation, Istihadah, and Nifas, and Purification From Them

وَ بِهَذَا اَلْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ بْنِ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: فِي اَلرَّجُلِ يَأْتِي اَلْمَرْأَةَ فِيمَا دُونَ اَلْفَرْجِ وَ هِيَ حَائِضٌ قَالَ« لاَ بَأْسَ إِذَا اِجْتَنَبَ ذَلِكَ اَلْمَوْضِعَ».
Through the same chain of narration from Ali ibn Al-Hasan, from Muhammad ibn Abdullah ibn Zurara, from Muhammad ibn Abi Umayr, from Hisham ibn Salim, from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام: Imam عليه السلام was asked regarding a man who engages with a menstruating woman in ways other than the front. Imam عليه السلام said: "There is no harm as long as he avoids that specific area."
