Chapter on the Rules of Menstruation, Istihadah, and Nifas, and Purification From Them
وَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَحْمَدُ بْنُ عُبْدُونٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ اَلزُّبَيْرِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ جَمِيلِ بْنِ دَرَّاجٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« أَقَلُّ مَا يَكُونُ اَلْحَيْضُ ثَلاَثَةُ أَيَّامٍ وَ إِذَا رَأَتِ اَلدَّمَ قَبْلَ عَشَرَةِ أَيَّامٍ فَهِيَ مِنَ اَلْحَيْضَةِ اَلْأُولَى وَ إِذَا رَأَتْهُ بَعْدَ عَشَرَةِ أَيَّامٍ فَهُوَ مِنْ حَيْضَةٍ أُخْرَى مُسْتَقْبِلَةٍ».
Ahmad ibn ‘Ubdun narrated to me from Ali ibn Muhammad ibn al-Zubayr, from Ali ibn al-Hasan ibn Faddal, from Ya‘qub ibn Yazid, from Muhammad ibn Abi ‘Umayr, from Jamil ibn Darraj, from Muhammad ibn Muslim:
Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام said: "The minimum duration of menstruation is three days. If she sees blood before ten days, it is part of the first menstrual period. However, if she sees it after ten days, it is considered part of a new, subsequent menstrual period."
