Chapter on the Rules of Menstruation, Istihadah, and Nifas, and Purification From Them
وَ بِهَذَا اَلْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنْ قَضَاءِ اَلْحَائِضِ اَلصَّلاَةَ ثُمَّ تَقْضِي اَلصِّيَامَ فَقَالَ« لَيْسَ عَلَيْهَا أَنْ تَقْضِيَ اَلصَّلاَةَ وَ عَلَيْهَا أَنْ تَقْضِيَ صَوْمَ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ» ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيَّ فَقَالَ« إِنَّ رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ كَانَ يَأْمُرُ بِذَلِكَ فَاطِمَةَ عَلَيْهَا اَلسَّلاَمُ وَ كَانَتْ تَأْمُرُ بِذَلِكَ اَلْمُؤْمِنَاتِ».
Through this chain of narration from Ali ibn Ibrahim, from Ibn Abi Umayr, from Umar ibn Udhayna, from Zurara, who said:
I asked Abu Ja'far عليه السلام about the menstruating woman regarding the obligation to make up prayer and fasting. Imam عليه السلام said: "She is not required to make up the prayer, but she is required to make up the fast of the month of Ramadan." Then Imam عليه السلام turned to me and said: "Indeed, the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) used to command (Sayyida) Fatimah صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم to do so, and she would command the believing women to do the same."
