Chapter on the Rules of Menstruation, Istihadah, and Nifas, and Purification From Them
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ اَلْخَطَّابِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ اَلطَّاطَرِيِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنِ اِبْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنْ شُرَحْبِيلَ اَلْكِنْدِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: قَالَ لَهُ كَيْفَ تَعْرِفُ اَلطَّامِثُ طُهْرَهَا قَالَ« تَعْتَمِدُ بِرِجْلِهَا اَلْيُسْرَى عَلَى اَلْحَائِطِ وَ تَسْتَدْخِلُ اَلْكُرْسُفَ بِيَدِهَا اَلْيُمْنَى فَإِنْ كَانَ مِثْلُ رَأْسِ اَلذُّبَابِ خَرَجَ عَلَى اَلْكُرْسُفِ».
Muhammad ibn Ya'qub, from Muhammad ibn Yahya, from Salama ibn al-Khattab, from Ali ibn al-Hasan al-Tatari, from Muhammad ibn Abi Hamza, from Ibn Miskan, from Shurahbil al-Kindi, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, who said:
Imam عليه السلام was asked: "How does a menstruating woman recognize her purity?" Imam عليه السلام replied: "She leans her left foot against the wall and inserts a piece of cotton with her right hand. If there is something like the tip of a fly (of blood) on the cotton, it indicates her condition."
