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

وَ عَنْهُ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلْمَرْأَةِ تَحِيضُ ثُمَّ تَطْهُرُ وَ رُبَّمَا رَأَتْ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ اَلشَّيْءَ مِنَ اَلدَّمِ اَلرَّقِيقِ بَعْدَ اِغْتِسَالِهَا مِنْ طُهْرِهَا فَقَالَ« تَسْتَظْهِرُ بَعْدَ أَيَّامِهَا بِيَوْمَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلاَثَةٍ ثُمَّ تُصَلِّي».
It is narrated from Al-Husayn ibn Sa’id, from Uthman ibn Isa, from Sa’id ibn Yasar, who said: I asked Abu Abdullah عليه السلام about a woman who menstruates and then becomes pure but sometimes sees a small amount of thin blood after performing ghusl for her purification. Imam عليه السلام said: "She should wait for one, two, or three days as a precaution after her regular menstrual days, and then she should pray."
