Chapter on the Rules of Menstruation, Istihadah, and Nifas, and Purification From Them
مَا أَخْبَرَنِي بِهِ اَلشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ أَبَانٍ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنِ اِبْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ عَنِ اَلْفُضَيْلِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَحَدِهِمَا عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «اَلنُّفَسَاءُ تَكُفُّ عَنِ اَلصَّلاَةِ أَيَّامَهَا اَلَّتِي كَانَتْ تَمْكُثُ فِيهَا ثُمَّ تَغْتَسِلُ كَمَا تَغْتَسِلُ اَلْمُسْتَحَاضَةُ».
The Shaykh (Al-Mufid), may Allah سبحانه وتعالى support him, narrated to me from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from his father, from Al-Husayn ibn Al-Hasan ibn Aban, from Al-Husayn ibn Sa’id, from Ibn Abi Umayr, from Ibn Udhaynah, from Al-Fudhayl ibn Yasar, from Zurara, from one of the Imams عليه السلام, who said:
Imam عليه السلام said: "The woman in a state of nifas (postnatal bleeding) refrains from prayer during the days she usually experiences such bleeding. Then, she performs ghusl as the mustahadah (a woman with irregular bleeding) does."
