Intercourse Of A Husband With A Woman In A State Of Istihadah

'Ikrimah said:

Umm Habibah had a prolonged flow of blood ; her husband used to cohabit with her. Abu Dawud said: Yahya b. Ma'in has pronounced Mu'alla (a narrator of this tradition) as trustworthy. But Ahmad b. Hanbal would not report (traditions) from him because he exercised personal opinion.

حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُعَلَّى بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنِ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، قَالَ كَانَتْ أُمُّ حَبِيبَةَ تُسْتَحَاضُ فَكَانَ زَوْجُهَا يَغْشَاهَا ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَقَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ مَعِينٍ مُعَلَّى ثِقَةٌ ‏.‏ وَكَانَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَنْبَلٍ لاَ يَرْوِي عَنْهُ لأَنَّهُ كَانَ يَنْظُرُ فِي الرَّأْىِ ‏.‏

'Ikrimah reported Hamnah daughter of Jahsh as saying that her husband would have intercourse with her during the period she had a flow of blood.

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ أَبِي سُرَيْجٍ الرَّازِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْجَهْمِ، حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ أَبِي قَيْسٍ، عَنْ عَاصِمٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنْ حَمْنَةَ بِنْتِ جَحْشٍ، أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ مُسْتَحَاضَةً وَكَانَ زَوْجُهَا يُجَامِعُهَا ‏.‏
