Allah عزوجل
says
(وَ یَسْـَٔلُوۡنَکَ عَنِ الْمَحِیۡضِ ؕ قُلْ
ہُوَ اَذًی ۙ فَاعْتَزِلُوا النِّسَآءَ فِی الْمَحِیۡضِ ۙ وَلَا تَقْرَبُوۡہُنَّ
حَتّٰی یَطْہُرْنَ ۚ فَاِذَا تَطَہَّرْنَ فَاۡتُوۡہُنَّ مِنْ حَیۡثُ اَمَرَکُمُ
اللہُ ؕ اِنَّ اللہَ یُحِبُّ التَّوَّابِیۡنَ وَیُحِبُّ الْمُتَطَہِّرِیۡنَ ﴿۲۲۲﴾
) ـ4ـ
‘O Beloved! They enquire from you in regards to
menstruation. You say, It is an impure thing, so keep away from women during
their menstrual cycles, and do not be intimate with them, until they have
become pure. So, when they have purified themselves, come to them from where
Allah has commanded you to. Verily, Allah loves those who repent, and those who
have purified themselves.’ [Surah 2,
Verse 222]
Hadith 1: It
is reported in Sahih Muslim on the authority of Anas bin Maalik رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہ that when any Jewish woman would
enter into her menstrual cycle neither would they allow her to eat with them
nor did they keep her with them in their homes. The Sahaba enquired in this
regard from the Prophet صلی اﷲ
تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم, so
due to this Almighty Allah عزوجل
revealed the verse ( وَ یَسْئَلُوْنَکَ عَنِ
الْمَحِیْضِ ) [Surah2,
Verse222], so the Prophet صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم said, ‘With the exception of having
sexual intercourse do whatever else you wish.’ When the Jews heard of this they
began to say that he صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ
علیہ وسلم wishes to do everything contrary to us. Due to this Usaid
bin Hudair and Ubad bin Bishr رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ
عنھما
came forth and said, ‘The Jews are
saying such and such a thing, so should we not have intercourse with them (so
that we may act totally against them)?’ The expression on the Holy Face of
Rasoolullah صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم changed to the extent that we
thought that he would become upset at them. The two of them left and after
them, someone sent a gift of milk to Rasoolullah صلی اﷲ
تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم . Huzoor صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم then sent someone out to summon them
and then fed the milk to them, so they understood that Huzoor صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم was not displeased with them.
Hadith 2: It
is in Sahih Bukhari that Umm ul Momineen Sayyidah Siddiqa رضی اﷲ
تعالیٰ عنہا says, ‘We departed for Hajj and when
we reached ‘Suruf’, my cycle started, so I began to weep and Rasoolullah صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم approached me and said, ‘What has
happened, are you in your cycle?’ I replied in the positive, so he صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم said, ‘This is such a thing which
Almighty Allah has written (i.e. ordained) for the daughters of Adam, so do
everything else which all those in Hajj do except for the Tawaaf of the Holy
Kaaba.’ She further says, ‘Huzoor صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ
علیہ وسلم sacrificed a cow on behalf of all his Holy wives.’
Hadith 3: It
is reported in Sahih Bukhari that Urwah was asked, ‘Can a female who is in her
menstrual cycle serve me and can an impure female (Junub) sit close to me?’
Urwah replied, ‘All this is easy upon me and all of them can serve me and there
is no objection to any of them in this regard. Umm ul Momineen A’isha رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہا informed me that she used to comb the sacred hair of Rasoolullah
صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم whilst she was in her cycle and when Huzoor was in
seclusion (I’tekaf), he would place his head close to her and she would be inside
her room.’
Hadith 4: It
is in Sahih Muslim from Umm ul Momineen Sayyidah Siddiqa رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہا wherein she says, ‘During my cycle, I used to drink water
and then give it to Rasoolullah صلی اﷲ
تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم , so Huzoor صلی اﷲ
تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم
used to place his holy mouth at the
spot that my mouth had touched.’
Hadith 5: It
is in Sahihain from Umm ul Momineen Sayyidah A’isha Siddiqa رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہا
wherein she says, ‘Whilst I would be
in my cycle, Huzoor صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم would keep his sacred head on my lap
and recite the Holy Qur’an.’
Hadith 6: It
is reported in Sahih Muslim from Umm ul Momineen Siddiqa رضی اﷲ
تعالیٰ عنہا wherein she says, ‘Huzoor asked me
to stretch out my hand and pick the Musal’la (prayer mat) from the Musjid, so I
replied by saying that I was in my cycle (menstruating). Huzoor صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ
علیہ وسلم said, ‘your cycle is not in your
hand.’’
Hadith 7: It
is reported in Sahihain from Umm ul Momineen Maymuna رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہا wherein she says that Rasoolullah صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم used to pray his Namaaz in a sheet,
a portion of which was on me and a portion on him and I was in my cycle at this
time.
Hadith 8: Tirmizi
and Ibn Majah report on the authority of Abu Hurairah رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہ that Rasoolullah صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم said, ‘One who has intercourse with a
menstruating female, or has intercourse with a female from her anus, or one who
goes to a fortune teller, he has committed ungratefulness (i.e. disbelief) of
that which has been revealed upon Muhammad صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم ’.
Hadith 9: It
is in the narration of Razeen that Mu’az ibn Jabl رضی اﷲ
تعالیٰ عنہ
said, ‘Ya Rasool’Allah صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم ! What is Halaal (lawful) upon me from her, when my wife is
menstruating?’ He صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم said, ‘That which is above the waist-cloth
(i.e. above the navel) and to avoid even that is better.’
Hadith 10: The
Ashaab-e-Sunan Arba’a reported on the authority of Ibn Ab’bas that Rasoolullah صلی اﷲ
تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم said, ‘One who has intercourse with his wife during her
menstrual cycle should give half a dinar in Sadqa.’ There is another narration
in Tirmizi on the authority of Ibn Ab’bas رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ
عنہ
which says that, he صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم said,
‘When the blood is red, he should give 1 dinar and when it is yellowish, he
should give half a dinar.’
