Sunan an-Nasai 367 (Book 3, Hadith 19) #14973
Praying During Menstruation

SUMMARY: The hadith is about a woman who asked the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) if she should stop praying due to not being able to become pure, and he replied that it was not menstruation and instructed her on how to proceed when her period comes.

It was narrated from 'Aishah that the daughter of Abu Hubaish said: "O Messenger of Allah, I do not become pure, so should I stop praying? He said: "no, that is a vein". - (One of the narrators) Khalid said, in what I read from him - "and it is not menstruation, so when your period comes, stop praying, and when it goes, wash the blood from yourself and pray".
أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الأَشْعَثِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ هِشَامًا، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ بِنْتَ أَبِي حُبَيْشٍ، قَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي لاَ أَطْهُرُ أَفَأَتْرُكُ الصَّلاَةَ قَالَ ‏"‏ لاَ إِنَّمَا هُوَ عِرْقٌ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ خَالِدٌ وَفِيمَا قَرَأْتُ عَلَيْهِ ‏"‏ وَلَيْسَتْ بِالْحِيضَةِ فَإِذَا أَقْبَلَتِ الْحِيضَةُ فَدَعِي الصَّلاَةَ وَإِذَا أَدْبَرَتْ فَاغْسِلِي عَنْكِ الدَّمَ ثُمَّ صَلِّي

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about a woman who asked the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) if she should stop praying due to not being able to become pure. The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) replied that it was not menstruation and instructed her on how to proceed when her period comes. He told her that when she experiences bleeding, she must stop praying until it stops and then wash away the blood from herself before resuming prayer. This hadith teaches us that even though women are unable to pray during their menstrual cycle due to purity reasons, they can still remain connected with Allah through other acts of worship such as reciting Quran or making du'a. It also teaches us the importance of maintaining physical cleanliness in order for our prayers to be accepted by Allah.
