EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith tells us that it is permissible for a woman to comb the hair of her husband while she is menstruating. This was narrated by 'Aishah who was one of the wives of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. During this time in history, women were not allowed to touch their husbands during their menstrual cycle as it was seen as impure and unclean. However, this hadith shows us that even during this time period it was still permissible for a woman to do something as simple as combing her husband's hair while she was on her period. This teaches us that although there are certain restrictions placed on women during their menstrual cycle, they are still able to perform some tasks such as caring for their husbands in small ways like brushing his hair or giving him a massage. It also teaches us that despite what society may think about periods being unclean or impure, Allah has given permission for women to do certain things even when they are menstruating and we should respect these rulings and not judge them based on our own opinions or beliefs.
