Sunan Abi Dawud 292 (Book 1, Hadith 292) #20583
Taking Bath for Every Prayer

SUMMARY: The Prophet (PBUH) commanded a woman with a prolonged flow of blood to take a bath for every prayer.

'Aishah said: Umm Habibah had a prolonged flow of blood during the time of Messenger of Allah . He commanded her to take bath for every prayer. The narrator then transmitted the tradition (in full). Abu Dawud said: It has also been narrated by Abu al-Walid al-Tayalisi, but I did not hear him. He reported it from 'Aishah through a different chain of narrators'.Aishah said: Zainab daughter of Jahsh had a prolonged flow of blood. The Prophet said to her: Take bath for every prayer. The narrator then reported the tradition (in full). Abu Dawud said: The version transmitted by 'Abd al-Samad from Sulaiman b. Kathir has: "Perform ablution for every prayer". This is a misunderstanding on the part of 'Abd al-Samad. The correct version is the one narrated by Abu al-Walid.
حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، عَنْ عَبْدَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ أُمَّ حَبِيبَةَ بِنْتَ جَحْشٍ، اسْتُحِيضَتْ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَأَمَرَهَا بِالْغُسْلِ لِكُلِّ صَلاَةٍ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَرَوَاهُ أَبُو الْوَلِيدِ الطَّيَالِسِيُّ وَلَمْ أَسْمَعْهُ مِنْهُ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ كَثِيرٍ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتِ اسْتُحِيضَتْ زَيْنَبُ بِنْتُ جَحْشٍ فَقَالَ لَهَا النَّبِيُّ ‏"‏ اغْتَسِلِي لِكُلِّ صَلاَةٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَرَوَاهُ عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ كَثِيرٍ قَالَ ‏"‏ تَوَضَّئِي لِكُلِّ صَلاَةٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَهَذَا وَهَمٌ مِنْ عَبْدِ الصَّمَدِ وَالْقَوْلُ فِيهِ قَوْلُ أَبِي الْوَلِيدِ
