Take care of your health during your menstrual cycle; Be mindful when performing religious duties as prescribed by Islam; Perform ablution if needed before praying; Follow the commands given by the Prophet .

This hadith is about Umm Habibah daughter of Jahsh who was suffering from a prolonged flow of blood. The Prophet commanded her to refrain from prayer during her menstrual period and then she should wash and pray. If she sees anything which renders ablution void then she should perform ablution again before praying. This hadith teaches us that it is important for women to take care of their health during their menstrual cycle by refraining from prayer until they are able to perform ablution again if needed. It also teaches us that we should be mindful when performing our religious duties as prescribed by Islam in order for them to be accepted by Allah SWT.
