Sunan Abi Dawud 364 (Book 1, Hadith 364) #20655
Cleaning Blood Stains with Saliva during Menstruation

SUMMARY: During menstruation, women would use their saliva to clean any blood stains on their clothing.

'Aishah said: One of us would have a shirt in which she would menstruate and in it she became sexually defiled. Then if she ever saw any drop of blood in it, she would rub it off by applying her saliva.
حَدَّثَنَا النُّفَيْلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجِيحٍ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ قَدْ كَانَ يَكُونُ لإِحْدَانَا الدِّرْعُ فِيهِ تَحِيضُ وَفِيهِ تُصِيبُهَا الْجَنَابَةُ ثُمَّ تَرَى فِيهِ قَطْرَةً مِنْ دَمٍ فَتَقْصَعُهُ بِرِيقِهَا
