(Book 20, Hadith 237) #36000
Menstruation and Hajj Rituals

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the Prophet Muhammad's advice on menstruating women and their ability to perform Hajj rituals.

Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa from his father from A'isha umm al-muminin that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, mentioned Safiyya bint Huyy and he was told that she had started her period. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Perhaps she will delay us". They said, "Messenger of Allah, she has done tawaf," and the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Then she will not delay us". Malik said that Hisham said that Urwa said that A'isha said, "We have publicized that, so why do people make their women stay on to their inconvenience? If it were as they say, more than six thousand menstruating women would still be in Mina in the morning, all of them having already done the tawaf al- ifada'. "
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ذَكَرَ صَفِيَّةَ بِنْتَ حُيَىٍّ فَقِيلَ لَهُ قَدْ حَاضَتْ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ لَعَلَّهَا حَابِسَتُنَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهَا قَدْ طَافَتْ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏"‏ فَلاَ إِذًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ مَالِكٌ قَالَ هِشَامٌ قَالَ عُرْوَةُ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ ‏.‏ وَنَحْنُ نَذْكُرُ ذَلِكَ فَلِمَ يُقَدِّمُ النَّاسُ نِسَاءَهُمْ إِنْ كَانَ ذَلِكَ لاَ يَنْفَعُهُنَّ وَلَوْ كَانَ الَّذِي يَقُولُونَ لأَصْبَحَ بِمِنًى أَكْثَرُ مِنْ سِتَّةِ آلاَفِ امْرَأَةٍ حَائِضٍ كُلُّهُنَّ قَدْ أَفَاضَتْ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith discusses the importance of allowing menstruating women to perform the rituals of Hajj. The Prophet Muhammad was asked about Safiyya bint Huyy who was menstruating at the time and he said that she would not delay them in performing their rituals. He then went on to explain why it is important for people not to make their women stay on if they are menstruating as it would be inconvenient for them. He also mentioned that if this were true, there would be more than six thousand women still in Mina in the morning after having done tawaf al-ifada. This hadith teaches us that we should respect all people regardless of gender or physical condition when it comes to religious practices and duties such as performing Hajj rituals. We should also ensure that no one is put at a disadvantage due to any physical condition or disability they may have so that everyone can equally benefit from religious practices and duties without any hindrance or difficulty.
