4. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from ibn abu Najran from Safwan from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Hajj aj who has said the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘Three kinds of women can marry in all conditions: a woman who does not experience Hayd (menses) and alike whom women do not experience Hayd (menses).’ He (the narrator) has said that I then asked, ‘What is her limit?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘One who is less than nine years, one with whom he has not gone to bed and one after menopause and whose like do not experience Hayd (menses).’ I then asked, ‘What is the limit?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is when she becomes fifty years old.’”
عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجْرَانَ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَجَّاجِ قَالَ
قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) ثَلَاثٌ يَتَزَوَّجْنَ عَلَى كُلِّ حَالٍ الَّتِي لَمْ تَحِضْ وَ مِثْلُهَا لَا تَحِيضُ قَالَ قُلْتُ وَ مَا حَدُّهَا قَالَ إِذَا أَتَى لَهَا أَقَلُّ مِنْ تِسْعِ سِنِينَ وَ الَّتِي لَمْ يُدْخَلْ بِهَا وَ الَّتِي قَدْ يَئِسَتْ مِنَ الْمَحِيضِ وَ مِثْلُهَا لَا تَحِيضُ قُلْتُ وَ مَا حَدُّهَا قَالَ إِذَا كَانَ لَهَا خَمْسُونَ سَنَةً .
