Hadith 419
۞
Hadith.1989 - Ali ibn Mahziyar narrated:
"I wrote to Imam (as) about a woman who became pure from her menstruation or postpartum bleeding at the beginning of the day in the Month of Ramadan, but then experienced istihadha (irregular bleeding). She prayed and fasted the entire Month of Ramadan without performing the required ghusl for every two prayers as is prescribed for a woman in istihadha. Is her fasting and prayer valid or not?"
Imam (as) wrote in reply: "She must make up her fasts, but she does not need to make up her prayers, because the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family) used to command the believing women among his wives to follow this ruling."

كَتَبْتُ إِلَيْهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ اِمْرَأَةٌ طَهُرَتْ مِنْ حَيْضِهَا أَوْ دَمِ نِفَاسِهَا فِي أَوَّلِ يَوْمٍ مِنْ شَهْرِ رَمَضَانَ ثُمَّ اِسْتَحَاضَتْ فَصَلَّتْ وَ صَامَتْ شَهْرَ رَمَضَانَ كُلَّهُ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ تَعْمَلَ مَا تَعْمَلُهُ اَلْمُسْتَحَاضَةُ مِنَ اَلْغُسْلِ لِكُلِّ صَلاَتَيْنِ هَلْ يَجُوزُ صَوْمُهَا وَ صَلاَتُهَا أَمْ لاَ فَكَتَبَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ «تَقْضِي صَوْمَهَا وَ لاَ تَقْضِي صَلاَتَهَا لِأَنَّ رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ كَانَ يَأْمُرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنَاتِ مِنْ نِسَائِهِ بِذَلِكَ ».
