The Shaykh : Praise be to Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and his Companions:
In the preceding part of Fatimah's hadith, there is an indication that a menstruating woman does not pray.
The student: His saying (peace and blessings be upon him):Sahih al-Bukhari 228.
The Shaykh :Sahih al-Bukhari 228, now, is she required to make up the prayer? Yes?
The student: She is not required to.
The Shaykh : Where do we take this from in Fatimah's hadith?
The student: Because he did not order her to.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The student: Because the Messenger did not order her, he did not order her to make it up.
The Shaykh : He said: and he did not say "then, then make it up."
Now, is there in Fatimah's hadith an indication that one who has a continuous state of ritual impurity prays? Yes?
The student: Yes.
The Shaykh : How?
The student: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her: even though the blood continued with her.
The Shaykh : Even though the blood continued with her, and he said:.
If a man has incontinence of urine that does not stop, or stops at an unspecified time, what does he do when the time for prayer enters? Ahmad?
The student: He performs ablution for the prayer and prays.
The Shaykh : And prays, and if it comes out?
The student: It does not invalidate.
The Shaykh : It does not invalidate the ablution? It does not invalidate the ablution, yes, and this is taken from His saying:[Al-Baqarah 2:286].
But if, O 'Abd Allah ibn 'Uthay!
The student: Yes.
The Shaykh : If it is his habit that it stops at the end of the time, at a time when he is able to perform ablution and pray, do we say: delay the prayer or pray at the beginning of the time?
The student: We tell him: delay the prayer as long as he is able to perform ablution.
The Shaykh : He knows that, for example, a quarter of an hour or half an hour before the sun rises, let it be half an hour, the urine stops, for example, do we say: delay, or do we say: pray at the beginning of the time?
The student: We tell him: delay.
The Shaykh : We say delay, is it obligatory?
The student: ... .
The Shaykh : Does not this delay necessitate that he prays the prayer with complete purity?
The student: Yes.
The Shaykh : Now, if that is the case, we say: it is obligatory for you to delay, because offering the prayer at the beginning of its time is a matter of preference, clear?
The student: Yes.
The Shaykh : And for this reason, the jurists said: "And if it is customary for it to stop for a period that is sufficient for the act, it becomes necessary to delay the prayer until this period".
Now, his saying (may the prayer and peace of Allah be upon him): what is the meaning of "iqbal" (approach)? Yes?
The student: The approach of menstruation if the days are known in the month by custom and it approaches, or by distinction.
The Shaykh : By distinction, yes, so the approach of menstruation is by custom for one who has a custom before irregular bleeding, and by distinction for the beginner who did not have a custom before.
And some of the scholars said that distinction takes precedence over custom, and there is disagreement on this, which will come if Allah wills.
In the preceding part of Fatimah's hadith, there is an indication that a menstruating woman does not pray.
The student: His saying (peace and blessings be upon him):
So when your real menses begins give up your prayers
إذا أقبلت حيضتك فدعي الصلاةThe Shaykh :
So when your real menses begins give up your prayers

The Shaykh : Where do we take this from in Fatimah's hadith?
The student: Because he did not order her to.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The student: Because the Messenger did not order her, he did not order her to make it up.
The Shaykh : He said:
Leave off the prayer
دعي الصلاةNow, is there in Fatimah's hadith an indication that one who has a continuous state of ritual impurity prays? Yes?
The student: Yes.
The Shaykh : How?
The student: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her:
Then pray
ثم صليThe Shaykh : Even though the blood continued with her, and he said:
That is blood from a vein
إن ذلك دم عرقIf a man has incontinence of urine that does not stop, or stops at an unspecified time, what does he do when the time for prayer enters? Ahmad?
The student: He performs ablution for the prayer and prays.
The Shaykh : And prays, and if it comes out?
The student: It does not invalidate.
The Shaykh : It does not invalidate the ablution? It does not invalidate the ablution, yes, and this is taken from His saying:
Allah does not charge a soul except [with that within] its capacity
لا يكلف الله نفسا إلا وسعهاBut if, O 'Abd Allah ibn 'Uthay!
The student: Yes.

Now, his saying (may the prayer and peace of Allah be upon him):
When your menstruation approaches
إذا أقبلت حيضتكThe student: The approach of menstruation if the days are known in the month by custom and it approaches, or by distinction.
The Shaykh : By distinction, yes, so the approach of menstruation is by custom for one who has a custom before irregular bleeding, and by distinction for the beginner who did not have a custom before.
