Chapter 3 · The Book of Tayammum (Rubbing Hands And Feet With Dust)النُّفَسَاءِ كَمْ تَجْلِسُ
حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجَهْضَمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا شُجَاعُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ، عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى، عَنْ أَبِي سَهْلٍ، عَنْ مُسَّةَ الْأَزْدِيَّةِ، عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، قَالَتْ: كَانَتِ النُّفَسَاءُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَجْلِسُ أَرْبَعِينَ يَوْمًا، وَكُنَّا نَطْلِي وُجُوهَنَا بِالْوَرْسِ مِنَ الْكَلَفِ .
