حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم

يَأْمُرُ إِحْدَانَا إِذَا كَانَتْ حَائِضًا أَنْ تَتَّزِرَ ثُمَّ يُضَاجِعُهَا زَوْجُهَا

Al-Azimabadi — Awn al-Ma'bud

( أَنْ تَتَّزِر ) أَيْ تَشُدّ إِزَارًا يَسْتُر سُرَّتهَا وَمَا تَحْتهَا إِلَى الرُّكْبَة فَمَا تَحْتهَا. وَقَوْله تَتَّزِر بِتَشْدِيدِ الْمُثَنَّاة الْفَوْقَانِيَّة. قَالَ الْحَافِظ : وَلِلْكُشْمِيهَنِيّ أَنْ تَأْتَزِر بِهَمْزَةٍ سَاكِنَة وَهِيَ أَفْصَح , وَيَأْتِي حَدِيث عَائِشَة أَيْضًا فِي آخِر الْبَاب بِلَفْظِ : يَأْمُرنَا أَنْ نَتَّزِر وَهُوَ بِفَتْحِ النُّون وَتَشْدِيد الْمُثَنَّاة الْفَوْقَانِيَّة , وَأَنْكَرَهُ أَكْثَر النُّحَاة وَأَصْله فَنَأْتَزِر بِهَمْزَةٍ سَاكِنَة بَعْد النُّون الْمَفْتُوحَة ثُمَّ الْمُثَنَّاة الْفَوْقَانِيَّة عَلَى وَزْن اِفْتَعَلَ. قَالَ اِبْن هِشَام : وَعَوَامّ الْمُحَدِّثِينَ يُحَرِّفُونَهُ فَيَقْرَءُونَ بِأَلِفٍ وَتَاء مُشَدَّدَة , أَيْ اتَّزَر وَلَا وَجْه…

The Prophet (ﷺ) used to embrace me during my menses. He also used to put his head out of the mosque while he was in I`tikaf, and I would wash it during my menses.

يُبَاشِرُنِي وَأَنَا حَائِضٌ‏.‏ وَكَانَ يُخْرِجُ رَأْسَهُ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ وَهْوَ مُعْتَكِفٌ فَأَغْسِلُهُ وَأَنَا حَائِضٌ‏.‏
