حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ كُنَّا نَحِيضُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ثُمَّ نَطْهُرُ

Al-Mubarakfuri — Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi

قَوْلُهُ : ( عَنْ عُبَيْدَةَ ) بِالتَّصْغِيرِ اِبْنُ مُعَتِّبٍ بِمِيمٍ مَضْمُومَةٍ وَفَتْحِ عَيْنٍ وَكَسْرِ مُثَنَّاةٍ فَوْقِيَّةٍ ثَقِيلَةٍ بَعْدَهَا مُوَحَّدَةٌ الْكُوفِيُّ الضَّرِيرُ ضَعِيفٌ وَاخْتَلَطَ بِآخِرِهِ مِنْ الثَّامِنَةِ , مَا لَهُ فِي الْبُخَارِيِّ سِوَى مَوْضِعٌ وَاحِدٌ فِي الْأَضَاحِيِّ , كَذَا فِي التَّقْرِيبِ. قُلْت : عَلَّقَ لَهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ فِي ذَلِكَ الْمَوْضِعِ الْوَاحِدِ. قَوْلُهُ : ( فَيَأْمُرُنَا بِقَضَاءِ الصِّيَامِ وَلَا يَأْمُرُنَا بِقَضَاءِ الصَّلَاةِ ) قَدْ عُلِّلَ ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّ قَضَاءَ الصَّوْمِ لَا يَشُقُّ ; لِأَنَّهُ لَا يَكُونُ فِي السَّنَةِ إِلَّا مَرَّةً بِخِلَافِ قَضَاءِ الصَّلَاةِ فَإِنَّهُ يَشُقُّ كَثِيرًا ; لِأَنَّهُ يَكُونُ غَالِبًا فِي كُلِّ شَهْر…
