Hazrat Saeed bin Jubair narrates that a woman brought a letter to Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them). I read it, and it was written in it that I am a mustahadah (a woman experiencing non-menstrual bleeding), and Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says that a mustahadah should perform ghusl for every prayer. Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) said that my opinion in this matter is the same.

Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) says regarding the woman experiencing irregular bleeding that she should delay the Zuhr prayer and offer Asr early, similarly, delay Maghrib and offer Isha early. And she should perform ghusl for Fajr. Hazrat Hakam says that I mentioned this to Hazrat Ibn Zubair and Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them), and they said, "This is also our opinion."

Hazrat Muhammad bin Uthman says that I asked Hazrat Salim and Hazrat Qasim about the woman with continuous bleeding (mustahadah). One of them said that she should not pray during the days of menstruation. When the days of menstruation pass, she should perform ghusl and pray. The other said that she should perform ghusl for the period from one Zuhr to the next Zuhr.

Hazrat Hamnah bint Jahsh says that she suffered from excessive istihada (non-menstrual bleeding) during the time of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him. She presented herself before the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, and said, "I am afflicted with extremely severe istihada." The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "Tie a piece of cotton firmly with cloth." She said, "It is much more than that and keeps flowing." The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "Put on a cloth belt and, according to Allah’s knowledge, spend six or seven days each month as menstruation, then perform ghusl (ritual bath), and for twenty-three or twenty-four days, offer prayers and keep fasts. Delay the Zuhr prayer and offer Asr early, and perform one ghusl for both. Then delay Maghrib and offer Isha early, and perform one ghusl for both. Of these two options, this is more preferable to me."

The Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: A woman experiencing istihada (non-menstrual bleeding) should refrain from prayer during the days of her menstruation, then perform ghusl, make ablution for every prayer, fast, and perform the prayers.

It is also narrated in the same way through the chain of Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him).

Hazrat Abu Ja'far says regarding the woman with istihada that this is a trick of Satan. When the blood becomes excessive, she should place a cloth and after the menstruation, perform ghusl and do wudu.

Hazrat Anas bin Sirin says that a woman from the family of Anas had istihada (non-menstrual bleeding). People instructed me to investigate her case. I asked Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them) and he said: If she sees continuous blood, she should not pray, and if she sees purity even for a part of the day, she should perform ghusl and pray.

Hazrat Zainab bint Umm Salamah narrates that I saw bint Jahsh. She was suffering from istihada (non-menstrual bleeding), and the bleeding was excessive, yet she used to perform prayers.

Hasan says that a woman experiencing istihada will perform ghusl from the Zuhr prayer of one day until the Zuhr prayer of the next day.
