Rabiah said: Umm Habibah daughter of Jahsh had a prolonged flow of blood. The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم commander her to refrain (from prayer) during her menstrual period; then she should wash and pray. If she sees anything (which renders ablution void) she should perform ablution and pray. Abu Dawud said: This is the view held by Malik bin Anas.
