Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ حَدَّثَنِي الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ طَاوُسٍ قَالَ كُنْتُ مَعَ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ زَيْدُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ أَنْتَ تُفْتِي الْحَائِضَ أَنْ تَصْدُرَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَكُونَ آخِرُ عَهْدِهَا بِالْبَيْتِ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَلَا تُفْتِي بِذَلِكَ قَالَ إِمَّا لَا فَاسْأَلْ فُلَانَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيَّةَ هَلْ أَمَرَهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِذَلِكَ فَرَجَعَ زَيْدٌ إِلَى ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ يَضْحَكُ فَقَالَ مَا أُرَاكَ إِلَّا قَدْ صَدَقْتَ.
English Translation
Zayd ibn Thabit said to Ibn 'Abbas: "Do you issue a ruling that a menstruating woman may depart (from Hajj) before her last act is (tawaf of) the House?" He said: "Yes." Zayd said: "Do not issue that ruling." Ibn 'Abbas said: "Then ask such-and-such Ansari woman whether the Prophet (peace be upon him) commanded her to do so." Zayd returned to Ibn 'Abbas laughing and said: "I see that you were right."
