Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ الْقَاسِمِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْقَاسِمَ، يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ عَائِشَةَ، تَقُولُ خَرَجْنَا لاَ نَرَى إِلاَّ الْحَجَّ، فَلَمَّا كُنَّا بِسَرِفَ حِضْتُ، فَدَخَلَ عَلَىَّ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَأَنَا أَبْكِي قَالَ ‏"‏ مَا لَكِ أَنُفِسْتِ ‏"‏‏.‏ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ إِنَّ هَذَا أَمْرٌ كَتَبَهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى بَنَاتِ آدَمَ، فَاقْضِي مَا يَقْضِي الْحَاجُّ، غَيْرَ أَنْ لاَ تَطُوفِي بِالْبَيْتِ ‏" ‏‏.‏ قَالَتْ وَضَحَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنْ نِسَائِهِ بِالْبَقَرِ‏.‏

Translation

Ali ibn Abdullah narrated to us, saying: Sufyan narrated to us, saying: I heard Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Qasim, who said: I heard al-Qasim say: I heard Aishah say: We set out intending nothing but Hajj. When we reached Sarif, I began menstruating. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came in to me while I was crying and said: “What is the matter? Have you begun menstruating?” I said: “Yes.” He said: “This is something Allah has ordained for the daughters of Adam. Do all that a pilgrim does, except do not circumambulate the House.” Aishah said: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sacrificed cows on behalf of his wives.
