Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَيَّاشٍ، - وَهُوَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ - عَنْ صَدَقَةَ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ كَلِمَةً مَعْنَاهَا حَدَّثَنَا جُمَيْعُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ، قَالَ دَخَلْتُ عَلَى عَائِشَةَ مَعَ أُمِّي وَخَالَتِي فَسَأَلَتَاهَا كَيْفَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَصْنَعُ إِذَا حَاضَتْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ قَالَتْ كَانَ يَأْمُرُنَا إِذَا حَاضَتْ إِحْدَانَا أَنْ تَتَّزِرَ بِإِزَارٍ وَاسِعٍ ثُمَّ يَلْتَزِمُ صَدْرَهَا وَثَدْيَيْهَا ‏.‏

Translation

Hannad ibn al-Sari informed us, from Ibn 'Ayyash—Abu Bakr—from Sadaqah ibn Sa'id. Then he mentioned a phrase to this effect: Jumay' ibn 'Umayr narrated to us. He said: I entered upon 'A'ishah with my mother and my maternal aunt, and they asked her: 'What would the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) do when one of you menstruated?' She said: 'When one of us menstruated, he would tell her to wrap herself in a wide waist wrapper; then he would draw close to her chest and breasts.'
