Sunan Abi Dawud: Book 1, Hadith 357

Mu’adhah said that ‘Aishah was asked about (washing) the clothes of a menstruating woman smeared with blood. She said: She should wash it; in case mark is not removed she should change it by applying some yellow color.

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَارِثِ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، حَدَّثَتْنِي أُمُّ الْحَسَنِ، – يَعْنِي جَدَّةَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الْعَدَوِيِّ – عَنْ مُعَاذَةَ، قَالَتْ سَأَلْتُ عَائِشَةَ – رضى الله عنها – عَنِ الْحَائِضِ يُصِيبُ ثَوْبَهَا الدَّمُ ‏.‏ قَالَتْ تَغْسِلُهُ فَإِنْ لَمْ يَذْهَبْ أَثَرُهُ فَلْتُغَيِّرْهُ بِشَىْءٍ مِنَ صُفْرَةٍ ‏.‏ قَالَتْ وَلَقَدْ كُنْتُ أَحِيضُ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ثَلاَثَ حِيَضٍ جَمِيعًا لاَ أَغْسِلُ لِي ثَوْبًا ‏.‏
