حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو (١) الْمُغِيرَةِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْأَوْزَاعِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ، عَنْ جَدَّتِهِ أُمِّ سُلَيْمٍ، قَالَتْ: كَانَتْ مُجَاوِرَةَ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَكَانَتْ تَدْخُلُ عَلَيْهَا، فَدَخَلَ (٢) النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَتْ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَرَأَيْتَ إِذَا رَأَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ أَنَّ زَوْجَهَا يُجَامِعُهَا فِي الْمَنَامِ أَتَغْتَسِلُ؟ فَقَالَتْ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ: تَرِبَتْ يَدَاكِ يَا أُمَّ سُلَيْمٍ، فَضَحْتِ النِّسَاءَ عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَتْ أُمُّ سُلَيْمٍ: إِنَّ اللهَ لَا، ، يَسْتَحِي (١) مِنَ الْحَقِّ، وَإِنَّا إِنْ نَسْأَلِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، عَمَّا أَشْكَلَ عَلَيْنَا خَيْرٌ، مِنْ أَنْ نَكُونَ مِنْهُ عَلَى عَمْيَاءَ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِأُمِّ سَلَمَةَ: بَلْ أَنْتِ تَرِبَتْ يَدَاكِ، نَعَمْ يَا أُمَّ سُلَيْمٍ: " عَلَيْهَا الْغُسْلُ إِذَا وَجَدَتِ الْمَاءَ "، فَقَالَتْ أُمُّ سَلَمَةَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَهَلْ لِلْمَرْأَةِ مَاءٌ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " فَأَنَّى يُشْبِهُهَا وَلَدُهَا هُنَّ شَقَائِقُ الرِّجَالِ " (٢)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Umm Sulaym (may Allah be pleased with her) that once she asked the Prophet (ﷺ): "If a woman sees a dream like a man sees, what is the ruling?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "If a woman sees such a dream and experiences discharge, then she should perform ghusl (ritual bath)." Umm al-Mu'mineen Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: "Umm Sulaym! May your hands be dusted, you have disgraced all women in front of the Prophet (ﷺ)." Umm Sulaym (may Allah be pleased with her) replied: "Allah does not shy away from the truth. Asking the Prophet (ﷺ) about something good is better for us than remaining ignorant about it." The Prophet (ﷺ) said to Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her): "Rather, may your hands be dusted. Yes, Umm Sulaym! If a woman sees such a dream, then ghusl becomes obligatory upon her." Umm Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) submitted: "O Messenger of Allah! Does a woman also have fluid?" The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Then why does the child resemble the woman? Women are the counterparts of men."
