Narrated to us Abu Kurayb, narrated to us Ibn Abi Za'idah, from Hajjaj and Ibn Abi Ghaniyyah, from Thabit ibn Ubayd, from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad, from 'A'ishah, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, ordered me to hand him the khumrah (small prayer mat) from the mosque. I said, "Indeed, I am menstruating." He said, "Hand it to me, for menstruation is not in your hand."
