3ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ رَفَعَهُ عَنْ زُرْعَةَ عَنْ سَمَاعَةَ قَالَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ جَارِيَةٍ حَاضَتْ أَوَّلَ حَيْضِهَا فَدَامَ دَمُهَا ثَلاَثَةَ أَشْهُرٍ وَهِيَ لاَ تَعْرِفُ أَيَّامَ أَقْرَائِهَا فَقَالَ أَقْرَاؤُهَا مِثْلُ أَقْرَاءِ نِسَائِهَا فَإِنْ كَانَتْ نِسَاؤُهَا مُخْتَلِفَاتٍ فَأَكْثَرُ جُلُوسِهَا عَشَرَةُ أَيَّامٍ وَأَقَلُّهُ ثَلاَثَةُ أَيَّامٍ.

3. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad in a marfu’ manner from Zur’ah, from Sama’ah who has said the following: “I once asked him (the Imam) , about the case of a girl who experiences blood discharge for the first time. It continues for three months and she does not know the duration the discharge-free time of her Hayd (menses). He (the Imam) said, ‘Her discharge-free time is like those of the women from her relatives. If the case with the women of her relatives is different, then the maximum for her is ten days and the minimum is three days.’”
