trueislam88 answered your question: I can’t find the hadith about long periods. A woman came to the Prophet and said her bleeding lasted for many days and he said that she should only miss her prayers for a certain number of days. Is anyone aware of this hadith?
Why are you searching hadith’s for answers ummhuraira? The Qur’an has all the answers. There is no other source, so says the Qur’an.
Asalaamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. I respect your opinion and your right to choose what you follow, however it says multiple times in the Qur’an to follow God and His messenger. If it were not for hadith, we would not have such a thorough understanding of women’s rights, gay rights, shariah, salat, and all sorts of other stuff. Qur’an is superior, obviously. It’s the word of God. However the Prophet SAWS was an exemplary human who God chose to send His word through. He had a much better understanding of Islam than any of us and therefore is a good example for us to follow.
