Hadith 33876
Yahya related to me from Malik from Sumayy, the mawla of Abu Bakr
ibn Abd ar-Rahman that al-Qaqa ibn Hakim and Zayd ibn Aslam sent him
to Said ibn al-Musayyab to ask how a woman who was bleeding as if
menstruating should do ghusl. Said said, "She does a ghusl to cover
from the end of one period to the end of the next, and does wudu for
every prayer, and if bleeding overtakes her she should bind her
private parts."
Muwatta Malik Book 2, Hadith 107

Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa from his
father from Zaynab bint Abu Salama that she saw Zaynab bint Jahsh, the
wife of Abd ar-Rahman ibn Awf, and she used to bleed as if
menstruating. She would do ghusl and pray. Muwatta Malik Book 2, Hadith 106

Yahya related to me from Malik from Hisham ibn Urwa that his
father said, "A woman who bleeds as if menstruating only has to do one
ghusl, and then after that she does wudu for each prayer."
Yahya said that Malik said, "The position with us is that when a woman
who bleeds as if menstruating starts to do the prayer again, her
husband can have sexual intercourse with her. Similarly, if a woman
who has given birth sees blood after she has reached the fullest
extent that bleeding normally restrains women, her husband can have
sexual intercourse with her and she is in the same position as a woman
who bleeds as if menstruating."
Yahya said that Malik said,
"The position with us concerning a woman who bleeds as if menstruating
is founded on the hadith of Hisham ibn Urwa from his father, and it is
what I prefer the most of what I have heard about the matter." Muwatta Malik Book 2, Hadith 108
