قُلْتُ لِأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) إِنَّ الْمُغِيرَةَ بْنَ سَعِيدٍ رَوَى عَنْكَ أَنَّكَ قُلْتَ لَهُ إِنَّ الْحَائِضَ تَقْضِي الصَّلَاةَ فَقَالَ مَا لَهُ لَا وَفَّقَهُ اللَّهُ إِنَّ امْرَأَةَ عِمْرَانَ نَذَرَتْ مَا فِي بَطْنِهَا مُحَرَّراً وَ الْمُحَرَّرُ لِلْمَسْجِدِ يَدْخُلُهُ ثُمَّ لَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْهُ أَبَداً فَلَمَّا وَضَعَتْها قالَتْ رَبِّ إِنِّي وَضَعْتُها أُنْثى... وَ لَيْسَ الذَّكَرُ كَالْأُنْثى فَلَمَّا وَضَعَتْهَا أَدْخَلَتْهَا الْمَسْجِدَ فَسَاهَمَتْ عَلَيْهَا الْأَنْبِيَاءُ فَأَصَابَتِ الْقُرْعَةُ زَكَرِيَّا وَ كَفَّلَهَا زَكَرِيَّا فَلَمْ تَخْرُجْ مِنَ الْمَسْجِدِ حَتَّى بَلَغَتْ فَلَمَّا بَلَغَتْ مَا تَبْلُغُ النِّسَاءُ خَرَجَتْ فَهَلْ كَانَتْ تَقْدِرُ عَلَى أَنْ تَقْضِيَ تِلْكَ الْأَيَّامَ الَّتِي خَرَجَتْ وَ هِيَ عَلَيْهَا أَنْ تَكُونَ الدَّهْرَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ .
Translation
Al Husayn Bin Muhammad, from Moalla, from Al Washa, from Aban Bin Usman, from Ismail Al Ju’fy who said, ‘I said to Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup>, ‘Al-Mugheira Bin Saeed reported from you<sup>asws</sup> that you<sup>asws</sup> said to him: ‘The menstruating woman would make up for the <span class="iTxt">Salaat</span>’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘What is the matter with him? May Allah<sup>azwj</sup> not Reconcile him. The wife of Imran<sup>as</sup> vowed what was in her belly as a dedication, and the one dedicated to the Masjid would enter into it, then would not come out from it, ever. <span class="ibTxt"><a href="/#/books/quran:3#h36"><a href="/books/quran:3#h36">[3:36]</a></a> So when she gave birth to it, she said: My Lord! Surely I have brought it forth a female – (and Allah was more Knowing of what she gave birth to) - and the male is not like the female</span>. So when she had given birth to her<sup>as</sup> (Maryam<sup>as</sup>, she entered her<sup>asws</sup> into the Masjid. So the Prophets<sup>as</sup> drew lots over her<sup>as</sup>, and the vote came out for Zakariyya<sup>as</sup>, and Zakariyya<sup>as</sup> took the responsibility for her. Thus, she<sup>as</sup> did not come out from the Masjid until she<sup>as</sup> was an adult. So when she<sup>as</sup> became an adult to what the women tend to reach in adulthood, she<sup>as</sup> went out. So was she<sup>as</sup> able upon making up for those days which she went out, and it was upon her<sup>as</sup> that she<sup>as</sup> would happen to be in the Masjid for ever?’
