Narrated Umar ibn al-Khattab: Al-Harith ibn Abdullah ibn Aws said: I came to Umar ibn al-Khattab and asked him about a woman who has performed the (obligatory) circumambulation on the day of sacrifice, and then she menstruates. He said: She must perform the last circumambulation of the House (the Ka'bah). Al-Harith said: The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) told me the same thing. Umar said: May your hands fall down! You asked me about a thing that you had asked the Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) so that I might oppose him.
