It is understood from the that "al-dil‘" (the rib/bone) refers to a stick. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, commanded to scrape the menstrual blood with it to remove the solidified part, then to follow it with water to remove its trace. The addition of sidr is for extreme purification, otherwise, water alone suffices.
