The Woman Who Confused Menstrual Blood with Irregular Non-Menstrual Bleeding

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questions that have come to me, Honorable Shaykh, say to the sister who is asking: If a woman is confused about the blood and cannot distinguish whether it is menstrual blood or irregular bleeding, what should she consider it to be? And if she is in a state of worship for which she is rewarded.

Answer:
Menstruation has characteristics: the characteristic of smell, the characteristic of color, and the fact that it occurs on the days of her usual cycle. This is considered menstruation if it bears the characteristics of menstruation: its smell is the smell of menstruation, or its color is black, or it is thick rather than liquid. This is considered menstruation because it bears the characteristics of menstruation. This is called the one who can distinguish. If she cannot distinguish, she reverts to the custom she was accustomed to for menstruation before she was afflicted with this confusion. If she has no custom and no ability to distinguish, she considers the majority of menstruation to be six days or seven days of every month. Yes.
