Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and all his Companions. How does a woman act if she sees menstruation for the first time?
The Shaykh : She sits for the minimum duration, which is always a day and a night. If she sees it on the second day, she performs the full ritual bath and prays.
The questioner : Is it a condition that she sees it on the second day? Meaning, is it obligatory that she sees it, and if she does not see it, she does not perform the full ritual bath and does not pray?
The Shaykh : It is not a condition. If...
The questioner : If she sits...
The Shaykh : A day and a night, the minimum.
The questioner : Yes, then...
The Shaykh : Then she performs the full ritual bath, fasts, and prays.
The questioner : All right.
The Shaykh : How many times does she do this?
The questioner : She does this the first time. If the blood continues with her, she observes the blood on the second and third days. If it stops, she performs the full ritual bath, fasts, and prays.
The Shaykh : Yes, she fasts and prays.
The questioner : This. She finds it on the first day. The first day. The first day.
The Shaykh : A day and a night, then she performs the full ritual bath and prays. If it stops...
The questioner : The second time. Good.
The Shaykh : Good, then...
The questioner : Then she sits and calculates this duration between the minimum...
The Shaykh : How many times does she do this?
The questioner : Three times.
The Shaykh : Three times, good.
The questioner : If it repeats three times, in the fourth month, 'Abd al-Rahman...
The Shaykh : She sits for the repeated duration, good. If it repeats for five days...
The questioner : Five days in the first, six in the second, and seven in the third. How many days does she sit in the fourth?
The Shaykh : Five days, because that is the repeated one. Do you agree?
The questioner : Seven days did not repeat three times.
The Shaykh : Now I say the example: she menstruated in the first month for five days, in the second month for six, and in the third month for seven. So how many days does she sit in the fourth? Five, because five is what repeated three times. Therefore, her custom is five.
