Leaving prayer due to bleeding during pregnancy
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Fatwa number ( 19237 )
Q: I am a woman who hadan ectopic pregnancy; and as a result of this pregnancy, I experienced bleeding for 36 days, during which I did not perform the obligatory prayerbecause I initially believed it was my menstrual period. However, the situation exceeded its normal limits, so I went to the hospital, and they did not discover the issue until 36 days had passed. Please note that the bleeding and pain were continuous. Then, an abdominal surgery was performed to remove the fetus. After the surgery, the bleeding continued for one week and then stopped. Please inform us, may Allah reward you with good, about the ruling on the missed prayers during that period, and if there is a requirement to make them up, how is that done?
After the Committee studied the question, it answered that it is obligatory for you to make up the obligatory prayers that you missed, according to your ability, every day and at any
time, and the make-up must be in order. For example, you pray Fajr, then Zuhr, then 'Asr, then Maghrib, then 'Isha' in this order, and you are not bound by a specific time until you complete the prayers you missed. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
