The ruling on a woman fasting if she feels menstruation before sunset

The Shaykh:
May Allah greet you and bless you.

The presenter:
Our dear listeners, the conversation continues regarding menstruation, post-natal bleeding, pregnancy, and the rulings related to them. We posed a number of questions to the Honorable Shaykh, and today we continue with these questions on these topics.

The questioner:
And we begin, saying in the name of Allah: If a woman, Honorable Shaykh, feels the emergence of blood but does not see it before sunset, what is the ruling on her fasting on that day?

The Shaykh:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad. May Allah send prayers and blessings upon his family and all his Companions. As for what follows, some scholars have mentioned that if she feels the transition of menstruation and feels in her back the pain that a menstruating woman feels, then she is considered to be menstruating even if nothing has come out of her. But the second opinion, which is the correct one, if Allah wills, is that the criterion is its emergence. Yes. So if it emerges, the rulings follow it. As for as long as it has not emerged, it is not considered, and her fasting is valid, if Allah wills. But if she makes it up as a precaution and to avoid the disagreement, that is better. Yes.
