The ruling on blood that exceeds the usual period due to birth control
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a woman who says that her menstruation lasts five or six days. After she used birth control, the menstruation of this questioner lasted five or six days. Then she used a contraceptive to delay pregnancy, as she says, and blood began to come to her four or five days before the expected time, but its color was different. Then, after that, blood of its usual color came down. She asks: Do I leave off the prayer and fasting for the four or five days along with the duration of the period? Or do I not leave off the prayer except for the duration of the period?
Answer:
If this blood is connected to the usual period with no break between them, then it is part of the usual period, and it has increased or changed because of the pills she is taking. As long as this blood is connected to the period with no break of purity or cleanliness between them, it is considered part of the period, having increased due to the meddling she did with herself, which is taking the pills, provided that the total does not exceed fifteen days. If it exceeds fifteen days, the excess beyond fifteen days is bleeding for which she does not leave off the prayer. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
