Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: A woman was in postpartum bleeding, then she became pure and prayed, then after a period the menses came back to her, then after that she became pure and prayed, then intermittent blood started coming out of her. What is the ruling in that?
The Shaykh:
If the blood of a woman in postpartum bleeding stops completely during the forty days, she takes a full ritual bath and prays and fasts. If the blood returns to her during the forty days, she leaves off the prayer and fasting and considers herself to be in postpartum bleeding until she completes the forty days. When the forty days are completed, the postpartum bleeding ends.
The presenter:
Yes. May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says:
The Shaykh:
And what she fasted and prayed during the period of purity and cleanliness is valid; she does not have to make it up. Yes.
