The Increase of Menstruation Beyond the Customary Period and the Rulings on Tawaf

The questioner:
The questioner says: My wife’s customary period is seven days, but the blood has increased beyond seven days. Now, regarding tawaf, if it exceeds seven days, should she take pills, then perform wudu and perform tawaf around the House, or is that not permissible?

The Shaykh:
The period increases and decreases; it may be seven days, eight days, or five days. But do not hasten until you are purified. You see the purity either by the white discharge, or by wiping with a piece of cotton or something else and seeing that there is nothing in it, meaning you see no yellow or brown discharge.

Another questioner:
But this time, Your Honor.

The Shaykh:
She smiles, prays, and performs tawaf, and praise be to Allah. Or she takes pills or something that stops the blood, if it is possible to obtain something that stops the blood, there is no harm. If the blood stops, whether by pills or by an injection, and the blood stops and she is clean, she prays and performs tawaf. The customary period continues and becomes fast, then it remains with her for a while, or ten or eleven days, becoming a period that causes her to stop until the fifth day, or four days, and she sees the purity, takes a bath, prays, and fasts. Yes.

Another questioner:
I say that this time we used the stopping pills, but they only made it worse.

The Shaykh:
It is Allah’s decree; do not use them, let it remain until it stops.

Another questioner:
Is it considered blood of corruption or blood of menstruation? It is blood of menstruation.

The Shaykh:
Where they must ripen for Allah.

Another questioner:
Establishment.

The Shaykh:
It increases, it spreads, yes.
