Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He asks: Is a woman in post-natal bleeding forbidden to her husband in the same way a menstruating woman is?

Answer:
Yes, post-natal bleeding carries the same ruling as menstruation. Therefore, intercourse is forbidden; intercourse is forbidden during post-natal bleeding just as it is forbidden during menstruation, without distinction. As for intimacy without intercourse, there is no harm in it during menstruation or post-natal bleeding. There is no issue with intimacy without intercourse; kissing, lying with her, and touching her are all permissible. Yes.
