The ruling on prayer and fasting for a woman whose menstruation lasts twenty days

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This is a questioner asking, and she says: A woman experiences menstruation for twenty days, and the blood is black in color for the entire duration. Does she leave off the prayer and fasting?

Answer:
No. Menstruation has a minimum and a maximum. The minimum is one day and one night, and the maximum is fifteen days. If the blood continues with her and exceeds fifteen days, then when the fifteen days are completed, she takes a full ritual bath and fasts and prays, even if the blood is still flowing, because it has become clear that it is blood of corruption and not menstrual blood. Yes.
