Post-natal bleeding if it exceeds sixty days

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A woman gave birth for the first time, and her post-natal bleeding continued for more than sixty days. Her family’s usual duration is between fifty and sixty days. What should she do? Is the excess over sixty days considered post-natal bleeding or irregular non-menstrual bleeding?

Answer:
The ruling here is that post-natal bleeding does not exceed fifty days. Anything beyond that is not post-natal bleeding, but rather bleeding. So she prays and fasts. Yes.
