The Ruling on Praying When Menstruation Days Are Extended
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, I am suffering, O Honorable Shaykh, from an extension of my menstrual cycle days, where they reach fourteen days at the beginning. She mentions that her usual cycle is seven days. How should she deal with the prayer in this case? May you be rewarded.
Answer:
As long as the blood is flowing from her and it is the known menstrual blood, identified by its smell, color, and warmth, she is considered to be menstruating, even if it exceeds her usual custom. This is because the custom may increase or decrease, and it may come earlier or later. However, the criterion is the nature of this blood. She must refrain from prayer as long as the blood is flowing, even if it reaches fifteen days. This is because the minimum duration of menstruation is one day and one night, and the maximum duration of menstruation is fifteen days. Yes.
