Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Her mother says: Honorable Shaykh, I will, if Allah wills, go for Hajj and I will fast the remaining days of the ten days. But if I use period-delaying pills to gain the reward, is that permissible for me?
Answer:
If it does not harm her health and does not result in any negative effect, then there is nothing wrong with it. However, it is better that she does not resort to it. If the blood comes, she breaks her fast, and if it does not come, she continues fasting. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you
