Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Eminence the Shaykh, may Allah preserve you, in our time there are many problems for women regarding menstruation. What is the direct cause of that?
Answer:
It appears, and Allah knows best, that the many actions women take, such as taking pills, may cause changes. It may change because of the IUD, it may change because of the pills, it may be due to illnesses, she may be afflicted with an illness, she may be afflicted with a miscarriage or something else. The point is that if she is afflicted with any of these, she must adhere to the usual practice: she does not pray and she does not fast. If the bleeding exceeds that, it is considered irregular non-menstrual bleeding (istihadah) due to either the pills, the IUD, or incidental illnesses.
