What is the ruling on the blood that comes from a woman during the early period of pregnancy? Is it necessary to perform only the ablution from it, or is the full ritual bath necessary?

The questioner : I am asking about the blood, or the blood that comes from a woman during the early period of pregnancy. Is it necessary to perform only the ablution from it, or is the full ritual bath necessary?

The Shaykh : The general rule is that a pregnant woman does not menstruate, and any blood that appears from her is blood of corruption. It does not necessitate the full ritual bath, nor does it make prayer forbidden, nor does it prevent her husband from having intercourse with her or otherwise. Her ruling is the same as that of women in a state of ritual purity. However, she performs the ablution for prayer when its time enters, takes precautions, and then prays. She prays the obligatory and voluntary prayers until the time of the afternoon prayer enters. When the time of the afternoon prayer enters, she renews the process once again, and so on, renewing it for the time of every prayer. Yes.

The questioner : May Allah reward you, O honorable Shaykh, and may Allah bless you and your knowledge, and benefit the Muslims through you.
