Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if a miscarriage occurs after two months have passed, the jurists hold that the blood that comes out is not post-natal bleeding. But is it considered menstruation for the woman if it coincides with the time of her usual period?
Answer:
No, this is considered bleeding and is not considered menstruation. If the child or the pregnancy is less than eighty-one days old, then the blood is considered bleeding, not menstruation or post-natal bleeding; it is bleeding. So she prays; she does not leave off the prayer during it. Yes, because it is not menstruation and not post-natal bleeding. Yes.
