The waiting period of a divorced woman who is experiencing post-natal bleeding

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, how does a woman observe her waiting period if she is divorced while experiencing post-natal bleeding?

Answer:
She waits for three days, excluding the day of Maghrib; she waits for three days after Maghrib. As for if she is divorced during menstruation, the majority of scholars hold that the divorce takes effect, but this menstrual period is not counted; rather, she waits for three menstrual periods after the one in which she was divorced.
