Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A woman asks, and she says that her period came to her for the first time after childbirth, and she stayed with the period for eleven days,
The Shaykh:
More.
The questioner:
after more than one day.
The Shaykh:
Eleven days.
The questioner:
And her usual period is three days, so what is the ruling on the extra days?
The Shaykh:
Yes, the custom may increase. Praise be to Allah. Because the custom may increase, it may decrease, and it may shift; the custom does not remain constant, it changes. And they said that the maximum duration of menstruation is five months; it may increase up to five months.
