A woman who has reached sixty years of age and blood continues to come from her; does she fast?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Eid Abbasi : A woman who has reached an age of more than sixty years, and then blood comes from her in an irregular manner; does she fast?
The Shaykh : It is presumed that she has reached the age of menopause; therefore, she does not see menstruation. If she has deviated from the general custom of women, and she continues to menstruate regularly as is the custom of women, then in that case, she refers this blood to the known conditions of menstrual blood. The most likely case is that this blood from her is irregular non-menstrual bleeding, not menstrual blood; especially since she is of this age, the age of sixty. The most likely case is that she has reached menopause regarding menstruation. In this case, this blood is irregular non-menstrual bleeding; therefore, it has no relation to fasting at that time; that is, it does not prevent her from fasting.
Yes.
