The questioner : After the passage of three or four days of her menstrual cycle, it stops and remains stopped for a period of one or two days, then returns to her on the sixth day approximately. The question she asks is: Is it obligatory for her to fast and pray during this period of cessation?
The Shaykh : Some scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) say that the cessation, even if it is only one day, is considered purity. Therefore, she must perform the full ritual bath and pray and fast if that is in Ramadan, even if the menstruation returns after one or two days.
And some scholars say that this is not truly purity, but rather dryness. Therefore, she is not considered pure until the menstruation stops completely.
And this, and Allah knows best, is closer to the truth, because it is customary for a woman during her menstruation to experience dryness and desiccation, and this is not considered purity. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah reward you.
