Is it permissible for a woman to leave off the prayer if blood comes from her one or two days before delivery?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : His EminenceThe Shaykh : It is widespread among many women that before their delivery, even if it is one or two days, when the blood comes out, they leave off the prayer. Is this correct? And if it is not correct, do they make up the prayer?
The Shaykh : The scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) say: Post-natal bleeding is the blood that comes out with the delivery. Post-natal bleeding is the blood that comes out with the delivery or one or two days before it, along with the labor pains. So if she feels the labor pains and the blood begins to come out with them, it is post-natal bleeding, and she does not pray, even if it is one or two days before the child is born. Yes.
