Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : His EminenceThe Shaykh : A woman in her eighth month, who is in the month of Ramadan, experienced bleeding. Then she delivered the fetus fourteen days into the month of Ramadan, due to a cesarean section. Does she have to make up the days during which the blood came, or not, even though she was fasting?

The Shaykh : She does not have to make up the days she fasted before delivering the fetus, because this blood is not post-natal bleeding, nor is it menstrual blood. Scholars call this blood and its like blood of corruption, because whatever does not qualify as menstruation or post-natal bleeding is blood of corruption.
The student: Peace be upon you.

The Shaykh : And upon you peace.
The student: In the books, Shaykh, by car.

The Shaykh : Okay, please, may Allah reward you with good. Bring a carton now to distribute among the brothers. The brother just brought books on Hajj; we will give them to the one who wants to perform Hajj, and to the one who is not performing Hajj.
The student: He gives them to others.

The Shaykh : No.
The student: ...

The Shaykh : So there is no, there is no other question.
The student: It is their turn.

The Shaykh : Before the birth of the child.
