Answers: 13Subcategories: 2Menstruation and Post-Natal bleeding
She was not certain that her period had ended, and she prayed and fasted
142,825If the bleeding lasts for more than 15 days is it still regarded as menstruation, and can she fast?
143,772Her periods stopped but a little bit of blood that was pale in colour came out
15,349She purified herself following her menses then she saw some drops of blood
18,180Her period comes twice a month – should she stop praying and fasting each time?
75,748Why Can’t You Fast on Your Period?
Women can’t fast during their period out of Allah’s mercy toward them, because loss of blood weakens them. If a woman were to fast on her period, she would be weakened both by menstruation and by fasting, in which case fasting would be an unfair burden and may even be harmful.186,64440-Day Rule after Birth in Islam: When Can Women Pray and Fast?
If a woman in nifas sees that she has become pure before 40 days are over, then she should do ghusl and pray and fast, and her husband may have intercourse with her.256,370Brownish discharge before one becomes pure is regarded as part of the period
70,307Should You Continue Fasting If You Get Your Period Just Before Sunset?
It is haram for a Muslim woman to continue fasting when she is menstruating. If she gets her period while fasting, her fast is spoiled, even if the blood comes a moment before sunset, and she has to make that up if it was an obligatory fast.428,960Does Bleeding Following Menstruation Invalidate the Fast?
Any bleeding that resumes after the period is over is not menstrual blood. So you can pray, fast, do tawaf or any other acts of worship.91,803
