There is no Defined Minimum Period for Postnatal Bleeding

 


Question:

Is it permissible for the woman who has postnatal bleeding to pray and fast if she becomes clean before forty days?
Answer:

If a woman with postnatal bleeding becomes clean before forty days, it is an obligation upon her to perform Ghusl, pray and fast in Ramadhan, and it becomes permissible for her husband to have sexual intercourse with her, according to the consensus of the scholars. There is no defined minimum period postnatal bleeding. And Allaah is the Granter of success.
