2. If I do wudu before fard ghusl do I have to repeat wudu after fard ghusl? As the wudu made before was during impurity.

Spotting in the haidh period

Submitted by user2 on Wed, 2018-09-05 08:15

Q: My haiz cycle is normally 9-10 days. However my last haiz cycle before Ramadhaan was 7 days complete. During Ramadhaan my haiz stopped on the 8th day and after ghusl I continued my salaah. Then it started again after 3/4 salaah times. This continued till the 10th day. Always there will be hours of no haiz. I kept making ghusl as I did not wish to make my salaah qaza. On the morning of the 10th day I again made ghusl as I was clean the whole night. However 2 hours later I saw a small blood dot (smaller than a mustard seed). Honestly I was tired at this point and ignored it. The rest of the day was clear and the 240 hours complete. Now thinking back I am not sure I made the right decision to ignore it. Was I wrong? What do I do? And what of my salaah and fasts. 

Women wearing attractive clothing when leaving the home

Submitted by user2 on Tue, 2018-09-04 07:44

Q: Is it permissible for women to wear Cardigans over their abayas. These cardigans have floral designs? I told my wife that this is not allowed because its attractive. She said some of her teachers in the Madrasah said it is permissible. I have increased my Mujahada and Duaa in trying to reform my wife. But these Scholars now a days cut off my legs. Mufti Saab say my wife is insisting in wearing these floral cardigans which are attractive in nature with her abaya and stuff and I say no to her she listens but then she gets upset and nags with me. She will remain sad the whole day. Should I not give in? I want to deal with her in kindness but not at the cost of breaking the commands of Allah Ta'ala. Please explain to me in detail.

Seeing brown discharge after the days of haidh

Submitted by user2 on Mon, 2018-07-30 07:39

Q: My last haiz (or what I considered my haiz) was June 28 - July 4 and remained a brown colour throughout. It looked like discharge and for 1 or 2 days had red streaks of blood. Then it continued as brown discharge/ blood , im not sure. Today (July 15) I have got the same brown discharge / blood. But I have not had a 15 day gap of purity so I have continued to pray as I think I have istihaza.

1. Am I right in thinking I should be praying now?

2. Should I have prayed during the first time I experienced the brown discharge / blood

3. I have read online that there must be a 15 day or 10 day gap of purity - I would like to know where the evidence for this is.

4. I also heard the ruling for istihazah is to clean with instinja, I do this but still blood remains, so I pray anyways. Is my prayer valid or must I repeat them once I am pure?
