Period of nifaas for a woman who did not bleed for her previous pregnancy
Q: I wanted to know that if a woman had 15 days nifaas in her first childbirth and in the second not a drop of blood came but the in the third childbirth she had 50 days bleeding. What will be her nifaas? 15 days or does she have to pray 40 days qadha namaz as her previous nifaas was nill?
How should a woman count the days of Haidh?
Q: For counting the days of haidh (the number of days of bleeding) should
- the number of days be counted like 5 days or 7 days
-or should the number of hours be counted like 60 hours or 72 hours etc.
This is for if a woman bleeds for more than 10 days... then should she take her previous haidh's days? How should those previous days be counted? In hours or days?
Woman who has a set pattern experiencing irregular bleeding
Q: A ladies haidh pattern:
May - 8 days
June - 8 days
July - She had a ghusl on 9th day but bled on 11 and 13th day. So she took the extra day as istihaaza and followed the previous months habit and made qadha of one day salaah.
August - She had ghusl on 9th day and again she bled just over 10 days.
September - She bled just over 10 days. How would she regard her habit and because she is going over 10 days, must she take her habit as 8 days and continue making qadha every month.
