Haiz, Istihaazah & Nifaas

Q: In sharia, is menstrual bleeding defined as blood that comes from the uterus, regardless of how it was caused? Because the contraceptive pill stops my body’s natural hormones and instead, the bleeding that occurs is caused by the medication and not by my body’s natural processes.

In both cases, the blood is from the uterus, but with the pill it is caused artifically, and without the pill it is caused naturally. So is the blood caused by taking the pill haidh or istihaada?

Q: If one has sexual intercourse during haidh, and the blood is red then 4.364g in gold has to be given. To who must this penalty be paid and under what (sadaqah)?

Q: It was the time of my period and I got a peach discharge, it wasn't a dark peach. So I asked my teacher and she said that it is my period. (I don’t get any colour discharge during my tuhur period). so I took it as my period, I never discharged more of this colour, I discharged clear and white. I only started bleeding 3 days after I saw the peach discharge. Please advise whether the 3 days in which I saw nothing was actually my period, or did my period only start when I started bleeding. This happened during Ramadhaan.

Q: Is it OK to apply mehndi on one's hands while in haidh?

Q: I know that kaffaarah fasts have to be kept consecutively, with no break in between. My question is that if a female has to keep kaffaarah fasts, then how will she keep them consecutively, taking into consideration that her haidh will come between the fasts?

Q: In regards to my menses, I have a 28 day cycle... give or take. If I wipe and find a little change of colour on the toilet paper, I know I'll get my menses a couple of days later. Unfortunately, at the moment I've been having IVF treatments and I just stopped taking hormone replacement tablets and on to taking my injections, however, the nurse told me that my hormone medication and injections will overlap for 3 days and then I'll get my menses.

Now, this is the part I get confused because, the day she said that, which was a Wednesday, I had a few days before I thought I'd get my period, but on that day she said that, I saw a slight colour change on the toilet paper, anyway I still kept on praying because the day she said I get them was not the day I saw it, as I had a couple of more days before and I'm glad I did continue praying, because every other time I wiped it was clear and this happened to me for a couple of days, but yesterday, there were spots of blood on my underwear so, I washed and still prayed Dhur, but I again saw spots on my fresh underwear after changing them and now it was closer to the time when she said I was suppose to get them so, I didn't pray my maghrib, Isha or today's Fajr and now it's clear again and I've missed 3 salats and I'm upset!

What do I do in this situation and how can I make up these salats?

P.S. I feel if I do pray at the moment, I feel like I'm doing the wrong thing and if I don't pray at the moment, I feel like I'm still doing the wrong thing. 

Q: I want to ask regarding praying isha at fajr time due to menses. Last night I had my menses and then I woke up at 4 am. The menses was gone. I did ghusl and prayed isha. When I finished praying, I realized that I prayed it at fajr time. Will my prayer be accepted due to this case?

Q: Can a woman in haidh recite the following in the morning and evening:

1. the ayat شهد الله 

2. the three quls

3. ayatul kursi

Q: Before haidh I secreted a clear white discharge that later on turns very light brown in colour, is that regarded as haidh or should I just renew my wudhu?

Q: Will yellow discharge before haidh be regarded as haidh if it's within the ten day period? Or is it only brown discharge that will be regarded as haidh before bleeding?
