Fasting and periods.

Hi,

I needed some help regarding this.
What if your period cycle ends, and the day you are suppose to perform the purification bath, you start bleeding again. would be called as periods? Can you fast the next day or not?

Re: Fasting and periods.

yeah thats still your period, its quite common for them to stop half way between for a day. wait until it ends again and do the purification bath again.

Re: Fasting and periods.

But what if it has exceeded the 10 days?

Re: Fasting and periods.

need to know this too

Re: Fasting and periods.

Im like highly confused, whther to fast tomrrow or not.
What if the periods haven't stopped properly, the discharge in the past 2 days was dry and all
and then later you start bleeding properly. sorry for being so blunt.
and what if tis the 12th day
should you start fasting and praying?

Re: Fasting and periods.

if you are bleeding you cant fast/pray as far as i know.

Also have you bled for 12 days before? its quite unusual to bleed for 12 days ish.

sometimes u ovulate twice in a month and get two periods.

with regards to fasting i dont think you can if u are bleeding.

Re: Fasting and periods.

As far as I know...if you're bleeding you can't fast. You just have to wait till it stops, then you take your bath and then you can fast etc.
Btw have you had a 12 day period before?

Re: Fasting and periods.

Yes, I did.
Its because I have PCOS.

Re: Fasting and periods.

Thqanks for the replies guys. though I am still confused.

Re: Fasting and periods.

if ur period exceed 10 days if u have not suffer before so i think its nt normal u should go to doctor and yeah the blood will stop than u can pray and fast if there is red blood than .. in other case if the bleeding is not normal like bleeding every day so thats mean u r sick and in this case u can fast and pray but u must nt pray and fast on the date of ur period is start for e.g if ur period is start from 9 sep so the next month on date 9 .. u can do this if the bleeding is the whole month than ... this all i asked my Islamic teacher becz my sis suffered from the situation ..

Re: Fasting and periods.

and yeah Istihaadah (non-menstrual vaginal bleeding) does not have any effect on the validity of the fast.

Re: Fasting and periods.

well what i read abt it was, u shud have an idea of how long ur periods usually stay.For instance if it stays for 7 days , the 8th day u can fast ,the blood wont be the one from the periods.Longest one must wait is 11 days (thats what i read)

Re: Fasting and periods.

Thanks guys.
I guess I can fast.

Re: Fasting and periods.

u can purify after 8 days. coz thats normal duration. rest is abnormal/bimari. so u can fast.

Re: Fasting and periods.

Okay, you said you suffer from PCOS...I guess because the 12 day duration isn't your normal period then you can fast after the duration of your normal period regardless of whether you are bleeding or not.
