Question:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

My wife menstruates (normal flow) for 3 days thereafter there is NO blood then all off a sudden she may get a slight spotting and will continue the odd occasion for the remainder of her cycle.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Should she class the spotting as menstrual, or can she perform ghusl and continue her praying?<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Answer<\/strong>:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The fact is that the period point is still classed as all one period.<\/span><\/p>\n

Though your wife has a regular flow for three days, this is the minimum requirement for the validation of the menses cycle:[1]<\/a> the maximum is 10 days[2] <\/a>– anything in between, even if she sees spotting, but there is up to the point where it is clear, this is classed as all one period.<\/span><\/p>\n

Therefore, she should wait until there is no more spotting and then continue her prayers.<\/span><\/p>\n
