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

\n\tSalam. My nikah has been (faskhnikah) dissolved under Islamic law on 3rd March 2017. Now I know my iddah is that I must pass 3 menstrual cycles but what do I do if I haven't had a monthly menstrual cycle since February 2017. As I suffer from chronic Anaemia I assume my iron may be too low which is why I have not had my expected menstrual cycle on or around 5th March, & no monthly cycle at at all up to this day.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tDo I carry on waiting for a menstrual cycle to begin which I have no idea at 
\n\tall when it could be or do I start counting my 3 months from the 3rd March 2017?<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

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

\n\t\"Bismillah\"<\/a>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe iddat<\/em> (waiting period) of a woman who does not experience menstruation due to childhood, menopause, or a woman who reached the age of puberty without experiencing haidh<\/em> will be three consecutive Islamic months. [1]<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAccording to the Hanafi<\/em> school of thought, a woman who experiences menstruation for three days or more, and then for some reason her menstruation stopped, she will have to wait until she starts menstruating again or reaches the age of menopause.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAccording to the Maliki<\/em> school of thought, she will have to wait for one year.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe age of menopause according to the Hanafi<\/em>jurists is thirty years for a woman who never experienced menstruation, and fifty-five years for the one who did experience menstruation, but stopped due to a reason.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tDue to difficulty and hardship being endured if a person was to wait for such a lengthy period of time, many contemporary Ulama<\/em> have given the ruling on the Maliki school of thought.<\/a> <\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tHowever, in order for a woman to act upon this ruling of one year, she must first resort to medication so her menstruation commences.<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIf menstruation appears during this period of one year, then the waiting period of three menstruations should be observed. [2]<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tOnly Allah Ta’ala knows best<\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
