Bleeding after the minimum period of purity are menses Fatwa No: 91497
- Fatwa Date:25-3-2006
I have amenia and this caused inconsistency in my menses. I had blood discharges during the first six days of Ramadhaan, and then I had blood discharges again on the 24th of Ramadhaan which lasted for the same period of menses. So I was confused as to whether they were menses or blood outside the monthly periods.
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. We ask Allaah to exalt his mention as well as that of his family and all his companions.
The period between the sixth day and the twenty fourth day is a period which exceeds the duration of the minimum period of purity between the two monthly periods (i.e. fifteen days), therefore, this blood which you had was menses and not bleeding outside your monthly menses.
Allaah Knows best.
