A fasting woman sees blood, but is not sure that it is menstruation

Question

If a woman sees blood but is not sure whether it is menstruation or not, what is the ruling on her fasting on that day?

Answer

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, sallallaahu 'alyhi wa sallam, is His slave and Messenger.

Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen  may  Allaah  have  mercy  upon  him said: "Her fasting on that day is valid as the basic principle is that there is no menstruation until she is sure that this is menstruation."

Allaah Knows best.
