Question
Askm, at the end of my period the discharge becomes very faint yellow which looks white to the naked eye but looks faint yellow in light. It's not like egg yolk lighter then lemon yellow. Then I get the clear discharge between 9-11 days. My cycle is 22-24 days. So can I ignore the light yellow discharge. Plz advice and resume my prayers.
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad 
is His slave and Messenger.
It appears that you are afflicted with Waswasah (intrusive thoughts or whispers). You must ignore these thoughts, turn away from them, and pay no attention to them. Getting carried away with such doubts will lead you to great harm. As for this discharge that appears under normal circumstances as white, it seems to be the natural moisture of the vagina, not the yellowish discharge. Therefore, you must purify yourself when the bleeding stops and the vagina becomes clean from any blood, yellowish discharge, and brownish discharge. Lastly, you should ignore this discharge that appears white to the naked eye and not consider it menstruation.
Allah knows best.
