If the Woman has postnatal bleeding during the 8th Day of Thul-Hijjah and she becomes pure after ten Days
Question :
If a woman with postnatal bleeding begins her bleeding stage on the day of Tarwiyyah (8th of Thul-Hijjah) and she completes the pillars of Hajj other than Taeaf and Sa'y but she notices that she initially becomes pure after 10 days, does she clean herself, bathe and perform the remaining pillar, which is the Tawaf of Hajj?
Answer:
Yes, if she gets postnatal bleeding on the 8th, for example, she may perform Hajj and stand with the people at 'Arafat and Muzdalifah. She may also do whatever the people do of stoning the pillars, cutting her hair, sacrificing an animal and other things. The only thing that remains due on her is the Tawaf and Sa'y, which she delays until she becomes pure. Then, when she becomes pure after 10 days or more or less, she bathes, prays, fasts and performs Tawaf and Sa'y. There is no minimum limit for the time of postnatal bleeding. She may become pure in 10 days or less than that or more. However, its end is 40 days. If she completes forty days and the bleeding has not stopped, she considers herself as having the ruling of the pure women. She bathes, prays, fasts and considers the blood that remains with her as false blood - according to the correct view. She may pray with this blood, and fast, and she is considered lawful for her husband (for sex). However, she must strive to guard against it by using cotton or something similar, and she must perform Wudhu' for the time of every prayer. There is no harm if she combines the prayers of Az-Zuhr and Al-'Asr, the prayers of Al- Maghrib and Al-'Isha', as the Prophet advised Hamnah bint Jahsh to do so.
