The Fasting of the Woman with Post­Childbirth Bleeding Question: If I give birth a week before Ramadhaan, for example, and I become pure before completing the forty days, is it obligatory upon me to fast? Answer: Yes, whenever the woman with post­childbirth bleeding becomes pure and that which she knows to be a sign of purity becomes apparent to her, which is the white pad or total cleanliness, then she fasts and prays. It makes no difference if it is even a day or a week after giving birth. For verily, there is no limit for the minimum amount of post­natal bleeding. Some women do not see any blood at all after giving birth. Reaching a period of forty days is not a condition. And Allaah knows best. (Shaikh Ibn Jibreen)
