Bleeding 11 days after Nifaas
Question
A woman completed her forty days of Nifaas and attained purity. She then witnesses blood 11 days later. Will this be considered as Haidh or Istihaadha?
Answer
The said blood will be considered as Istihaadha, as the minimum clean period between two menstrual cycles or between Nifaas and Haidh is 15 days. Since, only 11 days had passed, the bleeding will be categorized as Istihaadha.
