Menopausal bleeding clarification

The minimum period of a valid menstruation/haidh is three days. The maximum is ten days. Hence, if a woman bleeds for three days, her menstruation/haidh will be three days.

In the case of a menopausal woman bleeding, if she bleeds one Month etc. after the menopausal age of fifty five lunar years, the bleeding would be considered to be menstruation/haidh on condition that the blood colour is the same as the blood colour of menstruation/haidh experienced prior to the menopausal age of menstruation.

For e.g. the blood prior to the menopausal age of menstruation/haidh was red and it is also red after the menopausal age of menstruation/haidh. In such a case, it would be considered menstruation/haidh. (Shaami 1/304)

And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
