Qadha of the Aashura fast due to menses
Question
Slmz. I would like to know if i got my menstruation while keeping the fast of Aashura do i now have to keep a qadhaa fast.
Answer
In principle, if a woman experiences Haidh (menses) during a fast, the fast will break and it will be compulsory upon her to make Qadha of it. Hence, the same ruling will apply to a woman who experienced Haidh whilst observing the fast of Aashura, i.e. she will have to make Qadha of that fast. (Badaai-us-Sanaai’ 2/94)
And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
