Bleeding after one's normal habit in haidh
Question
On the 8th day of my period, during fajr time I saw complete dryness. So I did ghusl and offered prayer. But the next morning, I again saw blood.
Note that my usual habit of period is 8 to 9 days. Should I consider that my period is still going on?
Answer
Yes.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
