Waiting for bleeding from a cut to stop before performing salaah

· 19 Shaʻban 1446 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

If I get a cut or something before namaaz and it doesn't stop bleeding when azaan goes, must I miss jamaat to monitor the cut to see if it stops bleeding? If it doesn't then 15 minutes or so before that namaaz time is up do I qualify as a mazoor and must make wudu and read namaaz or as soon as azaan goes I qualify as a mazoor and must make wudu and go to the mosque and read namaaz in jamaat?

Answer

You should wait till the end of the time to see whether the bleeding stops. If you find that it does not stop, then before the time expires, you should perform the salaah in that state.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

How does a woman with irregular bleeding (istihaadha) pray?

“If after the 7 days, she still experiences spotting, then she should wait as this can be part of her haiz (since it is within 10 days). She should not perform any salaah in this time.”
