Prolonged Bleeding After Childbirth → ← Nifās Blood Exceeds the Days of Menstrual Habit

Nifās Blood Temporarily Stops

Faṭimah: What if a woman experiences bleeding for a total of nine days after childbirth, but there are intervals of purity within these nine days? What should she do?

Mother: As an obligatory precaution, during the days of purity between two periods of bleeding, she should both perform the obligatory acts of worship and refrain from the actions prohibited for a woman in Nifās. For example, if she only becomes pure on the fifth day, she should pray and fast (if it is Ramaḍān) as an obligatory precaution and at the same time avoid touching the verses of the Quran and staying in mosques.
