Praying following a Miscarriage
Explained by Shaykh Fawzan
Questioner: The questioner says: A woman had a miscarriage after about two months and ten days. Should she pray her prayers or should she refrain from praying?
Shaykh Fawzan: Two months and how long?
Questioner: She said, and ten days.
Shaykh Fawzan: Meaning seventy days. No, she does not stop praying. This blood is from hemorrhaging and it is not post child birth bleeding. Post child birth bleeding began at eighty-one days; when the pregnancy reaches the third set of forty days, when his bones differentiate during the stages of the embryo. If the miscarriage occurs at eighty-one days, meaning the beginning of the third set of forty days and blood comes after this then this is post child birth bleeding. Therefore due to this (bleeding) she leaves off prayer and fasting for a period of forty days until the bleeding stops. As for before eighty-one days, during the second set of forty days then this blood is not considered post child birth bleeding, rather it is consider hemorrhaging. She will not leave off the prayer or fasting due to this blood.
