Istihadha

In

Arabic: اِسْتِحَاضَةٌ; flowing blood) represents a disturbance of the menstrual cycle of the woman which makes it difficult for her to perform some religious rituals (ibadah).[1][2]

Presentation

The woman who experiences the effects of Istihadha is called Mustahadha (

metrorrhagia).[3]

A woman is thus considered a mustahadha if she continuously releases vaginal blood and continues to bleed after having already completed her usual period of menstruation.[4]

This is how Istihadha is seen to be vaginal bleeding caused by reasons other than menstruation or childbirth.[5]

For some women, this bleeding never stops, and for others, it continues for longer than a normal period, but it stops temporarily for a short time.[6]

Prayer

The jurists (

mus'haf or during prayer (salah).[7]

The scholars relied on the permissibility of reading (

tawaf) around the Kaaba.[8]

If this blood comes under the same ruling as vaginal bleeding or gynecologic hemorrhage, then the affected woman is required to withhold the blood as much as possible through a piece of cloth, cotton and linen, and she performs ablution after hiding the blood for the time of each prayer upon entering its time (salah times) as a matter of obligatory (fard) among the majority of jurists, and as a desirable (mustahabb) as well as went to that Imam Malik ibn Anas.[9][10]

Fasting

A woman must abstain from

menstruation cycle, and if the bleeding continues with her and menstruation does not stop, then this means that she is suffering from vaginal bleeding.[11][12]

If she has a steady habit in her number and time, then she refrains from fasting for the duration of her period only, then she bathes (ghusl), prays and fasts even if there is bleeding on her, because it is menstruation blood that is caused by illness, surgery, stress or falls, so she is not prevented from performing the acts of worship (ibadah) imposed on her, and she is in the same ruling as immaculate women.[13]

Based on that, the

Hanbali jurists.[14]

Since her fast is valid, the mustahadha will make up the days of her menstruation if she knows that, either by the time of the month's period, or by the correct distinction between the nature, color and smell of the unclean normal blood of haydh and the pure blood of istihadha.[15]

Intercourse

In Islam, having sexual intercourse between a husband and his mustahadha wife with blood in her vagina is considered harmful to both spouses.[16]

Islamic law permits women to have penetrative vaginal intercourse during the days of

purity, except that she (the mustahaadhat- the one with the menstrual overflow) must wash any traces of blood from her vagina before beginning sexual penetration with her husband.[17][18]
