Istihaaza
Irregular Vaginal Bleeding
Hadith 1: It
is reported in Sahihain from Umm ul Momineen Siddiqa رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہا that Faatima bint Hubaish رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہا said, ‘Ya Rasool’Allah صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم !
I have Istihaaza and it does not stop; so should I not read Namaaz?’ He صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم said, ‘No, This is blood from the vein. It is not Haidh,
so when the days of Haidh come, leave your Namaaz and when they pass; wash away
the blood and read your Namaaz.’
Hadith 2: It
is reported in Abu Dawud and Nasa’i with regards to the narration regarding
Hazrat Faatima bint Hubaish رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہا that Rasoolullah صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم told her that when it is the blood of Haidh then it is blackish.
It will be recognised and when this happens leave your Namaaz and when it is of
some other type then perform Wudu and read your Namaaz, as this is the blood
from the vein.’
Hadith 3: It
is reported in the narration of Imam Maalik, Abu Dawud and Daarimi that there
was a lady who had continuous bleeding. Umm ul Momineen Umm-e-Salma
رضی اﷲ تعالیٰ عنہا asked
a Fatwa (Decree) from Rasoolullah صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم in this regard. He
صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم
said, ‘For the amount of days in a
month wherein she used to get her cycle, she should leave her Namaaz in accordance
with these days and when those days pass, she should take a bath, wear a
loincloth and then perform her Namaaz.
Note: Wearing
a loincloth actually refers to wearing something tight under the clothing which
will avoid any blood from coming through flowing freely.
Hadith 4: It
is reported in Abu Dawud and Tirmizi that He
صلی اﷲ تعالیٰ علیہ وسلم
said, ‘Abstain from Namaaz in the days
when you used to have your cycle, thereafter she should take a bath and perform
Wudu in the time of each Namaaz and she should keep her fast and perform her Namaaz.’
Laws of Jurisprudence
Regarding Istihaaza
Law: Neither
is Namaaz nor fasting excused or pardoned in Istihaaza. Intercourse with a
female in Istihaaza is also not Haraam.
Law: If
the Istihaaza has become so severe that she does not even get enough time to
make Wudu and perform her Fard Namaaz, then when one full Namaaz time passes in
this manner from the beginning of that Namaaz time until the end of it, she
will be regarded as a Ma’zoor (one suffering chronic annulment of Wudu). In
this condition, she may read as many Namaaz as she wishes in that particular
Namaaz time with one Wudu. Even if she bleeds the Wudu will not break.
Law: If
she is able to hold back the blood by using a cloth etc. giving herself
sufficient time to make Wudu and perform her Fard Namaaz then in this case the
Uzr will not be proven. In other words she will not qualify as a Ma’zoor.
