Understanding Menstruation in Islamic Context

good morning ladies it's 6 30 four so actually four minutes late so it should start right uh so until the technical issues can everyone hear me especially those in the back i'm vaccinated so that's why i'm not using my mask in case you're wondering and plus when you speak with a mask it's a little bit tough let alone when you talk about menstruation with a mask you probably will sleep in the next 10 minutes so i have to make sure i keep you awake all right okay how many of you have studied this subject before okay i have one hand like how many has maybe have an idea about the subject how many are clueless never studied this mom taught me whatever she taught me right okay so it's a one-third actually one person who studied which is not too bad and then we have the rest is 50 50. so you're excited about this of course you're going to say yes we're going to tell them but of course you if you are not excited you wouldn't be here so i'm waiting to see if they will be able can you see this light because it's the lights okay okay so what we going to do actually i love this setup this is the first time other than the softball program where i see people on the floor this is actually the sunnah the teacher is always on the floor and the students on the floor and the teacher usually sit a little bit higher up so it's really interesting already everybody is ready everyone has their pens and why this is empty i'm going to ask the people in the back first the last people will be asked the one sits in the front so it's up to you where you want to sit ah very good sir all right yeah much better it's all off if you don't mind brother can you see it because it's extremely important for you to see the slides and i'm gonna so okay so do you see okay good luck for me how i'm gonna see this so i hope this is what i want from you if i am saying something you're not seeing it's there because i have the same slide let me know are you with me yes the people on the front may be tough for you to see the slides so you go to the second floor it's okay because i you have to see yeah right but that's okay yeah but i always learned and taught as everything is on time and it's an islamic concept by the way start and we are the muslims are famous for being not on time right have you had people invite you for a wedding and the wedding is seven o'clock and they tell you don't come at seven nobody will be there so let's learn let's change this that's it's so beautiful to see all these women honestly allah is my witness on a friday um i mean you could have been doing anything else with your children with friends coming here to learn about the subject was least to say is very difficult and dry so we're going to try to make it as as easy as possible inshaallah and if you learned one thing from the whole weekend alhamdulillah don't get overwhelmed because this topic in general is overwhelming not to you and me to the real scholars and i'm going to share with you some slides so for those of you who don't know me how many of you know me really alhamdulillah so i am a servant of allah my name is i am an ob gyn by profession and also allah blessed me with studying islamic studies and memorized his book and this is one of the toughest topics the most common questions i get before ramadan before hajj like before ramadan i i would love to have a woman send me a question saying how do i get closer to allah in ramadan no the question is can i fast can i not fast do i i just saw the blood one minute before maharam is my fasting is okay you know the usual alhamdulillah i look at it positively that this is a way that you all or that woman and everybody else wants to get close to allah but i want you to move and this is what i'm going to try to share with you this weekend it's not only this topic when we're going to try to move i was sharing this with some of the beautiful sisters i met for lunch is how to move from the traditional way of learning we women how we were taught to moving to the next step as servants of allah as a woman who serves allah and you need to start feeling this inshallah will put for you this so here you go um this is i have to put yeah this one the staff at gen institute put this so there's a gender institute which is a an islamic institute woman for a woman and hamlet we just finished this course but uh just before ramadan was the highest number of students registered in a course i have given which made me really good so a woman really wants to learn so if i can kindly ask you not to share these slides if there's a question or something i will be more than happy to do that and then because there is a project behind this class and app behind these slides ask allah and i ask you all to ask allah to make it happen so let's start with so i want you all to remember this dua and i always say this dua and there is a a beautiful and i i in every slide where there is a hadith or there is a verse of the quran you will see the source and learn this as woman let alone woman of knowledge and let alone most of you i was told you're teachers so you know it's it doesn't benefit you to say allah rasulallah what is the source where is it let alone this the verse from the quran difficult in the beginning but allah will make it easy so i put for you all the sources okay and this is allah for himself what about you and me is asking allah from a knowledge that is not beneficial what is the knowledge that is not beneficial for those of you who don't know me i do not speak alone you have to talk to me otherwise you all will sleep and start looking at your phones so what is a beneficial knowledge and not a benefit beneficial knowledge he asked allah to protect him from a knowledge that is not beneficial what is that yes can you speak up i have three issues distance mask or fan so may allah make it easy for me and you have no mic so can you yeah say it i think i heard you but i just want to make sure everyone so the knowledge that is so that knowledge that will not lead you to know allah so you worship allah properly okay so can we okay and this is a good question for everybody can can being a physician or studying medicine is beneficial knowledge you all said yes why she just said she gave you the definition the total she told you and a knowledge that would bring me close to allah and i immediately asked you studying medicine is a beneficial knowledge you all said yes why how many physicians know allah how many physicians doesn't know allah so what is the right answer it's not a yes or no i'm giving you a clue huh exactly before what you do but that's very good is why are you studying it and what are you doing with it even islamic studies i i asked some of the girls where i met this for the lunch why do you want to study islamic studies so you would be called sheikha so the masjid will hire you as a female scholar resident that's not beneficial that's for dunya this will be on day of judgement allah will say you didn't do this for me you know the hadith of the meaning of where the three people allah will ask them on day of judgment right you know the shaheed the martyr and allah said you didn't do this for me the knowledgeable you didn't do this for me the half of the quran you didn't do this for me so people will say you're happy so always renew read number one visit your knee write this down in everything you do not only in classes why do you want to get married why do you want to have children why do you want to travel why do you want to cut your hair honestly why do i take a shower don't say just because everybody does it i like it never say this there's no there's no reward learn to change your daily actions to act of worship that's how you move from ordinary to being a servant of allah why you are here to learn alhamdulillah of course but why do you want to learn why do you want to learn i'm asking anybody can answer me why do you want to learn this topic not in general this topic why to please allah true but there is more to it specifically this topic it's going to come in the slides yes i didn't hear well please forgive me yeah so yes you want to have the right knowledge about this topic why you're absolutely why exactly exactly how do i know how to worship allah how do i know not to fast in ramadan in that day or that time right and it's going to come in the slide so always revisit your knee if you didn't learn anything in this coming weekend except what i just said you've learned a lot why do you cook for your family all children are hungry that's not for allah why did you cook macaroni and cheese well my children loves it that's not for allah well my children loves it but you have to find a nia to please allah what are you going to do you're cooking for your children because they love it burger fries but how do you change it to please allah huh yeah but how in this in this scenario how yes but fries is not healthy food but they love it ah i'm glad you're thinking when you give them fries are they gonna be happy mom i love you they kiss you you made a muslim happy that's an act of worship so learn this and keep asking allah to show you it's very easy later on in the beginning you have to keep reminding yourself any job you do whatever your profession i was taught this first things i was taught every time you open a door to see a patient say allah this is for you so the patient pleased and she thank you alhamdulillah if she didn't alhamdulillah because he did it for allah so you're here today to learn number one i can give you 10 20 years for why you're here but number one we will say seeking knowledge and that's something pleasing allah number two to worship allah properly how do i know learn to number three you're in the masjid look at this beautiful number and allah said this in sort of tawba who are the best those who flourish the masajid of allah number four i can teach my daughter so my daughter can worship allah in the right way five i meet these beautiful people and the best company you are in is the company of the righteous people six when you sit and learn about allah what do you get who comes around you angels you all know that remind yourself literally remind yourself in every step when i put my foot in the plane this is by the way my first trip since the covet i've i am before the comet i used to live in the plains like i used to joke with my family i was like i live in the sky more than i live on the on earth but i didn't this is my first one and then when i put my foot in the plane leaving saint close i said yeah well this is for you you taught me this i want all your servants to learn this so they worship you correctly done if i died in the plane allah knows why i'm here so learn this extremely important teachers mothers whatever profession you have whatever decision you're taking in your life first question has to be why and never answer i like it that's your nifs it has to be something to please allah and if there is no reason to please allah don't do it let alone if it doesn't please allah alhamdulillah now how do i learn how do i learn this is anybody at half of here in the from the quran can you have that in this room i love to tease the happy life but that's okay i gave you the clue anyway it's in there this is the last page of surah after allah covered all the story of satan yusuf the last page is allah talking to rasulallah and that's the statement is is it moving remember i told you it's moving next slide who do i give to ah i didn't see you now so next slide please already please remind me if i say something you don't see it say situate my next slide for you yes okay this is a challenge but allah will remind us for all these difficulties and i am saying this specifically to women don't you give a fatwa don't you say something you don't know this is serious it's way more serious than you give a recipe of something that is not correct i had someone on friday actually last tuesday texted me and i couldn't believe the question let alone the fatwa she said sister aifa i found out i've been doing this all my life wrong i was like subhanallah what were you doing she said sister a woman just told me before i go to juma'ah listen to this before i go to juman i have to pray for at home i have to pray for rakat of wahr before i go for jumu'ah and i was wrong all my life because i never prayed lord in my life which one is right which one is right don't be scared say i don't know which one is right you have to pray for before jummah you have to pray just jumu'ah so why didn't you answer me don't be scared this is absolutely i was like who told you this she said the sister of knowledge i was like subhan allah absolutely replaced lord if you prayed in the masjid with the imam sarah don't answer what's up group now these days telegram groups don't answer say that used to say the following the person who said i don't know gave the right answer unless you really know it i mean like what is the last surah and the quran of course you're going to answer i hope you know insha'allah next five here you go why you are learning right it is of the most important obligation look at the words this is any lawyer in this room no lawyer nobody studying law when you study you're studying like law every word count so when i say obligation i mean something when i say haram which means something when i say it's okay i mean something it's not like we speak every word has consequences so it's of the most important obligation look at this to know the rulings of the lord of the worlds so you can worship him correctly that's how it is so imagine if you come to this masjid to pray jumuah and you don't have uldu is your salah valid why not not answer me some one person loud i can't hear you yeah you don't have aldo and he said why not you prayed you did the same movement ah you didn't answer correctly but have correctly she said to be clean is a prerequisite the pre-requisite is correct the clean is not correct not proper so what is the proper word atahara is not a proper word it's part of it yes don't assume uldu is a pre-requisition for the validity of salah so a non-muslim comes in alhamdulillah and she's praying with you is her salah valid why not she did she is not a muslim and and so she is not a muslim true and do you see what i am teasing you no no no what's one of the pre-requisitions right i was told what's wrong what happened to it traveled went back home so yes so pre-requisition so this is what it is obligations to know so you know how to worship allah properly properly ladies because allah when i and you or stand in front of allah are we going to have a private meeting with allah is any any of us will have a private meeting with allah on day of judgment each one of us individually each one will come alone meeting allah he's going to ask me why didn't you know yahifa what do i say there was no internet i didn't know english the quran was not translated what is my excuse did you get my point so obligation to learn so you can worship allah properly next one please now why to study the ruling of menstruation that's your knee that will explain it right and by the way it's all masturbation and postnatal bleeding we call it so after you after delivery menstruation this is an imam with darumi and he says menstruation is a lost branch of knowledge no book was authored to deal with it sufficiently it's so true there is no english book talk about this in detail the everything i'm sharing with you is translated i translated it because there is nothing in english there's just a small one there's three books very small one is in the hanafi book and the other two very small very very basic there isn't and now i'm going to tell you why so basically is a lost branch imam ahmad said the following he said not to me i stayed nine years learning the knowledge of my situation imam ahmed nine years why i'll come to you don't don't be too sad don't be shocked next one please may allah reward you the branch of knowledge this is how many of you here are oh not that many what is the rest of me this is the first group usually i get 99.9 alhamdulillah so this is why i cover i usually cover the poor school of thoughts so anyway imam evening is a famous sanity scholar he said the branch of knowledge becomes so important when it is harmful not to know did you get the point so when i don't know let's say i don't know it's zakar ruling but i don't work i don't have money it's not a big deal but if i have money and i don't know anything about zakah i'm in big trouble so learning about zakah becomes important right now in case you will saying this may come to your mind some of you i was like i'm menopause why do i need to learn about this i had friends who came to us like i'm menopause it's different why do i want to learn this what do you think my answer was i'm sorry one person yes can't hear you i love to hear okay so she said somebody around may need no i answered even more so if you see bleeding today what are you gonna do are you gonna pray or not pray she looked at me and says i said then you need to study it and by the way you all answered wrong yeah don't you ever answer right away i'll show you how at the end you will think a zillion times before you give a yes answer or right answer there's always it depends and you need more information so be careful so here you go man i've new james says so important to learn this it's not boring it's difficult yes boring could be but i need to learn this because that's my worship with allah and here you go even says the rules that depend on menstruation there are rules there are rules depend on menstruation there are rules yes or no don't look at the slide it's not in the slide that's tomorrow you will learn is there rules related to menstruation yes or no yes or no yes okay if you said yes you're right tell me hajin umrah the sister thought about the thing that we're not going to do this year i mean maybe allah will invite us right only 60 000 people are allowed this year for hajj who are these from all over the world who are these subhanallah so why do i have to learn why it is there's rooms what is the number one ruling number one ruling daily salah my sarah right so there is rules depend on it now because of the it's in there because of the numerous sharia rulings related to menstruation learning rulings related to menstruation it's actually by the way it's a third line you know what's for line did they teach you for buying fort fire collective duty and individual duty menstruation knowledge is collective or it is individual it's individual you have to know it because it's related to you and not every community has and you don't have an access in every community or every day and every minute to somebody who gives you the ruling next one please okay so here we go again obligation please learn it and your children your daughter will ask you especially if you are somebody let's say you're a student martial in the seminary your relatives may think you are you know and they will come to ask you if you need to answer you need to know the right answer so it is borderline next one please why it is so difficult and why imam muhammad stayed nine years and the imam bin new james tells you and imam darumi told you it's a lost branch because there isn't a verse in the quran except the one you see it on your screen that is it nothing in the quran how many verses in the quran i can't hear six thousand i i heard the sixth sound i heard the three thousand and then you are very close exactly so more than six thousand verses in the quran talks about everything there is only one at all in only one categorically there is no mention of it later on in a different way in a different world that is it is you should never forget this it's very unique number it's the surah chapter is 2 and the verse is 2 2 2 right that's it there's nothing else what let's see i want your brain with me look at the verse what other thing that catch your eyes in the verse related to woman yes i i can't hear you i can't hear you exactly this is what i tell all my patients when they have pain before the period right this minority we call it sometimes it's really bad especially young girls they suffer and i said subhan allah allah said it and you know what's that is not pain only and it's harm to its pain it's discomfort and the discomfort can be emotional it can be physical true or false we all know this you all have wanted through it maybe every month maybe once in your lifetime and what did allah say stay away this is related to will come to it later on so once you think of menstruation right it is something that is not very pleasure is not fun of course shaytan is going to come and ask you make you ask this question so why do i have to have it if it's pain why did allah give this to me may allah forgive us but these days we question everything why have you had somebody ask you this question lucky you [Music] why everybody asks these days why why i why does allah give me menstruation and he said it's pain and it's harm i can't hear you don't you say it's abhila she said it's a test don't say that people will reading you have to be very careful when you come to the woman what is the answer the beautiful answer i can't hear you allah always has a wisdom what is the wisdom i can't hear you more can't hear you with the mask brings you closer to allah talk tell this to a 15 year old who has uh really pain throwing up and she's in the emergency room you're getting close to it what honor my situation bring i gave you a clue how you will become a mother if you don't have masturbation you will not be able to get pregnant unless you have menstruation that's the hikmah that's the hikmah remember this always look you you all answered very well but there and those who are given wisdom have been given a lot of hair so ask allah because these norms this is what my goal in this class is not only to teach you theory reality people will ask you these questions young girls these days everything they question from the presence of allah to everything else to why i am praying in the back why cannot i be in the front and i be in the place of shaykh have you heard this already exactly you need to get ready and don't get offended don't get upset but this is how you look at it do you want to be a mother and what did the rasuari sahaja yoga said about the mother um your mother your mother your mother then your father how you become a mother no menstruation no childbirth period no pain no gain that applies on this one i always tell this to patients when they are having a baby it's painful i'm glad there's epidural these days but i will say you know what the most beautiful thing you will ever have once you see that baby everything is gone and you will come back again next year and i will deliver you so heather and i'm to try to bring you to everything allah will make me remember so here you go that's the only verse in the quran next one this is a beautiful hadith yes a beautiful hadith of course say dies so this is the scenario of this hadith by the time you read it she was with the rasulallah how many times rasulallah performed one only once and who he took with him from his wives only you're cheating because you look because you're reading the hadith did he take otherwise or only who says i don't know gave the right answer so anybody knows did he take only say daisy he took more all of them none yes all of them so i think you're right why because there's a ruling you all have done it how many of you have been to umrah how many of you have done more than one umrah at the same time you went to masjid aisha why i have no idea everybody tells me go to masjid i shall come back why because of this and because he took his otherwise with him so let's go to this first so here you go they were all left they came to a place called sarov seraph is like few miles from makkah so imagine this you're so excited you paid ten thousand dollars to darsalam and you are gonna go to makkah love to medina and boom you had your period and i have seen this scenario i cannot tell you the reactions of the woman and my immediate answer is masha'allah you're like say that she looks at me and said well you're like that's exactly what happened to her they came to shut off a few miles from makkah and she starts crying and the rasa he entered to her to the room and found her crying immediately said an fst you have your period and she said yes what did he say that's the other question the answer this is something allah decreed on the woman of the the daughters of adam i have no control over it and if you don't get your cycle by 16 or 17 everybody will get worried right whether the girl or the mother so this is something so he said to her this is something allah decreed on the daughters of adam do like what like everyone else does except don't do tawaf we'll come to this later sha allah i think tomorrow okay i want you to memorize this slide like you know your name because this is going to solve the issue of spotting i spot before the cycle is it my is it i see blood after the cycle is it do i pray do i fast do i go for do i go for tawaf so what is the word mean everything in this deen and i'm sure you have taught you've been taught this why you learned it everything in this gene has a name and the name is related to what is this subject for example what is salaam mean don't tell me the 5 salah i know the answer what is salaam what is the origin of the word connection connection that's the word meaning salah connect so the essence of salah is connection with allah what does the word say mean what is the word song means what i'm sorry you defined their song i talked i'm asking linguistically not islamically linguistically what does say mean i'm sorry you're close masha'allah you're very close you always give close answers very close huh can't hear you can't we have a mic that we give it to people yeah yeah because you are suffering and i'm suffering so what does soul mean huh remove it so i can hear no you it's you yes to withhold to withhold that's what's uh well she's not eating and drinking nothing to do that i am not going to be talking withheld so song is to hold hajj don't tell me i go to makkah and do all this no linguistically what is the word you mean huh that's translation the word mean in arabic means what aj bait meaning what no be close but you you miss the most important your direction your intention what do you want to do so i say for example i just to bait elena i didn't go to makkah i intend to go and visit her house so learn the meaning of the word why i'm saying this because that will tell you what is mean the word is in the quran what is the word you mean literally means to flow you have tear assay so here you go i always say this one woman asked me i don't know if what i'm seeing bleeding is higher or not i was like okay you're all woman and this is not recorded when you go to the bathroom this is how i i still when you go to the bathroom please forgive me you urinate does it come she said yes i said that's it it's your salah came in flow so number one is flow it's come from when the valley filled with water that's higher so islamically i combined for you there's so many terminology and i will show it to you many definitions in the fourth school of thoughts i found this to be the most comprehensive it's from a contemporary scholar anybody from syria here nobody okay sheikh wabashi is a very well known he passed away a few years ago very well known contemporary scholar may allah give him genetically for those his books are amazing and tafsir in quran amazing so he combined everyone and this this actually even combined with medicine so menstruation the bleeding this has to be blood and i would probably change this later on to translation to become the color discharge because when you think of blood you think of red and the menstruation color not necessarily red so let's keep it this way that flow and the ones i put in red is what i want you to pay attention normally so you're not sick you're not ill you have not delivered the baby is normal and regular regular timing from the furthest side of the womb or the uterus so bleeding from the vulva is not menstruation bleeding from the vagina is not menstruation bleeding from the cervix is not menstruation has to come from the inside not because of birth or illness so childbirth deliver a baby the bleeding is not menstruation it's postnatal i'm sick the woman is sick taking medications now she's bleeding that's not menstruation clear you can stop me at any time and we will try to give you always questions and answers clear don't ask me anything about something i'm gonna come later only what i discovered i have 140 slides for you so there's a lot of information yes what's your name my sister ah you're egyptian because you say elia yes so it's gonna come that i told you don't ask how do you all know of course the million dollar question there's three million or four million dollar questions in this topic how do i know it started how do i know it ended how do i know this bleeding i'm seeing is menstruation or something else that's the most important one so we'll come to it bismillah so this is the summary of it flow of blood healthy woman from the uterus not because she delivered the baby not because she's sick in an appointed time time is the most important time is very important and we're gonna come to this in detail okay bismillah for school of thoughts that's the definition of them i don't think you need to worry about this slide but since most of you i think all of you are students of knowledge if you come out from this weekend appreciating that there is different opinion and respecting the different opinion you learned a lot alas who are who am i to judge who's right this is there's four opinion they all have a lot of reasons why they use this and not this so if you look at the definition the most accurate from the if i'll come to you from the information we know now does she have before school i thought yeah oh i'm sorry can we go back please may allah reward you i can't see is it i can't see yes is that the one yeah so if you look at the four school of thoughts in everything in salah the hand is up the end is here the hand is down there is they have reasons and the reasons are so valid but then some reasons were not there the later they found the reasons or they found the evidence so just learn to respect that's why i want you all learn to respect the others so alhamdulillah here you have the almost the fourth school of thoughts so she does it this way that's right as long as what she does is not without knowledge so here you go the four school of thoughts the imam imam ahmad is the probably the most accurate in this one because he is saying natural regular bleeding shed by the womb of a woman when she reached the age of puberty it's probably the most accurate the most accurate one so in general it's a normal phenomena blood come from the uterus in a certain age at certain time and not delivery and not sickness clear yes alhamdulillah next one please what is the minimum age what is the minimum age i i want to hear it nine how do you know that it's true don't use you're right but how do you know that masha'allah i'm sorry already it's a weak opinion but you're right okay so it is nine however that's not clear cut now that's what you will remember and you will learn in menstruation there's nothing is written in stones because there is no proofs there's no there's no hadith when does it start but most cases is nine years of age guess what medicine say so you bring your daughter to me in the office and he says dava she's bleeding and i say how old is she and you say she's seven or you say she's 10. so because she's seven it's not menstruation or because she's 10 it's menstruation did you get my point average is nine so if you look in medicine books they say the average age is nine but can it be earlier the answer is yes can it be later the answer is yes have i seen younger girls yes but if she is six or seven before you say this is menstruation you need to make sure there's nothing else going on so if you bring your daughter to me and she's seven she's bleeding the first thing i'm gonna do i was like i need to get an ultrasound let's make sure her ovaries are okay because there is some condition in the ovaries produce hormones she's bleeding but she's not masturbating yet that's abnormal so the average age is nine however and i put all the opinion for you he said there is no age once the blood that comes in is fifth the criteria that's my situation so you bring your seven-year-old to me and i look at her and i will examine her and i see it from that we are all woman i see that she has the breast is formed right there is here i do send an ultrasound the ovary is normal i do some blood work everything is normal i look at you and say this is her cycle she's young yes she is but it is her cycle why do i need to know this now the most important question why do i need to tell a seven-year-old you have this bleeding is menstruation because she's now become a baller meaning islamically adult and i'm sorry so now certain things becomes obligation subscribe and you have to be gentle if that's the case even nine but it's this is the average age now we are saying you go to school you have children if you have girls you go to the uh primary school like sixth grade half of them has their cycle already subs but that's how it is so now medicine and islamic knowledge are agreeing absolutely okay and that's the other opinions now i'm sharing with you other no age before nine that it is possible to for example hanafi school at the age of six some hanafi's except menstruation age of seven the average is nine don't go and don't worry about a lot of the details but i'm sharing it with you because you're student of knowledge so average is nine if your daughter is eight and a half probably it is her cycle but if she's seven [Music] i can't hear so menopause menopause when does it stop completely it depends now you're learning right not exactly the right answer this time in all other slides it depends on not this one huh now you're giving me physiology when the ovary stops i need age you're right but what is age yeah allah 45 woman will hate you what is the age what is medicine says and what islam says and it's very close subhanallah very close what is the average age huh 5-0 yes why you're scared right that's what islam says 5-0 most commonly again there's no proof there's no ayah there's no how did they know this you will be so shocked they like imam shafi they say he did what they call this he went to his town and asked the woman and he got the average ya allah look at us and now we just whatever we read on the internet and we are done so the average age here you go different opinion average age the humbly says 50. see it's here the last one next slide please happy with it do you see hamburger yes so apparently they say 55 maliki say 70 yes no limit humbly say 50. why did i say hambali is the closest right because that's what medicine say medicines the average age of menopause is 51 in the united states of course it differ between countries there if the country is hot weather they stop earlier or later later exactly like if you go to the arab world the average is 55 because the weather heat heat i always tell a woman like in ramadan this is another very common i see i missed my cycle i traveled back home and came back and i didn't get my cycle for two months she's not pregnant i said did you where did you travel and that's like traveling affected fasting affected stress affected temperature affected because it's all how the body reacts so if you look at these fanatic 55 70 maliki's are very different humbly is 50. what i like before i go to this what i like is actually what i tell my patients and the woman who asked me if you are still seeing the bleeding the regular like if you come to me and you say i'm 54 and i'm still reading dr haefer and i say okay tell me more so i normally take literally i take from her menstrual calendar almost and so when was it last year and last month one was the month before one was the month before and then we look at three months and i said you're still messed waiting that's normal so it's not like a cut or written in a stone but the average however have i seen what is the youngest age of menopause i have seen so sad 20 yeah 20 really i couldn't allah knows how i how i delivered the message to her because that means no children now i told you why it is an emma because i had to tell this 20 year old newly married that she will never have children and a husband so when you look at my situation and you complain talk to this girl 20 i have seen 27 i've seen 33 35 37 40s you name it and i have seen up to 60 and she's still master eating so we applied that rule it's still regular same and i was like your fertile masala i delivered the patients yesterday just before i came to you guys wednesday actually 47 first baby natural subhan allah got married at age 45 first time muslim then got pregnant then miscarried last january you can imagine the drama and then allah gave her a baby no sir we just delivered her wednesday so why i'm sharing these stories with you my situation don't complain about it myanmar can't be a mother without it so this girl actually the 20 year old had a long session with her and her husband and i were catholically attained i was telling them go and adopt children you and the one who adopted take care of children is like with the rasa to a sound like this so it's a huge name average age different age can be as young as 18 20 can be as old as i have not seen above 60 normal i have not but that doesn't mean it is not but very unlikely like as you said in america regard up till 70. how do you know she's menopause you do a blood test because just for you to know it's a good information so it's amazing the creation of allah that's being a physician makes you even look and get connected to alive and more the miracle of a human being that we don't even look at so you the the ovary the uterus look at it this way this is the this is the ovary and then the brain this is just the container and this is the responder the all the control is from here so when we i want to see if you are menopause or not i don't look at the uterus means nothing i look at the ovaries i look at the brain is the brain functioning so i do one blood test it's called fsh if it is above 25 this woman is menopause this woman came in one or three we did it three times one or three absolute menopause it's called premature menopause even in medicine so it happens but that's not the norm in all my career i've seen 120 127 233 and then 35 and above i've seen more especially people who goes under a lot of stress i've seen a lot of bosnian women after the war and they go through menopause from what they have went through okay yes can she be menopause and come back yes it's possible it's definitely possible not common but i have seen it to be menopause you have to have a one year of no cycle that's the definition of it in medicine one year no cycle to be a menopause but for this like when we when they come young in their 20s and no cycle for two and three months you have to do a blood test one of them is this if this comes high that's it but in general the woman is not menopausal it's a one year like if she bleeds after we have to look at it as abnormal and if nothing is there then i say yep you got your cycle again i have seen i have seen it many times okay let's go next one yes the possible colors of yes this one also memorized with your heart not only your brain these are the colors four that scholars agree on the most common color is not red it is black darker think of it this way because that really will help you sha allah not you but if you go through a case of abnormal bleeding and then i was like i don't know and i my first question can you can you tell me the difference between the colors or the smell is it darker is it more thick so think of it this way if you are cooking which we all do and you cut yourself with a knife how many have done that who didn't right what's color of the blood comes in here red bright red and flow that's bleeding that's not menstruation it's not this color is it no i love that is it the same flow no it's thicker right aha so number one the color is most commonly black red why did i put these them the colors yellow or turbid we're going to add more because at the end of the mestrel cycle the bleeding color changes right yeah about first you have this gush of red and black and then becomes brown and it may be a little bit of more all this is menstruation all these colors colors parts of menstruation so i put for you here yellowish and turbid discharges after menstruation are counted if it is after you finish it as long we'll come to it later so here we go i added the hanapi and the chaffee they added more colors so you have greenish turbot dusty right red black yellow turbid and green i've never seen a green but i don't know why they put the green honestly i have not because usually green is infection but i'm not going to comment because who i am to comment on the imam's shafi yes i rush to things what do we do to her okay be patient and allah will make you patient we'll come to this because that's very good question yeah exactly already how about this one where's our pregnant lady he left allah may allah give her full healthy baby and easy delivery yeah i mean so so what do you do if you're pregnant and you're bleeding how many you how many of you have been pregnant alhamdulillah have you bled during pregnancy yes anybody right what did you do prayed or didn't pray not delivery i'm talking about pregnancy i thought she's in big trouble so what did you do pray why just a second i'm coming to you why you prayed masha'allah i prayed okay huh mom told me no really you prayed why why it's not a period just a second one by one do you see how i'm questioning you i'm putting you on your tiptoes right why you're right you're right but why so you're right because that's the most correct opinion but why yes sister that's not correct no not necessarily it can be but most of the bleeding in pregnancy is actually from the uterus but what is the difference now this is you have to be positioned but in general so let's go to the next slide please okay different opinion you never go wrong if you say different opinion the essential ruling states that the pregnant woman does not menstruate islamically medically goes with it that's the beauty of it why that's why i was asking you why okay i'm not i'm trying not to be very technical because i don't want to bother you with the with the medicine but in general look at my hand the uterus is exactly like the fruit the pear fruit you all have a you know you cut the pear and there's this line in the middle and then we normally remove it because we can't eat it that line is the lining of the uterus exactly and how they will see the slights huh i don't know i leave it to you hi i love seeing you better but i'm worried about you seeing this light so anyway the line in the in here is the lining of the uterus the lining of the uterus is what we women shed during menstruation meaning if you take this is technical but it's very helpful if you take the blood of menstruation and you take out blood from the cuts and you put them under the microscope they are not the same not the same at all the one the menstruation has blood and has other tissues the lining the blood has blood only the pregnant woman does not have this line because she's pregnant she bleeds from the placenta and the placenta is blood how did they know that it's amazing when i was doing this was like yeah allah however and some women they are pregnant still menstruate the answer is yes early how many of you you didn't know you're pregnant i see this a lot right yes you didn't know you're pregnant and and you come and you find out you're three months pregnant and you look at me says dr eunice but i was i had my cycle last week last month and i was like i've seen it so both opinion is correct this is what i love about this literally after i prepared for this i have more way more respect to the scholars how did they know that they were men no microscope i don't know how much women knew that time but look at they they really put their heart in it so in general the answer is no so immediately you say it is not my cycle unless you're in the beginning you may have to so it's very rare as i put it next one what time we have to stop do you need to take a break really no break very interesting yeah i'll be the calhoun hundred like can i take a break just to drink this is very technical i'm gonna skip it if you allow me because this is the argument why some says it is she can must wait and some says she cannot mess away i'll pass it if you allow me because it is very um technical life so this will next slide next one please you missed it go back go back please yes is it hanafi and hambali on one side maliki and shafi okay so here you go that's a different opinion we try to make it as easy as possible because when you have it in charts it will be easier for you so possible to menstruate so if you say yes i had it you're right here you go imam malik shafi and ibn taymiyyah he said yes she can and now nope hanafi and imam ahmad or humble school no because of this evidence madison says both are possible most commonly she does not so if you are seven or eight months pregnant i would say impossible nothing is impossible very unlikely you are masturbating because it's completely different mechanism where you are bleeding from clear what time is your major eight to twenty okay okay so the pregnant woman we next to slide three we agreed on that the pregnant woman does not menstruate okay two things we need to cover before minimum days of bleeding how much so three days i heard so i hear i think 24 hours one day five days minimum minimum don't be don't confuse that question minimum three days type any other huh somebody said it not that not the average the minimum one day anybody else type those who said three days based on what you're right so don't get scared you're right who which school of thought yes i am very surprised you're the only community who doesn't know the hanafi school god everybody else knows three and ten rule yes so the three days right the one day answer is incorrect not because it's incorrect because the way you said it is incorrect has to be said in a fairly way you said it's almost correct it has to be your moon they say day and night has to be you know i'll give you examples like why she's going into this details so let's go into this three days and nights day and night 24 hours no lower limits what does that mean practically let's go to life so this is your daughter let's give your daughter um okay let's give this scenario very common you're a woman who got pregnant delivered breastfeed got pregnant and delivered breastfeeding it's for six years which is very common sometimes eight years literally you don't remember anything right and then you start bleeding and the blood is flow you smell will look everything right so you saw the bleeding assume wartime at 12 noon you saw bleeding what are you gonna do did you get my why i'm saying this what are you gonna do pray or don't pray yes or no the first question you ask is what which school of thought you follow always you don't answer your opinion what school of thought you follow what school of school school you thought you follow so the woman's and i say okay which where do you come from says india and pakistan that's the communist right or the parties i was like do you pray with socks or without socks that's my next question she said without socks so which school of thought she is hanafi because he's the only one the only one he says okay salah is okay without socks the other three schools nope you need to cover so i said you're hanafi so what does she do with this bleeding do you pray or don't blame don't pray huh pray or don't pray yes or no or i don't know okay i'm gonna make it easy how many of you say she will pray show me hands she needs to pray she just saw the bleeding so this is my question the question is this woman doesn't remember a thing for six or eight years pregnant or delivering now she is at noon today getting ready to go to masjid let's make it very interesting this scenario right took her household and dressed and going to the jumuah and guess what boom she goes or she doesn't does it just a second don't jump on her she doesn't why that's the everything you answer you really need to know why remember this is hukum of allah you're telling the woman don't pray or you're telling the woman pray so yes or no she said don't go who says go the first question you should ask what what school of thought you follow if she tells you i am a hanafi then go or don't go look at my face what did i say here okay previous slide please exactly how do i know this is a cycle i need three days of bleeding in the hanafi school then it is cycle that's what i'm telling you that's why i wanted the previous one can we go back did you go back so the minimum duration of muscular cycle minimum days of bleeding then i regarded it as bleeding so minimum that's why we said day and a half a day and a night 24 hours or no minimum just one time you see so let's make it easy for you if i am a hanafi and i have not had a cycle for years and i don't remember then i will wait three days because if this bleeding happened only once and nothing else that's not your cycle you know when this is very relevant when you put iud when you put or you are breastfeeding right and you call me it's like sister haifa what is this bleeding should i pray did you get that why i'm saying this so if she's a hanafi she needs to wait three days this breathing has to continue for three days so these are three days you pray then if it continues more than three days that's it if she is not a hanavi 24 hours day and night yes dude yeah because you don't know if she's a maliki absolutely not because he requires only one time you see it blood comes out you're done did you get it confused very confused very confused now you're going to learn not to answer alhamdulillah yes sister i can't hear you tell me i'm sorry she has ah that's a different story that's this is why i told you she does not remember her cycle i told you eight years but if she knows her cycle and this is the time absolutely her cycle did you get the point remember the definition on an appointed what time appointed time i can see it on your faces like how many times i've said to the woman wrong answer it's okay right now don't rush tomorrow we're going to cover this this is what we're going to cover tomorrow all the rulings related to salah all the rulings read to saul all ruling related to quran touching and reading getting to the masjid staying in the masjid passing through the masjid we're gonna cover we're gonna cover marriage and relationship we're gonna cover postpartum bleeding we're gonna cover abnormal bleeding so don't rush i told you 140 slides i i think i am going to see only two people tomorrow right no sha allah more already so remember this first question you ask the woman what school of thought she follows right and i give you an easy clue if she prays without socks then she's ahead of you right however if she knows it she knows this is the time that's my usual time then that's it okay so three opinions we said this is this no lower limit that's humanity right what is the longest duration how long for how long how long bleeding for how long huh so i have 11 i have 15 what else i have 10 i need anything else huh i can't hear i i heard eight did i hear eight somebody from the sun okay so i hear eight i hear 11 why here 10 what do else i hear 15 or 14 so what is the longest the answer is yes and no and there's a lot of wrong answers to be gentle with you so let's look into the slide next one please already there's two numbers only don't throw numbers it's really two another school maximum ten and if you school maximum ten so remember the hanafi school the ruling of three to ten minimum three days she has to be bleeding before it's a cycle maximum ten and all the other school is fifteen that's what you all where does this come if you put an iud again if you put the non-hormonal iud and your period become longer okay for how long your cycle changes that's very common scenario the cycle changes what do i do so again i ask the question hanafi you pray without the socks 10 days day 11 you make your russell and you start praying no you are the other ones wait till 15 days after 15 days then you start praying fasting this is also relevant to ramadan and fasting absolutely this is like a killer for the woman in ramadan it's like sister hey for 15 days i was like i'm sorry i wish i can tell you something else but i can't unless you're hanafi you have a five days less right and next ramadan make sure you get yourself something just to to believe this but remember these numbers so the longest basically in a month in every month if you bleed all the month you have to have at least 15 days of purity meaning you can pray and you fast even if you're bleeding you get the point so remember because the communist opinion the three school of thought is 15 days and everything after 15 is abnormal bleeding yes question i always lack of sovereignty i'm giving you all the act of sabor in the quran the order allah gave to us that it's going to come when we get to the abnormal bleeding because it's a very relevant questions by the way it's very good question but we're going to cover it when we come to the abnormal bleeding when the woman continue to bleed how does she know which is which how for how long right i'm talking now about norm norm cycle all righty this there is this i put it there in case some of you will never learn this this is the woman now look at this this is a woman came to rasulallah right these days me and i'm an ob gyn and i cannot imagine myself going to rasulallah i'm asking him this question i will be in my clothes as they say i'll be sweating i but subhanallah they wanted to learn their deen that's what i want to tell you all learning their deen did not their any even say that i just said this about especially the woman of bashfulness and being shy did not prevent them from learning so look what she said she came to him and she says i am a woman i bleed heavy for a long time no cycle right so he come to our and he says it is abnormal of course this is a terminology but it's abnormal if you don't know anything then you do six to seven days then you take a shower i'll i'll come to this later on but this is another opinion that you take the average the average what is the average of the woman six to seven days what does medicine say five to seven days that's what they taught us five to seven days subhanallah okay clear and i'll come to this when we come to the abnormal bleeding later on right so minimum days of purity meaning there has to be every month certain amount of time where it doesn't matter what i see i am praying i am fasting the relationship with my husband i can't come to the masjid i can read quran i can review my quran all this 15 days in the majority as i said to you 15 days in the majority that's all the school of opinion one opinion of imam ahmad that he say 13 days but it is 15 days so let's say you're hanafi you bled day one first of the month up till day 11 you're still bleeding so day 11 i pray or i don't pray you pray if i am not a hanafi if i am not a hanafi pray or not pray perfect then day 15 of the month i'm still bleeding if i am not a hanafi prayer don't pray day 15 not yet day 16. i am continuously bleeding now it's day 30 of the month now may 31st and i'm still bleeding what do i do may 31st pray because it's more than 15 days did you get it i don't know i don't think you got it let's do it again look at the month once you look at the calendar this is what i tell patients show me your calendar let's do it on the calendar so may 1st you're you started the bleeding right and you cannot remember your cycle that scenario or normally you're seven no may 8 i'm bleeding may 9 i am bleeding may 10 i'm bleeding this month something happened i'm hanafi may 11 i start doing what pray and fast and relationship and everything else i am not a hanafi i don't pray i don't fast right till day 16 i'm still bleeding what do i do on day 16 pray and fast and everything we'll come to this also in abnormal bleeding now it's may 31st i'm still bleeding other than calling my ob gyn this is abnormal what are we going to do with the salah may 31st go back and pray did you get it so you have to have every month before school of thought every month there has to be 15 days that you pray and you fast and of course all the others meaning that's how they say it in arabic the minimum days of islamic purity meaning no bleeding is 15 days every month there is 15 days after fast pray and do all this yes yes no and everyone perfect good question march 31st i start uh fast praying move right i'm still bleeding june 14. i'm still praying june 15 i'm bleeding i'm not praying anymore you count it every 15 days okay when we get to i can see you are completely confused so you don't answer the woman when she asks when she asks when we get on sunday you remind me if i forget when you come to the abnormal bleeding i will make some charts for you actually we had this when we did this course in general institute we gave the woman questions and answers give them real scenarios real scenarios put it on the calendar and tell me what are you going to tell the woman or what are you going to tell yourself but just may i memorize this now that the minimum time of purity is 15 days and we will practice it on sunday inshallah actually we finished alhamdulillah because that's class 2 that's tomorrow i think so right yes exactly this is tomorrow right what i am teaching you today is the norm if you know the norm if it doesn't fit the norm then it is abnormal right so memorize these numbers we will come to the abnormal bleeding because there is on sunday will cover abnormal bleeding sometimes comes early sometimes let's give this scenario we have time today is what let's say jule 1st right you had your cycle your hanafi pay attention to this this will help you you're hanafi you normally have regular cycle your cycle usually come every 22 days that's your period right so may 1st you got your cycle and it was completely normal and by 7 day you were free of bleeding alhamdulillah then on may 18 write the number because you need to write the number you got bleeding write that down what is this bleeding bleeding it's not spotting it's bleeding i have to put a pad i go to the bathroom sister haifa and there's blood coming i started my cycle june 1st i finished june 7 7 june 18 i have bleeding what is this bleeding pray or don't pray that's the question how many of you say pray why because it is not 15 why do a student answer why the rest of you didn't answer [Laughter] she's still doing the math that's okay so this is how you'd calculate literally write it down we have even in medicine menstrual calendar we call it i tell the woman take it for three months and come back to me and i will look but in ramadan this is exactly what i do i write it down and i count it i tell the woman tell me if she fin if she started she finished her cycle day seven and she prayed walilla then she got her period bleeding that's bleeding right june 30th what does she do with this bleeding it's earlier than my cycle sister haifa i was supposed to get my cycle july 5th but i got it june 5th 30th she finished june 7th write that down she finished june 7th and she started praying everything she's supposed to get her cycle right july 5th but she got her bleeding june 28th what is this june 28 bleeding i can't hear you and and it is bleeding it's bleeding it's a flow all this cycle or not cycle because it is more than 15 days did you get it because that's very common scenario in the summer you travel you go through exhaustion you get sick you get fever the pattern change temporary not all the time temporary change yes sister very good i was waiting for this question so when you tell me from when do i start counting you you you prayed let's say you took a russo and you prayed mahrab from there it starts you went to of whatever that time so when did you start praying or when did you start not praying so you put it on a calendar these days there is all this i period all these things but if you are still a visual person you want to write it down just right today a menstrual cycle mahrup time because it's 24 hours day and night till clear i think i think you got it now with the examples one scenario because we have some so the same scenario the woman got her cycle june 1st finished june 7 same scenario june 28 she's seeing she just told you i'm bleeding what do you tell her i just talk to me it's okay if wrong it's okay good if it's right alhamdulillah what do you tell her she texted you and says you went to this class and i heard you learned a lot don't disappoint me right and then she sent you the scenario this is very common question by the way so june 1st i got my cycle my usual time finished june 7 took my result time start praying john 28 i start bleeding that's her message what do you answer i tricked you and very easily you are tricked no it's not it's the same scenario why i'm saying it first question you have to ask tell me more about the bleeding is it's bleeding because we women refer to bleeding anything we see so if she just saw a spot on 28 it what is this a spot is it cycle not yet there's no flu so make sure you ask this question is it's bleeding and she says yes yes you know what i asked so are you putting pads you said yes i said how much blood in that pad what time you put the pad and when did you take it out please forgive me when you go to the bathroom do you wipe and see the blood or you it comes out you see the questions i'm asking because i'm telling her pray or don't pray me allah forgive me and if she prayed and this is her cycle yahweh because she disobeyed allah and if she didn't pray and this is not her cycle again yahweh because she disobeyed allah do you see the point so ask as many questions as you can before you give your father even if she tells you it's bleeding because i see it in my office so sorry if i'm breathing she comes to the office where is the bleeding drops because the way we perceive things is different so always ask timing when was your last cycle how often you get your cycle are you on any medications have this happened before what's the type of bleeding what color pads get as many questions as you get and write it down and then calculate and then insha allah you get even if you gave the wrong answer but you did your you literally tried your best to get all the information like any other question where is uh yes good question very good question i'll come to it but i just want you so let's say june 1st to june 7 june 9th she gets bleeding very good question what is the first question you have to ask before you give your hokum what kind of blood or spot she said no it's a bleeding society that's bleeding what is the second question you ask i'm sorry one of you please i'm sorry excellent what is your pattern what is your pattern usually is this is normal for you how many of us have bleeding for three four days and then two days nothing and then comes back again that's my usual versus if she tells you never i've never had this before this is my first time what are you gonna tell her exactly you can tell how you have to pray or not right if this is the first time usually you will tell her no because most scholars will tell you if it changes it needs to change for three months because period changes but if she tells you that's my usual oh sometimes i get this sometimes every couple of months i get this to say but what's the answer that's your cycle so yani what i'm trying to tell you and i think allah made it easier be that you now learn to ask more investigate get to the details and even if you say let me double check before you give an answer then you say don't pray and she has to or the other way around questions yes perfect so very common scenario people who have pcos people have polycystic disease of the ovary she missed two or three months and then she starts bleeding what do i do come on answer me it's two three months two or three months only two months and she starts bleeding smells like cycle it's heavy so what is that first day don't wait yet she's bleeding now today she told you she missed two or three days two to three months meaning she has a regular cycle but this time she missed it for two months and now she's bleeding allah how you confused you are i love it so she is i'm not saying you but in the question you you said so i normally get okay i normally get my cycle first five days of the month one of them three four so i got january i got february i got march usual guess what i missed april and may and now june 5th i have it first question does it look like your cycle yes it is number two medically are you pregnant that's when the menstrual lady can can the pregnant lady can masturbate right but the most important thing is like if it looks like your cycle it is your cycle or how long now she's bleeding so june 5th she's bleeding you said it is your cycle for how long god i confused you again so june 15 she calls you right so june 7 she saw june 5th she had her bleeding looks like cycle you told her it is your cycle june 15 she called you said sister i'm still bleeding what do i do what do you ask what do you ask what do you ask huh what what school of thought right she's a hanafi what do you say one more day and you're done ten days only she's not five more days remember this this is the scenarios may be different but the answers the principles are the same it's why i wanted you to learn the principles are the same make sure the bleeding fit their criteria of menstruation meaning flow blood not one spot and she panic number one is does she have regular psycho normally this woman and she remembers that's the easiest one follow your pattern she doesn't then you're gonna come what school of thought you are are you taking any medications are you pregnant so jenny most of the time if you follow this you will be able however i will highly recommend unless it's needed don't answer refer her to your alhamdulillah this is a community full of scholars refer her to don't be shy tell her send me the question i'll send it to him but don't answer if you're not sure please don't because you will be asked on day of judgment if you gave the wrong answer and this wrong answer is not you lose weight to eight calories this is pray or don't pray or fast or don't fast and marital relationship she said no she's in big trouble she said yes she's in a bigger trouble did you get my point yeah really i mean it's a serious the rulings related to my situation is serious that's why i told you we need to learn it clear i think we need to don't they come and pray here or no today is all for us i don't know you are the organizer we we like invaded the men masala in 20 minutes we'll take five more minutes so we can all get ready for maru any questions yes no you please do because she didn't say a thing i i see she's writing in hundreds absolutely you go with the majority of opinion which is the strongest so if she doesn't know remember i asked you do you pray with your socks or without so that's the easiest question because if she prays without the socks she is yeah so what i normally say is what is your imam because you follow your imam what is your imam do in your community i always tell the people don't uh make it harder on you your imam is maliki i'm assuming because he's from algeria or shafi i don't know right right so khalas when you ask him usually he will answer you according to his history you follow it but if she doesn't know she lives in alaska and there's nobody no whatever give her the the more the majority that's why i show you the majority like the three schools of thought 15 days only half you say 10 days right the majority of school says day and a half day and night only half you say three days so if she doesn't know you give her the stronger opinion yes now yes sister what's your name i love your question answers oh every one of you need to know the meaning of a name because the meaning of is choose the names for your children because they would have part of it to obey him to do what's pleasing to do everything that's good for you european yeah it's a very good question we're going to come to it when we talk about postnatal breathing but i will give you to it today so this is another common scenario you have two or three days of bleeding and a day or two nothing especially post partum very common that she thinks she's done she doesn't take hustle guess what so there is the three opinions of this one opinion says all of it is menstruation some open second opinion says that time is not menstruation another opinion says which is very interesting it says she counts the days of the bleeding as menstruation and she count and she add them till she gets to the maximum of the 10 days or the 15. i am from the opinion because medically it is all from menstruation because it's that time the uterus is not yet clean if you do ultrasound to that lady who is two days she bled and there is nothing if you do an ultrasound the lining is not yet thin so there's still some blood in there yes i'm not seeing this side the fan is blocking you ladies can't hear you habibat so okay so the question is do you have to wait for three months to see this is a pattern it depends on the scenario there is scenarios where this is the first time you're having your cycle so your daughter is not nine or ten right she has no period yet there's no cycle so if you've never had a bleeding before you have no idea what is your pattern right so you will follow and a few three days the first three days of breathing is not bleeding then you go for 10 days if you follow the other school of thought the first day you don't it's not your period yet if second day you're still bleeding that's your cycle for 15 days if it changes if it changes most scholars will say wait for three months before you change i follow this not because of that because medicine say that also medicines say three months usually your pattern will be fixed meaning one month i got a longer cycle that doesn't mean your cycle would be long that could be changes happen this month but if it's persist for three months then your cycle change changed and it's very common scenario by the way you get shorter you get longer the older the younger we get the the cycle changes after 30's also view after 30 or 35 it changes it becomes shorter meaning shorter span it comes instead of 30 days becomes 25 and with the woman panic i was like don't panic it changes it's very common at that time it's a lot of changes do you know now why it is so difficult and imam ahmad stayed nine years in the now you're all nodding your head honestly because no woman like the other subhanallah it's just i want you to learn the principle and then inshaallah it will be and if you came out of this class says i will never talk about menstruation i'll refer her to shaykh and i am done then you learned you absolutely you absolutely learned because you learned that this is way above my scope of knowledge the book that one the main book that i prepared this it's 1700 pages he looked at every hadith subhanallah phd thesis was he looked at every hadith everything and he analyzed it and that's weak and that's why and it's he went into details it's beyond the man actually it started me there's no woman did that but may allah would yes sure oh this is your oh she's your mom don't ask in front of your mom she will get very scared you should have send it to me inviting that's okay magically yes mom will say no that's my struggle in my office yes usually we like it to be regulated we like it to be really good because it's i mean i don't want to say medical things in front of everybody but in general having regular cycle is healthier than not having it for your body in general and by the way the body needs only four cycles a year yes i told you we need to we are kicked out magrul will be at 8 30. can you finish within five minutes i think we need to finish you are so sweet who's this boy what is that you are so sweet does that look here i love that i think we
