Alhamdulillah, all things
in
praise. You to Allah subhana wa taala, by His grace and mercy, we
have reached lesson number 15. Lesson number 15 is the last
lesson in the bigger chapter dealing with ritual purification,
kita buchara, the last chapter basically deals with hay
in the muhtasar al Latif, the text is fairly brief
as well as the explanatory notes, but despite its brevity, it is
holistic and also very comprehensive. It provides us with
a good basic understanding of how works, what are the rules and
regulations? What are the laws of Allah subhana wa Taala regarding a
menstruating lady and associated Bloods? So what we have,
basically, are three simple things, if I may, give a brief
synopsis of the lesson beforehand
a lady as a normal cycle. We refer to that as haid, a literal
definition and technical definition will come now there are
times when a lady experiences chronic bleeding that we refer to
as istihova. Then also after childbirth, what we refer to as
postpartum bleeding, a lady may bleed that particular blood is
referred to as NIFA. So it's basically these three types of
blood in general that we are going to be talking about. Each of them
have their own idiosyncrasies in terms of rules and regulations,
minimum periods and maximum periods for that. Inshallah, we
turn to the text. I'm imagining that in today's class, we're going
to be focusing more on the slides as the slides lay out the work
in a in a presentable manner. So let's turn to the slides
immediately, and we're going to look at what we have. So first we
start off in terms of introduction by giving the meaning of the term
hail. So it has a literal meaning and it has a technical meaning,
literally, the term hail refers to saylan, which means to flow. If we
were to use that in a sentence, it would read as follows, harbal
Wadi, havaladi, the word Wadi refers to a valley. Harvaluadi,
the valley flowed with water, however, means to flow. So the
literal meaning of the word hay, ESA land, which means to flow. The
technical meaning, very importantly, reads as follows,
we're going to take it word for word be Italy. I'm going to break
it up, and then we're going to look at the definition provided
here. What does it say? Tamu, GB, Latin. It is a blood. Hay refers
to a blood, the flowing of a blood, what type of blood? Where
does the blood exit from? Damu jibi Latin. It is natural. Damu
jibi Latin, blood of
a lady that flows naturally. Yahudu mean Aksa Rahim in Mara.
Where does it exit from? It exists from the top of the ALA Sabil Seha
in a very healthy, natural way. I'm going to translate the word
ala sabili Saha. Ala upon Sabil path. Siha along the path of
health, in other words, naturally fiocating muscle setting. And this
flows in specific times, which we'll come to learn about in a
bit. So a translation for that technical definition reads as
follows. It is a natural form of blood that exits from the top of
the womb at specific times. And this is a natural phenomenon. It's
not something which is pattern natural or unnatural. And Allah
subhanaw taala knows, knows best. Now we know, in terms of a
definition,
every word in the definition plays a role. The definition seeks to be
inclusive and also exclusive. We're going to focus on the
exclusive part. When we read the definition of Haida, we said Damu
jibi Latin, and we said ala sabili Saha, something which happens?
Damoji be letting it is normal. Alasabilia, Saha, which naturally
flows. What happens if you have a flow of blood, but it is due to a
an illness?
What happens in that particular regard? So the close healthy
bleeding, as we learn from the next slide, the close healthy
bleeding, it excludes chronic bleeding. We're not going to refer
to that type of bleeding as hay. This chronic bleeding is referred
to as istehava, if you follow the slide. So the clause healthy
bleeding, that refers to hay. Now that clause it excludes chronic
bleeding. If you bleeding chronically when.
Not going to refer to that bleeding as hail. There is another
term that we use for that in terms of jurisprudence. The term used
for that is istihawa. Now, what is the definition of istihava? How
does istihava, that type of blood, differ from hail? It differs in
the following aspect. It is damujibi, Latin. It is natural.
It's not abnormal. So a lady has an irregular cycle that doesn't
make a an alien, Tamil, Latin. It is normal in a certain sense.
It exits la ala sabili Siha, but not due to
her experiencing optimum health, but it is actually due to a
particular ailment that she's now breeding chronically. And
therefore the definition reads as follows, blood that exits on the
last line of the slide, blood that exits due to an illness, not as a
natural cause of events. And Allah SWT knows as best. The next issue
we're going to be looking at, is the issue of the minimum age.
And here we're going to the text in terms of Al muhtaza, a lot of
what does the text say? The text says that the minimum, the minimum
age within a lady can experience her menses would be nine Luna
years. So here's a few considerations we need to keep in
mind. Number one is that time in relation to religion, we are
always going to be referring to the lunar calendar as opposed to
the solar calendar. Yes. Aloo, Naka, Anila, kuliya, mawaki, Tuli,
Nasi WA, it is a means of developing time frames. It is a
time frame. Time frame for what time frames for all forms of
worship. If you look at fasting, it is according to the lunar
calendar. If you look at the second month, it's according to
the lunar calendar. If we look at the months of Haiti is going to
the lunar calendar. So all religious acts, when we tie it
into a calendar, we're going to tie it into the lunar calendar.
Now, what is the minimum age? From an Islamic perspective, we're in a
lady bleeds, and we can consider that blood to be hive. What is the
minimum age when Lady can experience hype? The author says
this, ocin, nine years. What type of years comedy eating, lunar
years? Takadi, does it have to be exactly nine years? Or can it be
approximate? Our scholars say it can be approximate. So what is
meant by approximate? What is meant by approximate is that if
the blood comes out less than 16 days before her ninth lunar
birthday, so before a young girl's ninth lunar birthday 16 days, less
than 16 days she starts bleeding, then we're going to consider that
to be high if it comes out before that, let's say she is eight and a
half years and she starts bleeding. Is is that less than 16
days left for her ninth lunar birthday? No, that means we're
going to consider that blood to be ISTE. However, she doesn't meet
the minimum age that she qualifies to have height, and therefore
we're going to consider that to be isti hava a fairly simple and
straightforward issue, and ALLAH SubhanA knows, knows best. So the
next issue now we're looking at is we understand what the concept
height means.
We know the minimum age requirement for a lady to
experience her height. The third issue that we're going to look at
now would be that when a lady starts bleeding, what is the
minimum period or duration of height? That's what the author
discusses now in terms of
Buffalo, he says, wakalula, Hayley, yo moon, Wale, to the
least amount of hyd, the least amount of hay would be a day and a
night. In other words, 24 hours. So
in the bayanwa tarif, they provide a further explanation. And
explanation reads as follows, when we say a day in that, what do we
actually mean? Let's give another explanation. In other words, 24
hours. Abu Asmaa, a 24
hours in what sense, in a sense that the blood flows continuously?
What do we mean that the blood flows continuously? Blood is not
pouring out of a ladies, a private organ. What is meant by that the
blood flows continuously for a 24 hour period. What is meant there
by is low water at Kut Natan o Nawa, if she were to insert a
cotton wool into her private organ, let
alone if a lady starts bleeding and she bleeds for five hours.
And afterwards, when she inserts a cotton into her private organ, it
doesn't become solid. In other words, she's clean. She's not
bleeding any longer. No blood exits from her private organ.
Then, though she was bleeding for that five hours, the minimum, the
minimum period of haidas have been met, and therefore that cannot be
classified as hate. That is going to be classified as isti Hava and
Allah subhanaw taala knows, knows best. The next issue we look at
now would be the maximum duration of hate. The author said, what
highly Hamsa da as the extent, the fullest extent, the maximum period
within which a lady can experience a hailubi wax hamster, Asha yoman
would be 15 days for insider Aliyah, for what is the Harvard if
it goes beyond that, if it goes more than 15 days, then whatever
goes beyond 15 days is going to be considered as isti Hava, and Allah
SWT knows as best. So if the bleeding continues for more than
15 days, it is considered as isti Hava. We go to that. We go to the
next issue. Now even a suburb. So we spoke about the minimum
duration, which is 24 hours, and the maximum duration being 15
days. If a lady bleeds for 24 hours continuously, they said,
goes on to 48 hours, then that is going to be referred to as as a
height. If it goes over the 15 day period, then that is going to be
considered as istihava and Allah SWT knows that's best. The next
issue, what we're going to look at now would be the blood flow. We've
said that the minimum hyd that the lady can experience would be 24
hours. Does it have to be continuous, or what if she bleeds
intermittently? Both are possible. So now we look to the slides. The
slide says or reads as follows, the blood flow can either be
constant on the one side, or alternatively it could be
intermittent. If the blood flow is intermittent, we have a number of
scenarios here. We have three. I'm going to start on my left, and
it's possibly You're right. What does it say? If the entire
bleeding period, in other words, the irregular bleeds, amounts to
24 hours within the 15 days, then this is referred to as hype. So
very, very simply, a lady starts bleeding, and she bleeds
intermittently, and they say she bleeds for seven days. If she
calculates and puts everything together, it amounts to more than
24 hours. And that 24 hours, the 24 hours is over seven days, and
at seven days falls within the 15 day period. There's no question
about it, that is going to be considered as hay. Let's look to
the next option, if the entire bleeding period irregular breeds
does not amount to 24 hours within the 15 days. Then this is not
hive, but it's the harbor.
Now the entire bleeding period does not amount to 24 hours, so
she's bleeding intermittently within the 15 day period. But if
you put all of them together, it's only 20 hours of bleeding that
hasn't reached the minimum requirement for hive, and
therefore we're going to consider it to be isti Hava. The last
option here will be that if the entire bleeding period, irregular
bleeds, amounts to 24 hours, but goes beyond the 15 days, then this
is not hide, but rather ISTE. However, the next slide deals with
the general duration. We've looked now at the minimum duration of
haid. And we've looked at the maximum, minimum being 24 hours,
maximum being
15 days and 15 nights. What is the general duration of Haiti? The
general duration of hayd, says
wahari bu sit in a generally it is going to be six or seven days. And
this is based on an induction carried out by Imam as Shafi. Now
the definition, the next issue we're going to go to now would be
istihava. We're going to revisit the issue of istehava. We've gave
a definition in terms of the bayenu Talib. They provide
explanatory notes here. And following suit, Inshallah, we're
going to look at the definition and the ruling of istihar. Now, in
particular, number one UBI istehava is defined as chronic
blood. It exits from the bottom of the womb from a vein called the
our scholars are particularly there's a number of different
names that the scholars give to this particular vein where this
chronic blood comes from. According to bayanwa tarif, it is
defined as Adil. So importantly is the harbor is translated as
chronic blood. It comes from the bottom of the womb, from a vein
called Adil number two. Point number two would be isti Hava is
classified as a hadith. Dying
Hadith basically means a ritual form of impurity. Dying literally
means
perennial so had a time, literally translates as a perpetual state of
impurity. Incontinence, defined as the inability of the body to
control the evacuated functions of urination or defecation, is a.
Form of Hader, the in harder time. Normally, when we talk about the
hada time, we talk about the celestial boat, a person that is
unable to control the evacuative functioning of his body. In other
words, he cannot control his urine, his passing of water, and
he cannot contain his tool. What happens to such a person? Such a
person is referred to as a harder time he can pray, but there are
certain procedures that he needs to follow in order for his prayer
to be valid. Likewise, a mustahava, a lady experiencing
chronic bleeding, she's classified together with a person
experiencing incontinence, so she would have to take similar steps
and procedures in order for her prayer to be considered as valid.
So just imagine, here's a lady, she's experiencing chronic
bleeding. It's a harder dying. Does she have to pray? Yes, she
has to pray. She needs to take certain measures. So since it is a
harder time, it does not absolve one of those things that hide.
Absolves one of if a person has had then such a person cannot
fast. You absolve from fasting. Such a person need not pray. You
absolve of praying. In other words, it's impermissible
actually, for you to to pray. But the mustahava is considered
somebody who has a chronic bleeding problem, and a chronic
bleeding problem doesn't absolve, doesn't absolve the obligation of
prayer and fasting from attaching itself to to you. However, because
the person has this particular status, they have to follow
certain procedures. What are those procedures? We're going to look at
that in the next slide. Benela, subaha, no Tala. So here are the
purificatory measures that they mustahada must take. So number one
would be that off
after the time has entered, what she must do is she must wash her
private parts, number one. Number two is she must stuff the opening,
in other words, the opening of a private organ with cotton, or the
likely of, in other words, ascendant retail in today's time,
except if it harms her, in which case it is not compulsory. Or
alternatively, she is fasting, in which case, she must not insert
anything into the opening, because that is going to break her fast.
And Allah SWT knows his best. If the stuffing does not suffice,
then she must tie a band around her waist. Modern day underwear
adequately serves this particular function. So in a nutshell,
basically, what does the lady have to do? She must wash her private
parts, and then she must insert some cotton wool into her private
parts. And if inserting the cotton wool does not suffice, in olden
days, they would tie a band around their waist. But in current times,
modern day underwear would suffice. Thereafter, she must
perform more rule, after the time has set in, she going to perform
with all before the time has set in, and then hasten to perform the
salah. If she delays for a reason unrelated to Sarah, then she must
repeat the entire process, and very importantly, a new dressing
in Tahara is required for every Salah. So this is the very simple
but somewhat detailed
steps and procedures that aims to have a mistake in order for her to
perform her Salah and Allah SWT knows knows best. The next issue
that we're going to be dealing with would be what is rendered
impermissible due to Hayden janaba. So what we're doing here,
basically, is we pass it in, or we packaging Haida and janaba
together. If a person, a lady, is in a state of haid, or
alternatively, she's in a state of janaba, or a male is in a state of
janaba, husband and wife have had conjugal relations, and now they
find themselves in a state of greater ritual impurity. There are
certain things which are prescribed upon them. What are
those things? The author speaks to those things now, and he says,
waya home with Hayley, while Janab
becomes impermissible due to hay and janaba. What becomes
impermissible? He lists three
things. The first being a Salah to the prayer. What powerful? The
second being circum ambulation, wama Sul, mushafi wahamlu, and the
last one he mentions here would be touching the Quran and carrying
the Quran. They are impermissible at this particular stage. The
author doesn't mention the proofs substantiating these rulings,
because we have already discussed it earlier on, but for our
benefit,
and repetition is very beneficial. I reproduced those proofs over
here. So the first thing is that it's not permissible for a person
in a state of Hive or janaba to pray. Why is that? Because the
Prophet saw them said, la tu kobalu, sorry that a prayer is not
accepted if it's not done whilst in a state of ritual purification.
The second thing which is prescribed on these two type
persons would be to circumambulate. Why is that?
Because the Prophet saw him said, Al tawafu haul el Kaaba, Miss
lusaia. When you circumambulate around the Kaaba, it is like you
are.
With her, with her, with her blood. So if a lady is certain
that she will not contaminate the masjid, then it is my crew for her
to pass through when there is no need. So now scholars are
unpacking again, the detail. If she's certain that she's going to
sully the mosque by passing through, then it is not
permissible. It's impermissible. How long for her to pass through
the Masjid? Scenario number two, if she is certain that she will
not contaminate the masjid, and there's no need for her to pass
through, then it is makru, in other words, undesirable, which
means that if she if she finds an alternate route, then she will be
rewarded for that. But if she passes through the if she passes
through the machine, then it is going to be considered makru, but
she won't be punished for it. Number two, if she is certain that
she will not contaminate the machine and there's a need for it
to pass through, then it is not considered makru. And Allah SWT
knows knows best. Now, this particular rule we were saying
exclusive to a lady experiencing amensis, but the principle here
applies to anybody who may study the masjid, whether it be a male
or a female, that they may study the masjid, the same rule applies
to them. So male person, he knows that there's dirt on his clothing,
and if he's going to walk through the masjid, then that dirt is
going to contaminate the flow of the masjid, then it is
impermissible, like it is impermissible for a lady to pass
through the masjid whilst knowing that she's going to contaminate,
she fears that she's going to contaminate with blood. The same
applies to any other impurity and to any other person carrying an
impurity that he or she knows they're going to sell in the
masjid, thereby, and ALLAH SubhanA knows what's best. The reasoning
here would be Sienna to Masjid and lukhov to preserve the masjid from
any type of dirt, and Allah SWT, we continue. And the next, number
three, that which is rendered impermissible due to high
exclusively. Number three would be while estimator, oh female, a lady
is married. She goes into a menses. What becomes impermissible
istinta, from the word Tamat from the word Mata, which means
enjoyment. To derive enjoyment from that which lies between the
area
of the navel and the knee. In other words, the area between the
navel and the knee. It's not permissible to derive enjoyment
there from and Allah SWT knows, knows best. Now, when we look at
the concept of istinka deriving benefit from that which lies
between the navel and the knees, a person, by way of example, the
husband, can derive enjoyment from that which lies between the navel
and the knee in one of two ways, either by way of sexual
* or other than sexual *. So we're going to
focus on by way of sexual *. Can a husband derive
enjoyment from his menstruating wife,
from that area that lies between the navel and the knee, and what
type of enjoyment is he deriving? He's having conjugal relations
with it. What is the ruling thereof? The ruling thereof is
that it's completely impermissible. What is the proof
for that? The proof comes in the form of the verse mentioned in the
slide, whereas Anu Naka, Ani Mahir, they ask you about a lady
while she's in a state of menses, Kul Hua, and then say, it is a
discomfort,
so steer clear from woman folk in when they find themselves in them.
And says, In other words, do not have conjugal relations with them.
Wala tak Rabun na ha taon, don't come near them. In what sense, in
a sense of having conjugal relations with them. Hat Tao,
*, until they are pure, in other words, until the blood comes
to a I stop. Faydatom Allah, not only must the blood come to a
stop, but they must take a purificatory path, and thereafter,
it now becomes permissible for a husband to have conjugal relations
with his wife. So that is the ruling in a particular regard.
What about deriving benefit from that which lies between the navel
and the knee, but not by way of sexual *, other than
sexual *, our scholars say the following detail apply. So
either the lady places a covering over the area that lies between
the navel and the knee, or there's no covering. If there's no
covenant deriving
benefit from the area that lies between the navel and the knee
whilst not having sexual *, and there's no
covenant, that's impermissible. If there is a covering, then that
would be permissible. And Allah SWT knows what's best. The next
issue is a very important issue, and talks about estimta. So istin
Ta is not permissible. What is meant by the concept of estimta
estimator literally means enjoyment, and therefore the
prohibition covers touching without a screen. And.
And looking, and this is very important to understand. So istita
deriving enjoyment. That is what is prohibited. So you, as a
husband, by way of example, can derive enjoyment in one of two
ways, either touching that particular area without a screen,
alternatively, simply looking at that particular area. So looking
and touching. When it is done with desire, then it is considered to
be prescribed. It is impermissible. However, it is
permissible to do without, without the without desire, without the
desire, impermissible to do without desire. And Allah SWT
knows knows knows best. The next issue we're looking at would be
the narration, which substantiates the aforementioned ruling. What is
that narration and I started, Allah anhakarat,
Aisha rodran says, Can itana? Either? Can it however, one of us,
when we would enter into a state of menstruation, when we wish to
enter into our cycle. We started bleeding for arawal rasulah, the
Prophet SAW, intended to fundle with her, to engage in a form of
intimacy with her. The Prophet SAW used to do the following Amara and
tezira. The Prophet sallallahu used to order her to put on an
Israel In other words, a lower garment, and then you buy sugar,
and then the Prophet saw them would fondle her. What a yukum.
Aisha adds, what a yukum, and who of you? In other words, none of
you could control his sexual desires as the Prophet saw them
could. So. Aisha is issuing a warning, and the warning is that,
yes, it is permissible, but you need to be able to control
yourself. And who could control himself better than what the
Prophet SAW could. And Allah SWT knows, knows best. There are
certain other further prohibitions, and now we're coming
towards the tale in our class be the last. The following are also
considered to be prohibited due to height number four, issuing a
divorce if the marriage has been consummated and it is not
initiated by the lady in terms of a paying for divorce. In other
words, it is not a hula in that particular regard, then it
wouldn't be proscribed. In other words, the wife comes to the
husband and says, I hereby give you 100,000 rands or $10,000 in
order for you to divorce me. She may be in a state of hayb, but
because she is initiating the divorce, it is not considered to
be haram for the husband to divorce her in that particular
state. However, if it is as per normal where the husband is
issuing the divorce, then it is haram for him to issue the divorce
while she is in a state of hate. And Allah SWT knows those best.
The fifth issue which is prohibited for a lady in the
menses would be
ritual purification. In other words, for her to take a hustle
with the intention of worship. So it is not permissible for a lady
to take a Russell with the intention of a Russell of Tatra,
of purifying herself while she's in a state of of hay. Yes, there
are certain exceptions. Those exceptions would be the
purificatory path in terms of Hajj, and the purificatory path in
terms of their aids and Allah SWT knows, knows what's best. The next
issue we're looking at would be the ruling of * during
Haydn. It is proscribed by what is the ruling while jimafil hai, our
scholars say that having conjugal relations with a lady while she's
in a state of hayath in a menses is considered to be a sin. What
are the consequences of perpetration of the above. Number
one, the perpetrator, the husband, is considered a sinner, and the
person considering it permissible, despite understanding the
prohibition, is considered a a non believer. So a rather grave issue
we have at hand the last the next issue, very briefly, which father
deals with would be the cover the repaying of religious observances
for a menstruating lady, what happens her hate is over. She's
had Hey for six days or for seven days, and now she's in a clean
period. What are her obligations? The author says,
Excuse me, why? Aliha usomi ramasala, it is compulsory upon
her to repay the first of the month of Ramadan to the exception
of Salah. And what is the proof in that particular record? The proof
is a narration narrated on the authority of muada. She says, Sal
to Aisha. I asked Aisha. Allah, AJ,
what is the reason that a menstruating woman completes the
fastness which she repays the fast that she missed while she was in
her height? Wala, takudi, Asana, but.
She does not complete the prayer.
Call it
Aisha Rana says, Can a you see buna halika, fanuk, marubekawa is
own water be cover is Salah.
She said, we passed through the spirit of main situation. In other
words, we experiences the menses like you did, and you had the
question, and we had, perhaps not a similar question, but we were
told, and we were ordered to complete the fast, but we're not
ordered to complete the prayers. And Allah SWT knows, knows best
waiver Qatar, a demo Hall, alosul.
The next thing is that there are certain things that are indeed
permissible. When the blood stops, they are here. We have an
important consideration, and that is, when a lady, a lady, she
starts bleeding, and then she stops bleeding. When she stops
bleeding, then certain rules apply. And
the certain rules apply in terms of permissibility, owner only
after she has taken a purificatory bath. So the author is going to
speak about that. Now in relation to the verse which we quoted
earlier on fahida, tata Haruna, the verb they would be Tata harna.
So there are more letters to that particular verb and more letters
in a verb, the rootlets are the same, but the more letters you
add, the greater the intensity of the meaning. So the meaning in
this particular regard would be faithra, not only when the blood
stops no but when the blood stops and a person had performed the
purificatory path, then only certain things become permissible.
So it's almost like a two phase, very much like the Hajj. If you
think about entering into the state of Ihram, when you exit the
state of Ihram, there's a
minor exit and a major exit. Or if you wanted to an incomplete exit
and a complete exit, there are two phases to it. Is a transition.
Likewise, when a lady comes out of a hide, then is a transition. The
first point is when the blood stops. The second point is when
she takes a purificatory bath. So when the blood stops, certain
rulings kicking to the exclusion of others. Then when she takes the
purificatory bath, that's when she has completely transitioned out of
hybrid, and now she's into a a clean period. So different sets of
rules apply. Let's look to the text now behind so much so when
the blood comes to a stop, it is permissible for her to fast prior
to the also. So let's say, just before Fajr,
on a fasting day in the month of Ramallah, her blood stops,
and by the time true Dawn sits in she hadn't had the opportunity to
perform a purificatory path. Is the fast going to be valid or not?
Yes, her fast is going to be valid. Why? Because fasting is
valid by virtue of the blood coming to a a stop. And Allah SWT
knows, knows best. So there are certain things that are in the
permissible. When the blood stops, they are fasting. Number one,
issuing a divorce. The blood is stopped. Asmaa wants to divorce
his wife, but he doesn't want to give a bit a haram form of
divorce. He doesn't want to give an innovative, impermissible form
of divorce. He's waiting for a blood to stop. The moment the
blood stops and now he issues a divorce. That particular divorce
is going to be considered as a palak Sunni, that that is the
optimum way. If it is that a person wants to issue a divorce,
then the optimum way would be to be in a clean period in which he
has not had * with her. So when the blood stops, the
husband may issue a divorce, and a divorce will not be considered
Balad be the aim maharam And Allah SWT knows what's best. The third
issue which becomes permissible for a lady. So the first would be,
it's permissible for her too fast. Once the blood stops, the husband
can issue her a divorce. Number three is she can now perform
Tahara, which is a ritualistic act of worship, not when she's in the
state of hate, but when the blood stops. Now she can perform the
purificatory path, and ALLAH SubhanA knows what's best. The
remaining acts become, remain impermissible until after
purificatory path, and Allah SWT knows what's best. Waya Hamo bin
NIFA, the next issue we're going to go into now would be the issue
of nifas. The author says waya homo benifa
becomes impermissible by nifas. Nifas is postpartum bleeding. A
lady gives childbirth. After childbirth, blood starts flowing.
That blood is referred to as nifas. It is referred to as
postpartum bleeding. Wa, Yahoo, benifas becomes impermissible due
to nifas. My Yahuwah will hide that which is rendered
impermissible due to hay when nifas, what is the definition of
nifas? Wa dari Badal will add it refers to that blood.
Which exits, which comes out of the childbirth. Very importantly,
now, in order for the blood to be considered NIFA, as we can clean
and surmise from the definition, and the closer the definition, in
order for us to consider
blood that comes out of the childbirth, in order for us to
consider it as NIFA, certain conditions need to be met. What
are those conditions? The baby should have exited completely. The
blood flowing between the birth of twins, by way of example, is thus
not considered as NIFA. So nifas is blood that flows after
childbirth, after the child or children have exited completely
from the womb. The blood that flows thereafter is referred to as
NEFAs, the blood that flows between birth that's not
considered to be NEFAs and Allah knows best, the blood must start
flowing within a 15 day period after childbirth, otherwise it
will be considered as hate. A lady gives a dry birth, by way of
example, 13 days later, she starts bleeding. Do we consider that as
NEFAs? Yes, we do, because it's within the 15 day period. However,
if 15 days pass, 20 days later, she starts bleeding. We're not
going to refer to that as
NEFAs. We're going to refer to that as hate and Allah swatted
nose knows best,
the blood must flow,
must start flowing within a 15 day period after childbirth. Otherwise
it will be considered high. The last point I have here should not
be here. I will omit that inshallah from the from the slight
baraka of ekum NEFAs. What are the time frames for for NEFAs? The
time frames these read as follows, the least NEFAs is one moment. The
maximum nifas is 60 days, and the average NIFA is 40 days. And Allah
SWT knows, knows best when we talk about clean period timeframes, the
least clean period between height is 15 days. Very importantly,
there is no maximum clean period between menstruations. A lady
bleeds for seven days. She can be clean for an entire year and then
bleed for another seven days. That is quite possible. The average
NEFAs, the average NEFAs is 23 to 24 days, and Allah SWT knows
that's best. This brings us to the end of kitabul Haida. We managed
to do it in one go. Normally, our classes aren't that long. It's for
15 minutes. This class was going on to 43 minutes. Alhamdulillah, a
lady, been here. Amati to Musa the hearty been Amati to the Musa hat.
We thank Allah for enabling us to having completed this lesson,
being the last paragraph and to meet again. Our next lesson would
be kita
