Is it obligatory to make up the prayer of the day if menstruation began at the time of Dhuhr prayer and then stopped on the following day?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Blood that appears before the regular menstrual period is considered menses if it continues for a day and a night, and if it occurs after fifteen days from the cessation of the previous blood. Otherwise, it is considered istihadah (irregular bleeding), and one must make up the prayers for that day.
