The question

Is it normal for a girl to experience spotting a week after her menstruation has ended? Is she pregnant? How can she purify herself and pray while still experiencing bleeding? Is it permissible for her to stop praying in this situation? And will her feeling of aversion towards menstruation lead her to Hellfire?

The answer

First: The spotting that is not considered menstruation may be due to stress, exercise, or other reasons, and it has no bearing on pregnancy. It must be washed off and one must pray.

Second: Menstruation is something Allah has decreed for the daughters of Adam, and it entails ease. The distress and emotional agitation a woman experiences during menstruation are natural. Disliking menstruation does no harm as long as the woman acknowledges the command and wisdom of the Shariah. This is called "natural dislike" and does not entail sin, similar to disliking fighting while submitting to Allah's decree. The more a servant's faith increases, the more their soul finds tranquility and their heart becomes content.
