Is ghusl obligatory after the discharge of light and dark yellow secretions after the ninth day of menstruation, knowing that there is temporary dryness that does not last a full day, and that the questioner follows the Maliki school of thought?

The maximum duration of menstruation is fifteen days according to the majority of scholars. If the blood exceeds the usual duration, it is still considered menses, as long as it does not exceed fifteen days. Yellowish and brownish discharges connected to the blood are considered menses. If a woman sees purity by one of its two signs (dryness or white discharge) after her usual period has ended, then yellowish and brownish discharges are not considered menses. Dryness is a valid sign of purity, even if its duration is short. If a woman sees dryness after her usual period, even for a short time, and then sees yellowish or brownish discharge, it is not considered menses. As for the difference between those who advocate for "pulling" (al-sahb) and those who advocate for "patching" (al-talfīq), its implication appears in the obligations a woman performed during the period of purity interspersed within menstruation. Those who advocate for "pulling" oblige her to make up for them, while those who advocate for "patching" validate her acts of worship and do not oblige her to make them up.
