Does a woman with vaginal discharge take the ruling of one afflicted with constant incontinence, and does she perform ablution for every prayer after its time has begun and then pray, even though the discharge is not continuous all the time?

One afflicted with incontinence is he from whom ritual impurity continuously exits at all times, such that he finds no duration sufficient for performing prayer with proper purification, or the time of its cessation is erratic. If you know a specific time when the emission of wind ceases, then wait, perform ablution, and pray during that time. Otherwise, your ruling is that of one afflicted with incontinence, with the necessity of resisting and disregarding obsessive thoughts.
