Does the continuous discharge of fluid experienced by a pregnant woman invalidate her prayer if it occurs during the time of prayer?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

When fluid is discharged, ablution is nullified, and one must stop the prayer, perform ablution anew, and repeat the prayer. This is unless the fluid is continuous and does not stop for a period sufficient to perform ablution and prayer, in which case it takes the ruling of the woman with perpetual menses. She should perform ablution after the time for prayer begins and then pray as much as she wishes with that ablution; whatever exits from her during the prayer does not harm her.
