What is the ruling on prayer, fasting, and intercourse for a woman who has experienced continuous bleeding, predominantly brownish discharge, for over a month, after receiving an injection to prevent pregnancy that altered the duration of her usual menstrual cycle?
The majority opinion permits sexual intercourse with a woman experiencing istihadah (post-menstrual bleeding). To clarify the distinction between the rulings of menstruation (hayd) and istihadah, and the ruling if bleeding continues beyond a woman's regular cycle, please refer to the relevant fatwas.
