What is the ruling on a woman who performed Tawaf Al-Ifadah while doubting her purity due to secretions that continued after the cessation of menstrual bleeding, knowing that she had previously performed Umrah while ignorant of the ruling on the obligation of ghusl from masturbation?
If the discharge after menstruation is yellowish or brownish, it is considered menses, and the woman is not deemed pure until it ceases. However, if it is from the vaginal secretions, the woman is not considered menstruating, and she must perform ablution (wudu) for the circumambulation (). If the discharge is continuous, she should perform ablution after the prayer time begins and then may pray or circumambulate as she wishes until the time for that prayer ends. If she chooses not to perform ablution due to these secretions, it is permissible to adopt the view of Sheikh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah, who stated that ritual purity is not a condition for the validity of tawaf. As for doubt regarding the validity of tawaf after completing the ', it is not taken into consideration.
