The answer

The minimum duration of menstruation, according to the majority of scholars, is one day and one night. Blood that ceases before this period is not considered menstruation, and its rulings do not apply to it. The cessation of blood means complete dryness, such that the area emerges unstained by blood or a brownish discharge. Therefore, if the blood discharged from the wife stops before one day and one night, it is not considered menstruation, and intercourse with her is permissible. However, if the blood continues for a day and a night, then it is menstruation. If it stops thereafter, either by dryness or by seeing the white discharge, she is considered pure, and intercourse with her is permissible.
