Is it necessary to change clean bed sheets and scarves after haidh?

· 4 Shaʻban 1438 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I have heard that after the haidh is completed, a person may no longer sleep on the same bedsheets, even though the sheets are not messed. The sheets must be changed before making ghusl or if ghusl is taken and the sheets have not been changed, one may not sleep on the bed unless the sheet is removed. Also further this was applied to any scarves or burkas that one may have worn during the haidh for even a short period. Is this correct?

Answer

This is not correct.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
