Bleeding after miscarriage
Question
I want to ask, I miscarried my baby 2 weeks ago. Bleeding turns into brown discharge. Should I offer namaz with the brown discharge?
Answer
If the limbs of the fetus were not formed and the bleeding and discharge conform with the days of haidh then consider it as haidh and the rest as istihaadhah.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
