Bleeding after a miscarriage

· 21 Jumada II 1440 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I was 5 and a half weeks pregnant and my pregnancy terminated naturally without having a sound ultrasound evidence. Only the placenta was formed. Is it obligatory for me to complete 40 days of nifaas?

Answer

No.

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