(If the blood has the signs of haidh and the same signs remain for 13 days, then it is as if there were no signs). If the blood has no signs of haidh then the way to calculate the duration is: A woman should consult her family, to verify the normal time duration of the period in the family. Once she has a number. Then she should. Use the number 7 to calculate the # of days of haidh and the # of days of ‘Jum`*’ and the # of days of istihadha.
(This will be more clear when we get into different scenarios) Jum`*: Jum` means following the rules of both haidh and istihadha at the same time. In the days of Jum`, a woman cannot do the things that are haram in haidh but must do all the things that are wajib (obligatory) in istihadha. Since salat is obligatory in istihadha along with ghusl (ritual bath) she must perform ghusl and salat. Since sex is haram (prohibited) in haidh then she should refrain from sex.
Some scenarios of Mudhtariba: Disordered Duration Scenario 1: This woman in the past 2 months has seen blood on different dates and the blood flow did not have a fixed duration. She saw blood for 13 days and out of those 13 days, there were 8 days where she saw signs of haidh. In this situation, she should consider 8 days as haidh and the rest as istihadha. Scenario 2: This woman in the past 2 months has seen blood on different dates and the blood flow did not have a fixed duration.
Then this month she saw blood for 13 days, and the blood had no signs of haidh. In this situation she must consult her family, to verify the normal time duration of ‘haidh’ in the family. Let us suppose the number of days that make up the normal duration of haidh in her family is 5 days. Since 5 days is less than 7 (the number 7 is what we discussed in ‘B’ above), she should follow these guidelines: The duration of her haidh is 5 days.
The duration of ‘Jum`” is 2 days (Difference between 5 and 7). The duration of istihadha is 6 days. The total duration of blood flow is 13 days. To be continued!
