This kind of discharge is passed a great deal by women. It is taahir (pure) and not naajis (impure), and there is no need to do ghusl because of it. All it does is invalidate wudoo’.
Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allaah have mercy on him) was asked about it and he replied:
After researching the matter, it seems to me that the discharge that is passed by women, if it does not come from the bladder but rather from the womb, then it is taahir…
This is the ruling on this discharge with regard to tahaarah (purity) – it is taahir and does not make the clothes or the body naajis.
With regard to wudoo’, the ruling is that it invalidates wudoo’, unless it is continual, in which case it does not invalidate wudoo’, but the woman should not do wudoo’ for each prayer until after the time for the prayer has begun, and she has to use a pad.
But if it starts and stops, and it usually stops at the time of prayer, then she should delay the prayer until the time when it stops, so long as there is no fear that the time for prayer will end. If she fears that she will miss the prayer, then she should do wudoo, use a pad and pray. It makes no difference if there is a little or a lot, because it is all coming from the front passage so a little or a lot invalidates wudoo’.
Majmoo’ Fataawa Ibn ‘Uthaymeen, 11/284
Using a pad means placing a piece of rag or cotton etc in the vagina so that less of this discharge will come out, and to prevent it getting on to the clothes or body.
Based on this, there is no need to do ghusl because of this discharge, and it does not affect the fast. With regard to prayer, wudoo’ must be done for each prayer after the time for the prayer has begun, if the flow is continual.
And Allaah knows best.

Menstruation and Post-Natal bleeding, - Dought& clear, - * She gets a sticky white discharge before her period and a week afterwards

Share

One or two days before my period comes, I get a sticky white discharge, and again a week after the period ends. What is the ruling on praying and fasting on these days? Do I have to repeat wudoo’ for minor impurity only or for major impurity?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Firstly:
This sticky white substance comes under the same ruling as other secretions, and is subject to further discussion.
If it is continuous, then it comes under the same ruling as urinary incontinence, so you have to do wudoo’ for each prayer after the time for it begins, and these discharges will not matter after that, even if that happens during prayer.
If it is not continuous, then there is a difference of opinion as to whether it invalidates wudoo’. The majority of scholars are of the view that it does invalidate wudoo’, but some of the scholars are of the view that it does not invalidate it, because there is no evidence to that effect. But to be on the safe side, one should follow the view of the majority.
Secondly:
This discharge is taahir (pure) according to the most correct view, so there is no need to wash them off one’s clothes. This is the view of Abu Haneefah and Ahmad, and it is one of the two views narrated from al-Shaafa’i, and was regarded as correct by al-Nawawi.
This view was also favoured by Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen. (May Allaah have mercy on them all.)
He said inal-Sharh al-Mumti’(1/329): If these discharges come from the vagina, then they are taahir (pure), because they are not waste products of food or drink, so they are not urine. The basic principle is there is no najaasah (impurity) unless evidence is established to that effect. And if a man has intercourse with his wife, he does not have to wash his penis or his garment if anything gets onto them; if it were naajis (impure) then that would imply that maniy (semen) would become naajis, as he result of being contaminated with it. End quote.
See alsoal-Majmoo’(1/406);al-Mughni(2/88).
Thirdly:
These discharges do not affect the fast.
To sum up: you may fast and pray, and you should do wudoo’ when these discharges come, unless they are continuous and last all day, in which case you should do wudoo’ for each obligatory prayer when the time for it begins, and you can pray with this wudoo’ whatever naafil prayers you wish, until the time for the prayer for which you did wudoo’ ends.
And Allaah knows best.

Menstruation and Post-Natal bleeding, - Dought& clear, - * Does a menstruatingwoman have to change her clothes once her period ends?

Share

Does a menstruating woman have to change her clothes after her period ends, if no blood or najaasah (impurity) has gotten on them?.
Praise be to Allaah.
She does not have to do that, because menses does not make the body naajis (impure); rather menstrual blood only makes naajis what it touches. Hence the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) enjoined women, if any menstrual blood gets on their clothes, to wash them and pray in their garments.

For children, - Hejab Stories: Science Behind the Veil (Hijab, Hejab)(Beautiful Stories for Muslim Women)

Share

There are number of health and moral benefits that wearing the veil (Hijab, Hejab) can provide. The moral duty of wearing the veil (Hijab, Hejab) in Islam is an often discussed topic among Muslim women. However, little has been written about scientific reasons that the veil (Hijab, Hejab) is beneficial for society. There are, in fact, a number of health benefits that wearing the veil can provide, as well as many behavioral science studies that suggest that the veil (Hijab, Hejab) is the best attire (clothes) for women.
Protecting the head is very important from a health perspective. Results Of medical tests show that 40-60% of body heat is lost through the head, so persons wearing head coverings during cold months are protected about fifty-percent more than those who do not. Chinese and Muslim medical texts take this concept even further. In the Hua Di Nei Jing (The Yellow Emperor's Classic on Internal Medicine), wind is said to cause sudden changes within the body and shaking, swaying and other movements that potentially upset the body's equilibrium; thus, creating bad health.
These texts attribute the common cold to wind elements entering the body and causing the typical symptoms of sneezing and a Runny nose. In the traditional Islamic medical texts of Al-Jawziyya, we can find numerous references to the "four elements" of fire, water, air and earth and how these affect the body in adverse ways. In particular, we are advised to stay away from drafts and protect our heads in wind, breezes, drafts and cold weather.
All outdoor workers should wear some sort of head covering:
For this reason, protecting the head is even more important in warm weather. V.G. Rocine, a prominent brain research specialist, has found that brain Phosphorus melts at 108 degrees; a temperature that can be easily reached if one stays under the hot sun for any length of time without a head covering. When this happens, irreversible brain damage, memory loss and loss of some brain functions can result. Although this example is extreme, Brain damage can still be measured in small degrees from frequent exposure to and overheating of the head. Bernard Jensen, a naturopath and chiropractor states that this is because the brain runs on the mineral phosphorus, which is very affected by heat.
Hygienic Purposes:
All public should wear a veil (Hijab, Hejab) or head-covering workers serving society to ensure cleanliness and purity. Workers in a number of professions wear "veils" - nurses, fast food workers, and deli Counter workers, restaurant workers and servers, doctors, health care providers and many more. In fact, when we compare the number of workers who cover their heads to the number who do not, we find that more people probably cover their heads than do not.
Female Psychological Balance:
Covering the hair can also have a beneficial effect on the female psyche as well. Studies of women being interviewed for jobs show that there is a high correlation between what they wear and their perceptions of how successful they will be in their interviews. There are many more examples of how what we wear can influence how we act.
Wearing a veil (Hijab, Hejab) can serve to remind women of their religious duties and behavioral expectations. It can also serve as a reminder to women that we are not only individuals, but also representatives and diplomats of our "Ummah."
