ANSWER:

If the spotting comes before the flow of blood of menses, this is not part of it. You should pray and fast as usual.

But if it comes during the menses or after it before seeing your purity, it is part of menses, unless it exceeds 15 days.

Purity is identified by seeing a white thread like discharge or by experiencing complete dryness. If you saw your purity once the flow of blood has stopped, you may take ghusl and disregard any spotting that comes afterwards as nothing, being keen to renew your wudhu before each prayer.

I have a problem with determining purity after menses. When the flow of blood stops I don’t see dryness or a white thread or discharge. When I wipe I see brown discharge which gets lighter over time and this lasts for a couple of days after the blood. My period usually lasts 7 days but I’m confused about this. JazakAllah

I didn’t fast this Ramadan because I’m on medication for Tuberculosis. After that I couldn’t fast on the day of Arafah as I was on my period, and I might not be able to fast two days of Ashura because it will fall during my upcoming period. I feel very disappointed as I think of this as a very big missed opportunity and not deserving of forgiveness of my previous year’s sins. What should I do?
