A Little Blood During Menstruation

Question
A woman saw a very small amount of blood, equivalent to a hair, just once for one day, and then no more blood came. What is the ruling?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: What she saw of the blood is not menstrual blood, unless it returns to her within three days; because the minimum period of menstruation is three days, and anything less than that is considered blood of irregular bleeding, which does not prevent prayer because of it. And God knows best.
