Abortion in the Second Month of Ramadan

Question
My daughter had an abortion yesterday and was in the second month, should she fast and pray?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: If the bleeding lasts for three days, it is considered menstruation, and if it is less than three days, it is considered irregular bleeding. The woman experiencing irregular bleeding is treated like a pure woman; she fasts and prays, but she must perform ablution for each prayer time. And God knows best.
