Ruling on the Blood That Comes After Abortion for Less Than Four Months

Question
What is the ruling on the blood after an abortion in the third month, is it postpartum bleeding or irregular bleeding?
Answer

I say, and with God's success: If the fetus is clearly formed with its organs appearing, the blood after it is irregular bleeding, not postpartum bleeding. If it has taken shape, then it is postpartum bleeding, and taking shape occurs at four months. And God knows best.
