Ruling on the occurrence of blood after taking menstrual regulation medication
I got my menstrual period on the second day of Eid, corresponding to the 2nd of Shawwal, and I took menstrual regulation medication on the fourth day of my period. After taking it, my period stopped, and I began fasting on the 9th and 10th of Shawwal. However, after that, I experienced some spotting. Is my fasting and prayer valid?
Answer
I say, and with Allah's guidance: This is considered menstrual blood, so prayer and fasting are not valid because of it, unless you ask a doctor and she informs you that it is due to a medical condition. And Allah knows best.
