20 - Ghusl for Menstruation and Postpartum

۞
If a woman gives birth, She should refrain from prayer for ten days, unless She becomes pure (stops bleeding) before that. If the bleeding continues, She should refrain from prayer for up to eighteen days, because Asma bint Umays experienced postnatal bleeding (nifas) with Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr during the Farewell Pilgrimage, and the Messenger of Allah (sw) instructed her to refrain for eighteen days.
وإذا ولدت المرأة قعدت عن الصلاة عشرة أيام إلا أن تطهر قبل ذلك فان استمر بها الدم تركت الصلاة ما بينها وبين ثمانية عشر يوما، لان أسماء بنت عميس نفست بمحمد بن أبي بكر في حجة الوداع فأمرها رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله أن تقعد ثمانية عشر يوما.
