When a woman forgets her dates and duration, she is known as ‘nasiyah’. If she sees blood for more than 10 days then she should follow these guidelines:
- If the blood has signs of ‘haidh’ and it lasts no more than 10 days then it is all considered ‘haidh’.
- If blood has signs of ‘haidh’ for 8 days, no signs for 5 days, and the blood flow lasts 13 days, then 8 days is haidh and 5 days is istihadha.
- If blood has no signs at all and the flow lasts 13 days, then she should consider 7 days as ‘haidh’ and the remaining days as ‘istihadha’.
