  • Haidh (Menstruation Or Period)
    Women's Issues Made Simple Batul S. Arastu - XKP Published: 2013 Categorie(s): Non-Fiction, Religion, Islam Tag(s): "women issues" "muslim women" "ghusl in islam" "ayatullah sist- ani" "islamic hijab" menses paak istehaza istadha xkp Menstruation qaleelah mutawasit kaseera haidh haiz Menopause ruling for menstrual 1 Chapter 1 Author’s Preface Before I came to Qum I had many questions regarding specific issues related to women, the Islamic rules women must follow. One of the main issues all women face is that of different blood cycles. There are a lot of Fiqh (Jurisprudence) books that cover these sensitive topics for women, but I often found them very confusing for myself. Alhamdulillah, join- ing the Houza (Seminary) in Qum helped me in understanding these confusing issues. Apart from wanting to share what I learnt, I wanted to make my life easy so I decided to write a very simple book that talks mainly about different issues women face. In this book we will be mainly discussing different blood cycles and the different women who are special in their own way. When you read this book you will be able to figure out what kind of a blood cycle you have and InshaAllah you will be able to perform your duties as per the laws of Islam, which is obligatory on all of us. This book is written according to the rulings of Ayatullah Khomeini and Ayatullah Seestani. Although most of the Maraaji’ have similar views on these issues, it is important that sisters who follow other Maraaji’ should check with their own Marja`, because there may be minor differences in the rulings.
