AL-KAFI #1501 : TIDAK PERASAN ADA TOMPOKAN DARAH SEMASA MENUNAIKAN SOLAT
Is a prayer valid if one only notices a bloodstain on one's clothes after finishing it?
Short answer
If an unexcused bloodstain is noticed right after the prayer, the prayer is invalid and must be repeated, because freedom from impurity is a condition of validity and clothing must be checked beforehand.

Summary
If an unexcused bloodstain is noticed right after the prayer, the prayer is invalid and must be repeated, because freedom from impurity is a condition of validity and clothing must be checked beforehand. If the stain is noticed only after a long time, the prayer need not be repeated since the stain may have appeared afterwards, though repeating it is recommended. If one is certain the impurity was already there before praying, the prayer must be repeated. A small amount of blood is excused, but a large amount is not.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Kesimpulannya, jika saudara perasan ada darah sejurus selepas menunaikan solat, maka solat yang dilakukan adalah tidak sah dan perlu diulangi semula.
