AL KAFI #1842: HUKUM MENQADAKAN SOLAT SEKIRANYA SUCI DARIPADA HAID SEBELUM SUBUH
Must a woman make up the Maghrib and Isha prayers if she finds her menstruation has ended at dawn and is unsure when she actually became pure?
Short answer
If a woman is certain she became pure from menstruation before the Fajr time began, she must perform the Maghrib and Isha prayers, since these two prayer times are treated as one time when there is an excuse.

Summary
If a woman is certain she became pure from menstruation before the Fajr time began, she must perform the Maghrib and Isha prayers, since these two prayer times are treated as one time when there is an excuse. If she is not certain or does not know when her purity began, it is deemed to begin at the nearest possible time, which is when she checked at dawn. In that case she does not need to make up Maghrib and Isha.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Sekiranya saudari menyakini telah suci daripada haid sebelum waktu subuh, maka wajib ke atas saudari menunaikan solat Fardu Maghrib dan Isyak
