A woman who becomes pure from menstruation when only a few minutes of the Asr time remain must pray Asr immediately, and it counts as performed on time if she catches one rak'ah within its time, based on the hadith on obtaining one rak'ah.

Summary
A woman who becomes pure from menstruation when only a few minutes of the Asr time remain must pray Asr immediately, and it counts as performed on time if she catches one rak'ah within its time, based on the hadith on obtaining one rak'ah. On making up Zuhr or Maghrib when purity occurs in the second prayer's time, the schools differ: the Hanafi school does not require making up prayers missed during menstruation, the Maliki school sets a time threshold, and the Shafi'i school in its new position requires making up the first prayer together with the second.
