IRSYAD HUKUM SIRI KE-718: HUKUM PEREMPUAN MELEWATKAN SOLAT SEHINGGA DATANG HAID

Is a woman sinful if she delays a prayer until her period begins, and must she make up that prayer?

Short answer

A woman who had enough time within the prayer window to perform the prayer, but then her period began, must make up that prayer once she is pure.

Summary

A woman who had enough time within the prayer window to perform the prayer, but then her period began, must make up that prayer once she is pure. If the time was not enough to perform the prayer, she is not obliged to make it up. Delaying the prayer until the period starts is not sinful as long as she resolved, when the time began, to pray before the time ended.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.

Melewatkan solat sehingga kedatangan haid tidaklah berdosa selagi mana dia berazam ketika masuknya waktu untuk menunaikan solat sebelum habisnya waktu solat.
