Salaah after a woman's water breaks
Question
I would like to know if a lady is expecting and her waters break but it takes a few salaah times before she actually gives birth, is salaah fardh on her during this time? Will she be regarded as a ma'zoor and have to make wudhu and read salaah during the labour process untill the baby is born?
Answer
Yes.
If there is a continuous discharge she will be mazoor.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
