Abstract :
The question of the Islamic laws pertaining to women who experience lochia has been largely overlooked in the research literature. Even scholars who treat the issue do so in a very general way and thus overlook nuances in the Islamic juridical discussion of the topic and the insights that one may derive from it. This article aims to fill the lacuna that beset this subject by presenting the three main juridical discussions that concern the topic and offering an insight adduced from this presentation and its analysis.
