Abstract

This paper is a jurisprudent study of women intake of some medications in an attempt to delay or postpone menstruation dropping beyond its natural term as predestined by Almighty God so that the woman can get longer time to practice a worship of shorter duration such that the woman cannot complete it before the due term of menstruation. It is a kind of worship which requires that the woman is not in her menstruation such as fasting, pilgrimage and in some cases prayers that are linked with a special occasion.
The paper is based on results of medical reports concerning the mechanism of menstruation dropping delay medications to arrive at the most plausible viewpoints in the judgment against taking these medications to show the judgment concerning women purity during the time of postponement and the judgment concerning the worship practiced during this period of time.
