Questions often arise regarding the rulings of istihaadah, particularly in relation to purification and prayer, due to differing scholarly opinions on the matter.

Istihaadah refers to non-menstrual bleeding that occurs outside the regular menstrual cycle. Islamic jurists clarify that it does not carry the same rulings as menstruation and is treated as a minor state of impurity.

Ruling on Wudu for Each Prayer
Dar Al-Ifta stated that one ablution is sufficient for a woman experiencing istihaadah, allowing her to perform multiple obligatory and voluntary prayers unless her wudu is broken by another cause.

Recommended Practice
Although a single wudu is valid, it is recommended for her to renew ablution for each prayer after its time begins, as a precaution and to avoid scholarly disagreement.

Recitation of the Quran
It is permissible for a woman in this condition to recite the Quran and touch the mushaf after performing wudu, as she is considered ritually pure in Islamic law.

Conclusion
A woman experiencing istihaadah remains in a state of legal purity, making it easier for her to perform acts of worship while observing recommended precautions.
