As this is not the  monthly bleeding, a couple of people said that if you bleed for any  other reason, in Islam, it is then considered an illness. You can start  to pray and recire Qur&#8217;an. Is this view in line with the Qur&#8217;an and the  Prophetic teachings?<\/p>\n<h3>Answer<\/h3>\n<p>We  believe what you have been told is correct. It is only the menstrual  and puerperal bleeding that requires the women to stop praying. Your  issue is clearly different. You should therefore make wudu and start  praying. Even the bleeding continues during the prayer that is  acceptable for it is not in your control. Similarly you are not required  to take a bath after every instance of bleeding. Simple wudu is  sufficient.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Answered by:<\/strong> Tariq Mahmood Hashmi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Date:<\/strong> 2015-02-12<\/p>\n<button class=\"simplefavorite-button\" data-postid=\"6494\" data-siteid=\"1\" data-groupid=\"1\" data-favoritecount=\"0\" style=\"\">Favorite <i class=\"sf-icon-star-empty\"><\/i><\/button>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I  have got IUD (intra-uterine device) which causes intermittent bleeding  for anywhere between 3- 6 months to settle in.
