Duration of postpartum bleeding

Q: My wife gave birth almost seven days before Ramadan. She became Tahir (ritually pure) before the beginning of the month. Is her Sawm (fast) valid or should she make up for it? She said that she fasted once she was Tahir. Please answer me, may Allah reward you with the best!

A: If the case is as you have mentioned, and your wife fasted Ramadan (Part No. 10; Page No. 156) while she is Tahir, her Sawm is valid. There is no need to make up for it.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
