When a woman experiences menopause at the age of fifty, the bleeding or yellowish discharge she has is not menstrual blood which requires a woman to stop Salah and Sawm (Fast). In fact, it is an abnormal bleeding that only invalidates Wudu' (ablution) and necessitates performing Istinja' (washing the private parts with water after urination or defecation) and purifying the vagina blood performing Wudu'.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
