How long is nifaas (post-natal bleeding)?

“There is no restriction where a female in Nifaas should not emerge from the room as she is Napaak. She is permitted to carry out all her household chores as per norma,l as long as it is with the limits of Shariah.”

“If it was the first birth then the maximum period of postnatal bleeding is 40 days. You were supposed to take the ghusl after the 40th day. If you have not done so then do qadha of all the namaaz after the 40th day. After this you may follow your original routine of haidh and tuhr.”

“The scholars make a difference between clipping nails during Janaabat as opposed to Haidh/Nifaas. Janaabat can be removed quickly through Ghusl; thus it will be forbidden to clip one’s nails whilst in Janaabat.”

“Your question is unclear. Was there still Nifaas (post natal bleeding)? If you were still in Nifaas, having intercourse would be Haram and you and your husband would have to make sincere Tawbah and beg Allah Ta’ala for forgiveness and never repeat such.”
