Bearing witness

As-Salaamu Alaikum,

In the Quran it states that it takes 2 women to bear witness about an issue or occurance (crime)where it only takes one man. Could you please give me clarification about this.

End of Haidh

AssalamuAlaikum,

I was wondering, when does one know when Haidh has ended and when to check.

My normal period of time is about 9/10 days or so or sometimes more, but after about day 8 Imostly only experience discharge being yellow or white but not always red, and I know that this is still regarged as Haidh if within 10 days and it is not clear, but when does one know when to check? Do I check an hour before every Salaah or whenevr I have the need to go to the toilet etc? Because say if one goes to the toilet at Asr and sees there is some discharge and thus Haidh still continues, Maghrib at times is very near to Asr, thus do they check before maghrib as well, and if one does and sees no Haidh how does one know that this is because it has stopped or because it is due to the short period of time after you did istinjiaa and thus it has been washed away but may appear after some hours?

Jazkallah Khair!

Purdah

i am 17yrs of age, i wear the full hijab, jilbab n niqaab, i have been doin so for the past yr or so, my family is not very practisin-i have 3 brother in laws, they are married to my elder sisters and have been a part of the family for more than 10yrs, meaning they've been there in my days of jahil, i find it hard to observe hijaab in front of them as my family think it isn't necessary to do so in front of them, so whats the minimum i should do, should i just wear the scarf and not the niqaab-i wear salwar kameez at home, do i have to wear the jilbab also?, theyv seen me from the age of 3yrs, does that make any differnce? i have no doubts of fitnah,however i would like islamic viewpoints inshallah, may Allah be pleased with you

26 days bleeding

I have very iregular periods sometimes they will last for a whole month and then i wont have any bleeding for two months. Recently i started bleeding on the 14th of September and this finished on 9th October, a total of 26 days. The bleeding was light for a few days and then very heavy for the rest of the days. Would this all count as being on my period? and when would it be sufficient for me to start praying my salat because i heard that your period only lasts maximum 10 days and after this is it a bleeding vein..please help ..thankyou

Haiz

my haiz goes over 10 days therefore it lasts 15days. Do I count my clean days from the 11th day when I still see blood or do I count my clean days from the day I see no blood which would be the 15th day.

Haiz?

Asslamu alaykum.

If bleeding stops within 10 days and 10 nights but yellowish discharge continues beyond 10 nights, when would i assume the end of my period? This question has been answered before but for a sister following the shaafee school of thought. Is the ruling the same from a Hanafi point of veiw?
