What is the ruling if a woman, while observing her waiting period, is discovered to be pregnant by her husband?
General Chapter
Al-Mughni
Book of Waiting Periods ('Iddah)
Primary text
If pregnancy by the husband becomes apparent during the waiting period, the previous count is nullified. It is established that the blood she previously observed was not menstruation because a pregnant woman does not menstruate. This supersedes any prior calculation based on observed bleeding.
