Question:

Asalamualaikum,

Is it permissible to pray if you have brown discharge after your periods?

بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمنِ الرَّحِيْم

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Answer:

No. Brown discharge is also counted as haidh.[1]

You should wait until you see clear white discharge or when the brown discharge stops completely, then you can start praying.[2]

It is not permissible to pray before that.

Only Allah knows best
