Counting Five Days - Purity
Question
If my wife saw bleeding on Thursday, and then there was almost no discharge until Motzaei Shabbos—when it became more significant—when can we start counting the 'five days'?
Answer
Shalom,
From Thursday.
Since the five days are counted from the time of the bleeding that caused the prohibition, even if it wasn’t the main bleeding.
