Makhul said: A woman in postpartum bleeding will wait thirty days for the birth of a boy and forty days for a girl. Marwan said: This is also the statement of Sa'id bin Abdul Aziz. Imam Awza'i, may Allah have mercy on him, said: Both boy and girl are the same (i.e., the period of postpartum bleeding is forty days, during which she will be considered like a menstruating woman).
