Fatwa #54227 August 2000Pakistan

Is a pregnant woman or one who has just delivered, permitted to fast in the month of Ramadhaan?

Answer

The fast of a pregnant woman is valid. However, due to weakness during pregnancy, she is exempt from fasting. After delivery of the baby, during Nifaas (bleeding after birth), she cannot fast.

And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best.
