Period of forty days after giving birth.
At the end of this time a special bath is given to the woman. Formerly it was done by the midwife, now she does it sometimes herself or an imam may perform it. 40 coconut shells of water are poured on her. If it is more than 40 days the exceeding number of days is added to the amount of water poured. For the forty days the woman is not allowed to worship or prepare food for a communal feast.
