Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a woman to touch the study book, the book of tafsir, while she is experiencing her monthly excuse? There is nothing wrong with that.

Answer:
It is permissible for a menstruating woman to touch a book of tafsir, a book of hadith, or a book of fiqh; there is nothing wrong with that. What is forbidden is for her to touch the Noble Mushaf directly. She may not touch the Noble Mushaf directly except through a barrier, based on the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him):
No one may touch the Mushaf except one who is in a state of purity. Yes. May Allah reward you with good.لا يمس المصحف إلا طاهر. نعم. جزاكم الله خيرا.
