Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. It is reported in an athar (report) from Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that she said to the woman who asked her, “Why is it that when one of us menstruates, she makes up the fast but does not make up the prayer?” So Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said to her, “Are you a Khariji?” What is the reason Aisha described this woman as a Khariji, even though she did not exhibit any of the characteristics of the Khawarij?

Answer:
Except for this; this is a characteristic of the Khawarij. The Khawarij are strict in their questioning, which is one aspect. The other aspect is that they command a menstruating woman to make up the prayer. The position of the Khawarij is that they command a menstruating woman to make up the prayer. This is part of their strictness, may Allah protect us from it.
