The Ruling on a Menstruating Woman Reading from the Mushaf
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
May Allah greet you and bless you.
The questioner:
Your Eminence, Shaykh Salih (may Allah preserve you), may Allah bless you. I begin this episode with a question from a questioner who sent a message saying: I am a questioner from Yemen, my name is Ayub 'Umar. Is it permissible for a woman to read from the mushaf while she is menstruating if she wears gloves or socks on her hands? Please give us a ruling, and may Allah reward you.
The Shaykh:
A menstruating woman does not read the Qur'an, nor a single verse, except if she has memorized the Qur'an and fears forgetting it; in that case, she reads it to preserve it from being forgotten. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
