Is the place of sa'y considered part of al-Masjid al-Haram?

The questioner:
Yes. He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is the place of sa'y considered part of al-Masjid al-Haram?
The Shaykh:
No, the place of sa'y is an independent site, and therefore a menstruating woman enters it and performs sa'y while menstruating. If it were part of al-Masjid al-Haram, a woman would not enter it. [Aisha] was told when she menstruated, "Do what the pilgrim does, except do not perform tawaf around the House until you are purified." So a menstruating woman does not enter al-Masjid al-Haram, whereas she enters the place of sa'y, performs sa'y in it while menstruating, and sits in it. Thus, the rulings for the place of sa'y are different from the rulings for the mosque. Yes.
