Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And we benefit from what you have said. Honorable Shaykh, returning to what we began our discussion with regarding menstruation, when does it become obligatory for a menstruating woman to perform ghusl?
Answer:
The woman who is menstruating takes a ritual bath when the blood has completely stopped, meaning when she sees complete cleanliness at the end of her menstruation. If she sees complete cleanliness, she takes a ritual bath, prays, and becomes permissible to her husband, as the Mighty and Majestic said:[Al-Baqarah 2:222] meaning that menstruation stops, and when we purify ourselves, meaning when we take a ritual bath, [Al-Baqarah 2:222] The women used to send a piece of cotton to the Mother of the Believers, Aisha, with dark or yellowish discharge on it, and she would say to them: Do not hasten, meaning in taking the ritual bath, until you see the white flag, meaning the end and completion of purity. Yes.

so keep away from wives during menstruation. And do not approach them until they are pure.
فَاعْتَزِلُوا النِّسَاءَ فِي الْمَحِيضِ وَلَا تَقْرَبُوهُنَّ حَتَّىٰ يَطْهُرْنَthen come to them from where Allah has ordained for you. Indeed, Allah loves those who are constantly repentant and loves those who purify themselves."
فَأْتُوهُنَّ مِنْ حَيْثُ أَمَرَكُمُ اللَّهُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ التَّوَّابِينَ وَيُحِبُّ الْمُتَطَهِّرِينَ
