Question:
He says: I am performing 'Umrah, and my wife is with me, so her menstrual blood came before its time. Should I perform tawaf on her behalf?
Answer:
Tawaf does not allow for representation. However, she should wait until she becomes pure, takes a bath, and performs tawaf, as the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:Sahih al-Bukhari 1650 She should wait, and when the blood stops, she should take a bath and perform tawaf around the House. As for you performing tawaf on her behalf, that is not sufficient. Yes.

but do not perform Tawaf of the Ka`ba till you get clean (from your menses).
