What is the ruling on a menstruating woman who made a condition during her ihram, and will be forced to travel before performing the 'Umrah, for fear of missing the group?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a menstruating woman entered ihram and made a condition, then traveled before performing the 'Umrah because the group did not wait for her to become pure, is her action valid?

Answer:
She does not leave until she performs the 'Umrah. Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) says:
And complete the Hajj and 'umrah for Allahوَأَتِمُّوا الْحَجَّ وَالْعُمْرَةَ لِلَّهِ
[Al-Baqarah 2:196]
. As long as she has entered ihram for the 'Umrah, it is obligatory for her to complete it. Her guardian waits with her. Her mahram who is with her waits with her. There is no hardship in this. Praise be to Allah, today a person is not in need of a group. Airplanes and cars are available. Transportation is easy, just like before.
