She entered Makkah but did not enter the state of ihram for 'Umrah because she was menstruating; is it permissible for her to perform tawaf as a voluntary act once she becomes pure?

The questioner:
In her third question, a woman says: I entered Makkah but did not enter the state of ihram for 'Umrah due to a valid legal excuse. After I became pure, I wanted to perform tawaf around the House as a voluntary act. Is that permissible for me?

The Shaykh:
It is permissible for her to do so. However, if she had entered the state of ihram from the miqat while menstruating, there would be no harm in that, for menstruation does not prevent entering the state of ihram. If she had entered the state of ihram for 'Umrah and stayed in her residence until she became pure and performed the full ritual bath, and then performed the rites of 'Umrah, that would have been better for her. But since she did not enter the state of ihram and abandoned the intention of 'Umrah, it is permissible for her to perform tawaf around the House as an absolute voluntary act. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you,

The questioner:
It is what the common people call al-Mahsibiyyah.

The Shaykh:
Sabil means seven circuits; they call it al-Sab' (the seven), meaning seven circuits. Yes.

The presenter:
It is an independent act of worship for the one who is in the House; he may perform tawaf around it seven times whenever he wishes.

The Shaykh:
Or raising the House is an act of worship.

The presenter:
If Allah wills.

The Shaykh:
In the House, it is an act of worship, whether it is in the first half or it is a voluntary act outside the first half. Yes.
