The Ruling on a Menstruating Woman Reading the Qur'an
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The sister Huda says: Shaykh Salih, regarding a menstruating woman, is it permissible for her to read the Qur'an without touching it?
Answer:
There is scholarly disagreement on this. If she needs to read it for an exam or fears forgetting it, there is nothing wrong with her reading it from memory. If she needs the mushaf, she should do so from behind a barrier, and not touch the mushaf directly with her hand. Rather, she should place a barrier over her hand, or hold a pen or ruler in her hand and use it to point to the verses. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you and bless you.
