The ruling on staying in the mosque for a menstruating woman and one in a state of major ritual impurity, and the funeral prayer without ablution

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : And a shaykh from the foundations of the Shaykh: if a verse has two meanings, and there is no consensus between them, what is it applied to? What is it applied to?

The Shaykh : No, it is not applied to them, because they are like the judges. If we say that "the purified ones" means those who have purified themselves from ritual impurity, do you understand? Do we hold to that opinion? And do we obligate him to perform wudu'? If we say that "the purified ones" are the angels, we do not hold to that opinion and we do not obligate him. Whatever is suitable is suitable. The disagreement cannot be reconciled, because these are two contradictory opinions. No, she may not stay, because she is menstruating; even if she performed wudu', nothing of her ritual impurity would be removed; the impurity remains. Yes. Do you have a paper? How?

The questioner : She said, and you say that if a menstruating woman does not perform wudu', it is not permissible for her to stay, poor thing? The implication of the phrase means I understood.

The Shaykh : No, no, if she performs wudu', it is not permissible for her to stay in the mosque, unlike the one in a state of major ritual impurity.

The questioner : Which opinion is it, looking at the people? If the lowliness that comes out is that there is no respect for these people

The Shaykh : Yes. It means it is permissible. It is permissible to pray while not in a state of ablution, yes, they say that, this is their opinion, this is their opinion, but the correct view is that it is a prayer, because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) called it a prayer, and he said, "Pray for your companion," and he went out to the prayer area and led the people in prayer for al-Najashi. It is forbidden to pray over a funeral while not in a state of ablution.
