The Menstruating Woman Reading a Translation of the Meanings of the Qur'an
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it permissible for a menstruating woman to read a translation of the meanings of the Qur'an in Russian, for example, or in another language?
The Shaykh:
There is nothing wrong with that. Tafsir is read in the language of the person being addressed. There is no harm in it. If one does not understand Arabic, he reads the tafsir in his own language. Yes.
The questioner:
And is it permissible for a menstruating woman to read that?
The Shaykh:
She reads it.
The questioner:
He says: A translation of the meanings of the Qur'an.
The Shaykh:
Tafsir is permissible. You may read tafsir; there is nothing wrong with it. Even if you read all of Ibn Kathir, there is nothing wrong with it. It has no meaning [of being the Word of Allah]. Tafsir is fine; it is not the Word of Allah.
