Menstruation of the woman performing 'Umrah after making a condition at the time of entering ihram

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, this questioner says that his daughters were afraid of menstruation during 'Umrah,

The Shaykh:
that his daughters.

The questioner:
Their daughters were afraid of menstruation during the 'Umrah, so they made a condition when entering ihram. When they arrived at the Haram, they started menstruating, so they exited their ihram and did not perform the rites. What is obligatory for them?

The Shaykh:
Menstruation is not one of the things that prevents completion; menstruation is not a barrier because its time is limited. She waits until she performs what the pilgrim does. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
but do not perform Tawaf of the Ka`ba till you get clean (from your menses).غير أن لا تطوفي بالبيت حتى تطهري
Sahih al-Bukhari 1650
So it is not a barrier. Menstruation is a known thing, so she waits until she becomes pure, then she performs the 'Umrah for which she entered ihram. If she goes to her hometown because the time is tight or she cannot stay in Makkah, then when she becomes pure, she comes back and remains in her ihram. When she becomes pure, her guardian must have her perform the 'Umrah.
