A menstruating woman entering the mosque to attend lessons

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A woman is asking and says: Is it permissible for her to come to the mosque and enter it while she is menstruating in order to attend the scholarly lessons?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible for her to sit in the mosque while she is menstruating. It is permissible for her to pass through to pick up something, but she must not sit. Neither the one in a state of major ritual impurity nor the menstruating woman may sit in the mosque until he or she performs the full ritual bath. The menstruating woman performs the full ritual bath when her period ends, or the one in a state of major ritual impurity performs the full ritual bath for that state, and then he or she may sit in the mosque. Yes.
