The ruling on a menstruating woman entering the passageways of the mosque

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. He asks: Is it permissible for a menstruating woman to remain in the passageways of the mosque where prayer is not usually performed?

Answer:
It is not permissible for her to enter the mosque, neither its passageways nor any place within its gates and enclosure; rather, she should be outside the mosque. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said
I do not make the mosque lawful for a menstruating woman and for a person who is sexually defiled.لا أحل المسجد لحائض ولا جنب
Sunan Abi Dawud 232Da'if (Al-Albani)
. And he (peace and blessings be upon him) said regarding the Eid prayer that the young girls and menstruating women were to be brought out, and that menstruating women should stay away from the place of prayer. A menstruating woman does not enter the mosque; rather, she remains outside the mosque, either at the door or in a car. Yes.
