A woman's menstruation before the Tawaf of Ifadah and travel
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: My wife performed all the rituals of Hajj as a mutamatti'ah, having completed her 'Umrah, until we reached standing at 'Arafah, staying overnight in Mina, and stoning the pillars. When it came time for the Tawaf of Ifadah, her menstrual bleeding started. What is your Eminence's opinion on this? Please note that I am committed to my job, and the travel is on the fourteenth and twelfth. May Allah guide you to what is best?
Answer:
We have given the answer to this before: she must stay. You and she, then you returned. If she becomes pure, there is no harm in the case of dire necessity, but do not have intercourse with her until she returns and performs the Tawaf. The point is that you should stay as long as possible until she becomes pure and performs the Tawaf; this is what is obligatory for you. If the country is far away, do not rush, because returning is difficult, so be patient until she becomes pure and then perform the Tawaf with her. As for nearby places like Jeddah, Ta'if, and the like, it is possible to go with her and return, but do not have intercourse with her until she returns. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
