Question:
May Allah reward you. Muhammad Abu Bakr sent a message containing two questions. In the first, he says: If a woman menstruates or has post-natal bleeding after entering the state of ihram, is her tawaf of the House valid, or what should she do? And is the farewell tawaf obligatory upon her?
Answer:
If a woman has post-natal bleeding or menstruates after entering the state of ihram, or if that happens to her before entering the state of ihram, she enters the state of ihram while menstruating or with post-natal bleeding, but she does not perform tawaf of the House until she becomes pure. This is because Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) menstruated after she had entered the state of ihram, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her: Do what the pilgrim does, except that you do not perform tawaf of the House until you become pure. And when Safiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her) menstruated and informed the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) of that, he said: Has she held us up? They said: She has already left, O Messenger of Allah, meaning she performed the tawaf of leaving, the farewell tawaf; she performed the tawaf of ifadah. He said: Then depart, and the farewell tawaf was dropped from her. The conclusion is that a menstruating woman and a woman with post-natal bleeding, whether before or after entering the state of ihram, waits; she remains in her state of ihram and waits until the menstruation or post-natal bleeding ceases, then she performs the rites. Yes. May Allah reward you. With the tawaf, she performs the tawaf and the sa'y, because the sa'y is linked to the tawaf. Yes.
