The ruling on a menstruating woman sitting on the internal stairs of the mosque

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: Is it permissible for a menstruating woman to sit on the internal stairs of the mosque to witness good and learn knowledge? We hope you will clarify this, Shaykh.

Answer:
Yes, it is part of the mosque. Everything inside the mosque’s enclosure is part of the mosque, and what is outside the enclosure is outside the mosque. It is not permissible for a menstruating woman to sit on the internal stairs of the mosque, because they are part of the mosque. Yes.
