The ruling on performing the tawaf of 'Umrah during menstruation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Umm Ahmad, says: I performed 'Umrah last week, but my period started, so I performed the tawaf and sa'y while in a state of ritual impurity. She says: We are now in Jeddah. What is required of me?

Answer:
You are required to maintain your state of ihram because you are still in ihram. When the bleeding stops and you perform the full ritual bath, you will go down to Makkah and perform the 'Umrah for which you entered ihram, because your tawaf is invalid, and consequently your sa'y is invalid, as it must follow a valid tawaf. So you must hasten to maintain your ihram, avoid the prohibitions of ihram, and go to Makkah to perform the 'Umrah for which you entered ihram and for which menstruation overtook you. Yes.
