The Ruling on a Menstruating Woman Reading the Qur'an

Question:
Umm 'Abdullah asks: Is it permissible for a menstruating woman to read some of the religious books and booklets that contain some verses of the Qur'an? What is the ruling if she reads from the mushaf while menstruating without touching it? And does she read by looking at it?

Answer:
A menstruating woman does not read the Qur'an until she becomes pure and performs ghusl, but reading is permissible for her in cases of dire necessity. For example, if she fears forgetting something of the Qur'an she has memorized and is afraid she will forget it, there is no harm in her reading it in order to remember it. Or if the time for an exam has arrived and she is a student, and the exam is on reading the Qur'an, she reads the Qur'an to the extent of the need so that she is not counted as having failed in that subject. However, without need or dire necessity, she does not read the Qur'an until she becomes pure and performs ghusl, until she becomes pure from menstruation and performs ghusl from it. Yes.
