The ruling on the ihram of the one performing tamattu' if menstruation begins

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
If a woman performing tamattu' enters the state of ihram, and then menstruation begins before she reaches the Sacred House, what should she do?

Answer:
She remains in her state of ihram, but she does not sit in the Sacred Mosque until she becomes pure, and she does not perform tawaf around the House until she becomes pure. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to A'ishah:
Do what the people doing hajj do except do not doافعلي ما يفعل الحاج غير أن لا تطوفي
Muwatta Malik 20:236
in the House until you become pure. So she stands at 'Arafah and spends the night at Muzdalifah, she spends the night at Mina and stons the pillars while menstruating, but she postpones the tawaf until she becomes pure. And if the time for departure arrives while she is menstruating and she has already performed the tawaf of ifadah, then she departs and she owes no farewell tawaf, because the ruling was relaxed for the menstruating woman. Yes.
