Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: Shaykh, she performed 'Umrah in a past year. She performed it once while menstruating, and she performed tawaf and sa'y while in a state of ritual impurity. What is required of her?
Answer:
Tawaf requires ritual purity. When 'Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) menstruated, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said to her:Sahih al-Bukhari 305, so a menstruating woman does not perform tawaf until she becomes pure. This is based on the explicit text of the hadith of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). When Safiyyah menstruated at the end of Hajj, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: , meaning, is it for the sake of the tawaf of ifadhah? They said: Sunan Abi Dawud 2003Sahih (Al-Albani) that the farewell tawaf is waived for her. As for the tawaf of ifadhah, she does not depart but remains until she becomes pure and performs it.
This woman who performed 'Umrah while menstruating, performed tawaf and sa'y, and shortened her hair, has not completed her 'Umrah to this day. Because her tawaf is invalid. So she must return. She must avoid the prohibitions of ihram. She considers herself in a state of ihram from that time, and she must return and perform the 'Umrah for which she entered ihram. If intercourse occurred during this period, she slaughters a sheep in Makkah and distributes it to the poor as an expiation for whoever did so. And if she performed 'Umrah after this 'Umrah that she performed while menstruating, performing a valid 'Umrah afterwards, then it takes the place of the first 'Umrah. Yes.

So do what all the pilgrims do except that you do not perform the Tawaf round the Ka`ba till you are clean.

حابستنا هيThey (the people) said: She has performed the obligatory circumambulation (Tawaf al-Ziyarah). He said: If so, there is no need (of staying any longer).
