Is it permissible for a menstruating woman to recite the Qur'an?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is it permissible for a menstruating woman to recite the Qur'an?

Answer:
It is not permissible for a menstruating woman to recite the Qur'an except out of necessity. If she has an exam and fears she will fail, or if she is memorizing something from the Qur'an and fears she will forget it, there is no harm in her reading it. Yes.
