The ruling on a menstruating woman or a woman with post-natal bleeding reciting the Noble Qur'an when there is a need, especially for those who have memorized it

Question:
May Allah reward you. The sender is Munira 'Abd Allah from Dammam. She says: During childbirth, I recited the Verse of the Throne and the two chapters of seeking refuge (al-Mu'awwidhat), and I was in a state of ritual impurity with the intention of seeking relief from Allah the Exalted and gaining reward. What is the ruling on my action? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
This is a matter of scholarly disagreement, because the scholars differed on whether a menstruating woman or a woman with post-natal bleeding is permitted to recite the Qur'an. This is because the duration of menstruation and post-natal bleeding is long for them, and if they were prevented from the Qur'an, they would be harmed. Also, there is no authentic evidence prohibiting a menstruating woman or a woman with post-natal bleeding from reciting the Qur'an. The prohibition is specific to the state of major ritual impurity (janabah); it is specific to the state of major ritual impurity. It is the one for which there is a prohibition for the person in a state of major ritual impurity to recite anything from the Qur'an. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not prevent anyone from the Qur'an except in the state of major ritual impurity. So if a woman needs to recite something from the Qur'an for her daily recitation or to repeat what she has memorized so that she does not forget it, there is no harm in that, if Allah wills. Yes.
