Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
A woman performed the Tawaf al-Ifadah of her obligatory Hajj while she was menstruating. She was ignorant that ritual purity is a condition for Tawaf, and modesty prevented her from informing her family. What is required of her?
Answer:
She must perform the Tawaf again, even if a month has passed. She performs it with the intention of the previous Hajj, seven circuits around the House. Her mahram slaughters a sacrificial animal. She performs it with the intention of the previous Hajj, and her Hajj is valid. If her husband had intercourse with her after the Hajj, she must slaughter one animal, which is slaughtered in Makkah for the poor, to be for her intercourse before she performed the Tawaf. Yes.
