Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: We heard from some scholars that the position of the People of the Zahir is that it is permissible for a menstruating woman to remain in the mosque, and that their evidence is that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered a tent to be built in the mosque for a woman who was in need. What is the answer to that? May Allah grant you success.
Answer:
This is a woman with irregular bleeding, she is not menstruating. The one who was in i'tikaf (spiritual retreat) placed a basin underneath her; she is a woman with irregular bleeding, not a menstruating woman. Yes.
