The menstruating woman in 'Umrah if her family wants to travel before her purification

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: What should a menstruating woman do during 'Umrah if her family is going to travel from Makkah before she is purified from menstruation, and she has not yet performed the tawaf?

Answer:
Either her guardian is patient with her and stays with her in Makkah until she is purified, takes a bath, and performs the tawaf; or she goes with him, and when she is purified, he brings her back. When she is purified, he brings her back and she performs the tawaf of completion. If he says, "By Allah, I am not going to wait for you," we say: Do not contradict the dispensation, but commit to the fact that when she is purified, you will bring her back to perform the tawaf of completion. Yes. And today, praise be to Allah, fast means of transportation are available. Yes.
