Tawaf for a menstruating woman out of dire necessity if her home is far away

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: Is it possible to say that if there is a dire necessity, such as the woman’s home being far away, that it is permissible for her to perform tawaf while she is menstruating?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible for her to perform tawaf while she is menstruating, and the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Do not perform tawaf around the House until you become pure.
