Machine translationRead the Arabic original

The fourth question of the fatwa number ( 6948 ) Q4: Is it permissible for a menstruating woman to enter the mosque, and what is the evidence?


A4: Praise be to Allah alone, and peace and blessings be upon His Messenger, his family, and his Companions.. And after: It is not permissible for a menstruating woman to enter the mosque except to pass through if she needs to do so, just as with a person in a state of major ritual impurity; for Allah the Exalted said:
O you who have believed, do not approach prayer while you are intoxicated until you know what you are saying or in a state of janabah, except those passing through [a place of prayer], until you have washed [your whole body]يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لاَ تَقْرَبُوا الصَّلاَةَ وَأَنْتُمْ سُكَارَى حَتَّى تَعْلَمُوا مَا تَقُولُونَ وَلاَ جُنُبًا إِلا عَابِرِي سَبِيلٍ حَتَّى تَغْتَسِلُوا
[An-Nisa 4:43]

And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and his Companions.
