The Ruling on a Person in a State of Impurity Remaining in the Mosque

Question:
The issue is: does the state of impurity of a person who is not in a state of ritual purity disappear? Does he remain in the mosque?

Answer:
If the person who is not in a state of ritual purity has the intention of performing wudu, that has no meaning. The one who has a minor state of ritual impurity and is prevented from leaving may stand in the mosque. As for the one who has a major state of ritual impurity, such as a menstruating woman, a woman with post-natal bleeding, or one in a state of janabah, it is not permissible for him to stay in the mosque. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: and he ordered menstruating women to stay away from the place of prayer for the Eid prayer. Therefore, it is not permissible for one in a state of major ritual impurity to sit in the mosque. However, it is permissible for him to pass through or enter the mosque to retrieve a need while walking; there is no harm in that. Yes.
