Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a woman who is excused by the Shari'ah to recite the dhikr, the morning and evening dhikr? And is it permissible for her to seek forgiveness, glorify Allah, say the talbiyah, and remember Allah frequently? May Allah reward you with good. Also, is it permissible to read the booklets that contain some verses from the Qur'an? This is for a woman who is excused due to menstruation or post-natal bleeding.

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with her reading the supplications and dhikr, or reading from books. What is forbidden for her is reading the Qur'an or touching the mushaf, as long as she is in a state of menstruation or post-natal bleeding. So, reading supplications, dhikr, saying the talbiyah, glorifying Allah, praising Allah, and the dhikr that corresponds to the Qur'an without intending to recite it, but rather intending to remember Allah, yes. All of that is permissible, and praise be to Allah. May Allah reward you with good.
