If menstruation begins after the midday prayer on a day in Ramadan while she is fasting

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a woman’s menstruation begins after the midday prayer in Ramadan while she is fasting, does she complete her fast and then make it up, or does she break the fast?

Answer:
No, if she experiences menstruation, she has broken her fast; she does not complete the fast. Her fast is broken by the menstruation, and she has become one who has broken her fast. Yes. The one who completes the fast is the traveler if he arrives, the young boy if he reaches puberty during the day, and the menstruating woman if she becomes pure. If she becomes pure, she abstains for the rest of the day. Whoever’s excuse that permitted him to break his fast during the day is removed, he abstains for the rest of the day. Yes.
