What is the ruling for a woman if she starts menstruating before the miqat?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Eminence the Shaykh, the questioner asks: What should a woman do if her monthly period comes to her while she is before the discussion? Does she enter the state of ihram or not?

Answer:
If the period comes, she enters the state of ihram from the miqat, and there is no harm. Aishah, the wife of the Prophet (may Allah be pleased with her), entered the state of ihram from the miqat while she was in post-natal bleeding, but she did not perform tawaf until she became pure. She stayed in her house in her apartment. When she became pure, she dressed and went and performed tawaf and sa'y, and praise be to Allah. As for entering the state of ihram, there is no harm; she enters ihram while menstruating or in post-natal bleeding, and there is no blame on her. She recites the talbiyah with the people, remembering Allah, reciting the talbiyah. But she does not pray and does not perform tawaf until she becomes pure. When she becomes pure, she performs tawaf and prays, and praise be to Allah. Yes.
