Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: Is it possible for a menstruating woman or a woman in a state of major ritual impurity to recite the Qur'an from memory without touching the Qur'an?

Answer:
She does not recite the Qur'an while menstruating except in two cases in which the scholars have issued rulings: the case of an exam that she would miss, and the case of fearing the loss of what she has memorized, so she repeats it in order to retain it and not forget it. Yes. And other than that, she does not recite the Qur'an until she performs the full ritual bath, purifying herself and taking the bath. Yes.
