Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Honorable Shaykh, peace be upon you, and Allah’s mercy and blessings.
The Shaykh : Peace, and the mercy and blessings of Allah, be upon you.
The questioner : What is the ruling on using the injection that stops the monthly period, as well as the pills that stop the monthly period, knowing that it may only stop for a few hours?
The Shaykh : It seems the questioner wants this during the days of Hajj. We say that there is nothing wrong with it out of necessity, but on the condition that this is done after the doctor’s approval. If the doctor says there is no problem with using this injection and these pills, then there is no problem with using them for the sake of necessity,
The questioner : even if it is only for a few hours.
The Shaykh : Yes, whether it is for hours or for days.
The Shaykh : Peace, and the mercy and blessings of Allah, be upon you.
