Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Is it permissible for a menstruating woman to enter the Sacred Mosque, not for prayer or tawaf, but only to sit?

Answer:
It is not permissible for a menstruating woman to sit in the mosque, whether the Sacred Mosque or any other mosque. A menstruating woman does not linger in the mosque. However, if she passes through to get something and then leaves, there is no harm. But sitting is not allowed; she does not sit in the Sacred Mosque or any other mosque. Yes.
