Question:
May Allah reward you. In her questions, she says: Honorable Shaykh, if a woman menstruates during the day in Ramadan, is it obligatory for her to abstain from food and drink, acting on the saying of Allah the Exalted:[Al-Baqarah 2:187], or is it obligatory for her not to abstain?
Answer:
If a fasting woman menstruates during the day, she breaks her fast and does not abstain; because this abstention is not prescribed. Rather, the opposite is the case: if she was menstruating and then became pure during the day in Ramadan, she abstains for the rest of the day out of respect for the time. Yes.
