Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a woman menstruates while in the state of ihram (the consecrated state of pilgrimage) for Hajj (the major pilgrimage) and wants to return to her country, is she allowed to perform sa'y and delay the tawaf al-ifadhah (the circumambulation of farewell) until after her purity?
Answer:
It is not valid except after the tawaf. This is the way of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). It is not mentioned that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) performed sa'y before performing tawaf. Only those who issued this ruling did so, and they did not agree on this. Therefore, sa'y is not valid except after the tawaf. Yes.
