Reading the Qur'an and Dhikr for a Woman in Menstruation

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Your Eminence the Shaykh Salih, may Allah preserve you and bless you. Umm 'Abdullah al-Nakha'i from Yemen has a number of questions. In her first question she says: Is it permissible for a woman in menstruation to read the daily dhikr or the Noble Qur'an from a mobile phone?

The Shaykh:
As long as she is menstruating, she may read the supplications and dhikr, but she does not read the Qur'an while she is menstruating. Yes.

The questioner:
Neither from memory nor from the mushaf.

The Shaykh:
Yes, except if she fears forgetting it. If she fears forgetting what she has memorized of the Qur'an, then she reads it to retain it. Yes.

The questioner:
Even if she is a teacher and required to teach the female students.

The Shaykh:
The teacher has a system in place for her. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
