The ruling on a menstruating woman and a woman with post-natal bleeding entering the Sa'i area and the Tawaf area

Question:
May Allah reward you. One of the sisters says: Can a woman with post-natal bleeding or a menstruating woman enter the Sa'i area and the Tawaf area?

Answer:
No. The Sa'i area, yes, there is nothing wrong with it because it is not a mosque; it is not part of the mosque. As for the Tawaf area, no, because it is part of the Sacred Mosque. A woman with post-natal bleeding or a menstruating woman does not enter the Sacred Mosque or any other mosque for the purpose of sitting in it or staying in it. However, merely passing through one door and exiting through the other, or going in to take something from the mosque while she is menstruating or has post-natal bleeding and then leaving, there is nothing wrong with that. Yes.
