Is it prescribed for a menstruating woman to perform wudu before sleeping?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The phone rang.
The questioner : Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings and His forgiveness
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good.
The questioner : Does a menstruating woman perform wudu for sleep, just as others do?
The Shaykh : Others? How do you mean others?
The questioner : Those who do not have an excuse.
The Shaykh : Your question is not clear. The phone is not working except for your phone.
The questioner : Is wudu prescribed for her?
The Shaykh : Why?
The questioner : For sleep, for sleep.
The Shaykh : We do not know of any text that obligates her to do so.
The questioner : But it is prescribed for her.
The Shaykh : If it were prescribed for her, I would not have told you that we do not know of a text that obligates her. If you know something, inform us of it.
The questioner : My intention is, may Allah reward you with good and do you well.
The Shaykh : And you.
The questioner : I mean that the text came from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding the prescription of wudu before sleeping, and that a person should spend the night in a state of purity.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : So I asked one of the women, and she said she is menstruating. Is my wudu for sleep prescribed for me, just as it is prescribed for the rest of the people in the hadith, or does my wudu have no effect, neither advancing nor delaying, because she is menstruating?
The Shaykh : What did you hear from me? What did I answer you with?
The questioner : Fine, I said that nothing has come that prevents what has come in a text.
The Shaykh : No, I did not say prevents. I said obligates. I said: There is nothing that obligates her to do so.
The questioner : Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings and His forgiveness
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : May Allah reward you with good.
