Does the menstruating woman recite the Qur'an?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Well, what about other matters?
The questioner : Regarding the ablution, if one of you wakes up, meaning to its end, so I ask, what is the benefit for the menstruating woman regarding this hadith? If the menstruating woman gets up and remembers Allah, the knot is undone, but what about regarding the ablution and the prayer?
The Shaykh : This is not a problem, my brother. First, this is one of our arguments against those who forbid the menstruating woman from reciting the Qur'an. In fact, this is what you referred to, which confirms that when a woman lies down to sleep, she must seek protection for herself and surround herself with some of the noble verses, especially those established in the Sunnah, such as reciting, for example, the Verse of the Throne, reciting Surat al-Baqarah, Surat al-Muzzammil, and the like of what is established that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) used to recite before he slept, whether before he lay down or after he lay down. Among the most important of these surahs are the two protective surahs. So, in my opinion, if this menstruating woman performs such recitations, that will help her so that Satan does not urinate in her ear, because she falls under the generality of the saying of Allah (Blessed and Exalted is He):[Al-Baqarah 2:286] As long as she is not legally able to engage in prayer, she must engage in what is permissible for her to read, from the surahs or verses we mentioned. Anything else?
The questioner : May Allah reward you, Shaykh.
The Shaykh : May Allah bless you. There is no doubt that if we attend the university, the university for youth, as you mentioned.
Another questioner : And this is a gain.
The Shaykh : They will ask us questions, and we...
Another questioner : The questions need to be resolved.
The Shaykh : Yes, and we are between two things: either we are frank or we are tactful. And we did not withdraw into this seclusion that you see except to escape from being tactful. And if we are frank, there is no doubt that frankness is premature. Therefore, you must prepare the ground, if Allah wills.
Another questioner : And at that time, the call will be considered acceptable by the permission of Allah.
The Shaykh : If Allah wills.
Another questioner : As for the call to the home, we consider it acceptable from now on.
The Shaykh : If Allah wills.
Another questioner: May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : We say to our brothers who visit us, I am one of the people who, if invited, using the Syrian expression, we do not find any joking.
Another questioner : No, there is no joking. May Allah reward you with good and may Allah prolong your life.
The Shaykh : May Allah bless you.
The questioner : Regarding the ablution, if one of you wakes up, meaning
If one of you spends the night, Satan ties three knots on the nape of his head
