Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : A woman started menstruating before the miqat and did not enter the state of ihram. We came here and she entered the state of ihram from here when she became pure.
The Shaykh : Did this woman intend the 'Umrah from the time she arrived?
The questioner : She did not intend the 'Umrah until she reached the miqat.
The Shaykh : All right. The obligatory thing, my brothers, is that when a woman comes to the miqat intending the 'Umrah.
The questioner : Intending.
The Shaykh : You enter the state of ihram even if she is menstruating.
The questioner : She did not enter the state of ihram. She entered the state of ihram from here.
The Shaykh : All right. My brother, I told you, then you paused. It is obligatory for her to enter the state of ihram from the miqat, even if she is menstruating, and she remains in her state of ihram until she becomes pure. When she becomes pure, she performs the full ritual bath and completes her 'Umrah. If she did not enter the state of ihram and came to Makkah and became pure in Makkah, then it is obligatory for her to go out to the miqat, to the miqat she passed earlier, and enter the state of ihram from there. If she entered the state of ihram from al-Tan'im, there is no sin on her if she was ignorant. But she owes a fidyah, meaning a sheep that she slaughters in Makkah and distributes to the poor. And she completes her 'Umrah, if Allah wills.
