Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Is it permissible to use henna during menstruation?
The Shaykh : Yes, there is nothing wrong with a woman using henna while menstruating, whether on her head, hands, or feet. However, it must be known that henna is part of the adornment that a woman is not permitted to display to anyone other than those to whom Allah has permitted her to display her adornment; that is, she does not display it to non-mahram men. If she wishes to go out to the market, for example, for a need, she must wear socks over her feet if she has applied henna to them. Likewise, regarding the hands, she must cover them, even though covering the hands is the prescribed practice for a woman when non-mahram men are present, whether she has applied henna to them or not. Yes.
