The Shaykh : The evidence for what he said is: if menstruating women are ordered to stay away from the prayer ground? No, do not say, "O Shaykh, we have not reached that point yet." If it is said that menstruating women must stay away from the prayer ground, what does that indicate? That it was made a mosque, because we do not know of a prayer ground where people pray from which menstruating women are prohibited, except for mosques.
As for the fact that the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) do not pray, this requires you to prove to me that every one of the Companions who attend the mosque does not pray. General statements are of no use. Then, perhaps they attend during the prohibited times, and they do not consider that those with valid excuses are permitted to pray during the prohibited times. These are specific cases. Even if you were asked to prove that half of those who come to the mosque do not pray, you would not be able to do so. These general statements are of no use. Yes.
