Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah reward you. Is the hadith of the black slave woman cited as evidence for the permissibility of a menstruating woman remaining in the mosque... does something happen to her?
The Shaykh : The answer to this, which we mentioned previously, is that we told you: when texts are ambiguous and there are texts that are not ambiguous, what is obligatory? It is to return to the ones that are not ambiguous, because the decisive and the ambiguous are similar, and it is obligatory to refer the ambiguous texts to the decisive ones. If the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited menstruating women from entering the mosques, then that is explicit and clear. This slave woman is the first to say that she menstruates; that is one point. Second, on the assumption that she menstruates, who says that if she menstruates she remains in the mosque? We have a clear, authentic text:, yes. What?
The questioner : Is it possible...
The Shaykh : Broken?
The questioner : ...
The Shaykh : ...Yes, it is permissible for a group according to... if there is no flute.
The mu'adhdhin: Allah is the Greatest.
The Shaykh : Allah is the Greatest.

That the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) ordered menstruating women to keep away from the place of the Eid prayer.
