The questioner : Is it permissible for a menstruating woman to attend beneficial lectures for learning in the mosque if she is safe from contamination and performs wudu to alleviate the state of impurity, knowing that the duration of menstruation varies from woman to woman and she may miss out on much good?
The Shaykh : It is not permissible for a woman to remain in the mosque while she is menstruating, whether to listen to a lesson or for any other reason. In our time, there is no need to remain in the mosque, for the loudspeakers, praise be to Allah, convey the speaker's words to a great distance. So let her sit at the door of the mosque and listen to whatever she wishes. As for entering the mosque and remaining in it, this is forbidden in its current state.
