The ruling on using pills to prevent menstruation in Ramadan and other times
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
This is a letter we received from the sender, who used the initials (A. A.) for her name, from Riyadh. She says: What is the ruling on a woman taking pills to prevent the flow of menstrual blood in the month of Ramadan so that she can complete her fast? Please inform us, may Allah reward you.
Answer: There is no harm in her taking pills to prevent menstruation so that she can pray with the people and fast with the people, provided that it is safe and does not harm her, after consulting a doctor and with the approval of her husband, so that she does not harm herself and so that she does not disobey her husband. If it is done after consultation and with caution regarding safety from harm, then there is nothing wrong with it. The same applies to the days of Hajj. Yes.
The presenter: May Allah reward you.
