The Ruling on a Menstruating Woman Listening to the Qur'an

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Among her questions, Your Eminence the Shaykh, she says: Is it permissible for me to listen to the Qur'an while I am menstruating?

Answer:
Yes, she may listen while she is menstruating or in post-natal bleeding, and she may also read; because menstruation and post-natal bleeding last a long time, they are not like the state of major ritual impurity. As for the one in a state of major ritual impurity, he does not read until he performs the full ritual bath. As for the menstruating woman and the woman in post-natal bleeding, the correct view is that they may read from memory, or from the mushaf behind a barrier, such as gloves when necessary. Otherwise, she reads from memory, and there is no blame on her according to the correct view. As for the hadith
The menstruating woman does not read anything from the Qur'anلا تقرأ الحائض شيئًا من القرآن
Sunan al-Bayhaqi 1:386
, it is a weak hadith.
