Can a menstruating woman seek out the Night of Decree?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Can a menstruating woman seek out the Night of Decree?

The Shaykh : If she seeks it out, she will not benefit, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Whoever spends the night of Lailat Al-Qadr in prayer out of faith and in the hope of reward من قام ليلة القدر إيماناً واحتساباً
Sunan an-Nasa'i 2193Sahih (Darussalam)
, and a menstruating woman does not stand in prayer on the Night of Decree, because she is prevented from prayer. However, I hope that if she supplicates to her Lord (Mighty and Majestic) on that night and clings to His bounty and mercy, I hope she will not be disappointed.
