Hajj Series: Menses during Hajj
Question
What should a woman do if she experiences her Haidh (menses) during Hajj?
Answer
A woman who experiences her menses during Hajj will continue with all the actions of Hajj besides Tawaaf-e-Ziyaarat and Tawaaf-e-Widaa.
Tawaaf-e-Ziyaarat is obligatory (Fard) and is done after the pelting on the 10th of Zul-Hijjah. A woman in menses will wait until her menses ends and thereafter perform Tawaaf-e-Ziyaarat even if it is performed after the 12th of Zul-Hijjah.
Tawaaf Ziyaarah must be performed before she departs from Makkah.
Tawaaf-e-Widaa is compulsory (Waajib) and must be performed by the non-residents of Makkah Mukarramah before returning home.
However, a woman in the state of menses is exempt from performing this Tawaaf if she is in the state of menses at the time of her departure from Makkah. (Muallimul-Hujjaaj)
And Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
