Waiting at a Musalla while in menses?
Question
Q. is it Ok for a Woman to Wait at a Jamaat Khana for Females For her Lift Whilst she is in a State of Menses?
Answer
She can wait in a Jamaat Khana/Musalla in the state of menstruation. A Jamaat Khana is not the same as a Musjid and purity is not a precondition for entering, unlike a Musjid where it is compulsory to be clean.
And Allah Knows Best
