Menses and Staying in the Mosque



It is prohibited for a menstruating woman to stay in a Mosque (even the 'Eed
praying area) in lieu of the Hadeeth of Umm 'Atiyya (RAA) when she heard the
Prophet (SAAW) saying: "The Unmarried young virgins and the mature girl who
stay often screened or the young unmarried virgins who often stay screened and
the menstruating women should come out and participate in the good deeds as
well as the religious gathering of the faithful believers..." He (SAAW) ended by
saying: "but the menstruating women should keep away from the Musalla
(praying place)."
Agreed upon Hadeeth. In Saheeh Al-Bukhari (Arabic- English), V. 1, P. 192, Hadeeth # 321.
