Reciting Quran during menses

Question:

Salaam alaikum and thank you for your response, Sister Hajjah. I am wondering if I can recite my daily awrad by mouth during this time or if I have to do it silently in the heart. I am asking because the awrad contains Surah Ikhlas, Falaq and Nas – is it okay to recite these by mouth during menstruation or must it be by heart only?

Answer:

wa `alaykum salam,

Anything you like to recite in menses, whether Quran or awrad, darood or adhkar is permissible. What is not accepted is to pray, fast and hold the Holy Qur’an and to read directly from it. But reciting from what you know by heart is no problem. Do not sit without recitation for 7-8 days as that is not beneficial.
