Question:
Can a woman recites Durood Shareef during periods? What other Tasbihat she can do? Because that was the time a woman need protection from outer sources, as her body becomes more sensitive.. What can be done to protect oneself? I ve seen in section Quran and menses but didnt find satisfactory answer. Please guide accordingly.
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
Darood Shareef and all du`as and dhikr can be recited during menses even if those du`as come from the Qur’an, as long as one is not literally reciting the Qur’an. Even the latter is permitted for women who are hafiz of Qur’an or on a regular study routine according to Imam Malik (Allah be well-pleased with him).
