She began menstruating on the Day of 'Arafah

Question

If a woman begins menstruating on the Day of ‘Arafah, what should she do?

Answer

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad  sallallaahu  `alayhi  wa  sallam ( may  Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.

Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen  may  Allaah  have  mercy  upon  him said: "If a woman begins menstruating on the Day of ‘Arafah, she should complete her Hajj and do all the things that people do, but she should not perform Tawaaf until she has attained purity."

Allaah Knows best.
