Maryam Amir – Can women recite Quran on their period

Is there is a question about recitation and menstruation. So I

want to write down for you very quickly what the scholars have

said. If you are in Mensis and you want to recite,

there are, like most issues of filth, scholars who differ on the

evidences. There are some scholars, and it's the widespread

opinion. The wide tread opinion means the majority of the Menachem

follow that it is not permissible for a woman to recite

demonstration. This is the Hanafis, the shadhires, the

hanbalis. Now this is a genuine position of the methad, which

means scholars within the meth may hold a different position, like

some scholars hold a different position than the general

methadone. However, they say what you can do are verses that are

johab. So for example, when you're sitting in the car, what do you

say when you sit in the

car? So that's a Joab, but it's also a verse in the Quran. So

because, as a person of Quran, if your intention is I want to recite

the Quran, the scholars of these men I have seen, that's not

permissible. But if your intention is going to make the card, the

scholars of this position take it as permissible. Does that make

sense? Then there's the other scholars of the other position. So

the other position, there are a number of scholars, but the

general, I'll just give you some names that maybe you've heard of,

buchare Ibn Taymiyyah,

Ibn hiltayum,

Adani

Ibn has

what are your evidences? So those who say that it's not permissible,

there's no verse in the Quran that denote anything related to this

issue. So there's no verse. They base it on Hadith. So the first

and main evidence, which is a sound narration, is that I surely

love how I mentioned the Prophet SAW would recite the Quran in her

lap and then get in her lap when she was in Mensis.

So scholars like in the W letter eight, for example, the way that

he explains this is unless it was not normal for her to typically

recite her ad, and she's explaining the situation as a

exception to the bull. It doesn't make sense for her to have

mentioned it in the first place. Does that make sense? So they are

facing their understanding of it not being permissible on an

inference that I should have a lot more on that would have not made

that statement in the first place, had it not been a big deal. Does

that make sense? Number two, by the way, this is the sweetest of

class on this issue, because you could easily actually do that. So

please feel free to study it in much more detail, just giving you

a summary. The second proof is that there are a number of

different narrations that talk about a person who is in janada

and a woman who is in Mensis, not presiding the Quran dear car.

These are Hadith, and they are statements of righteous people or

varying companions. However, there is discrepancy on the authenticity

of basically all of them, Ibn Taymiyyah, ibn Hasan, both of them

saying there is no authentic narration that actually addresses

in it this way. But scholars who form the majority say there are so

many like weaker narrations that together they they they form the

ruling. Does that make sense? Okay. The third thing is DS. DS

means that scholars look at one circumstance and then they say,

Okay, if in this circumstance, this is the rule, then in a

similar circumstance, this is the same rule. Does that make sense?

So they say that if a person is in the state of Geneva. The only

reason I'm not explaining is because of the age group here. So

I see a lot of younger people. So please look it up if you are not

sure what I mean. But Geneva has rulings of no recitation according

to the majority. So they say, if a person is in Geneva and you can't

recite, it's a major ritual impurity, which means you need to

do what the abusive which is a shower. So they say, if major

ritual impurity is recitation,

is Geneva, or you can't recite, then a woman in Mensis is in a

state of major ritual recitation, and therefore she cannot recite.

However, he says, that's not a fair comparison, because you can

just what you chose to get into that circumstance. And too, you

can take a shower and get out, but for a woman completely out of your

control, it can last up to 15 days if you do not follow the honey

Bett. And what do you do for 15 every single month? For half of

the month, you're not going to recite the Quran, but if you're a

pretend student, but if you're trying to teach your children,

what? If you're a forehead teacher, there's all these

circumstances where that makes up for that so difficult to access.

And so the scholars who are in the and these are the main, the main

evidences for the position that says it's not permissible, the

scholars would say it is permissible. They base it on one

that the Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam would always recite the

Quran. Would encourage recitation of the Quran. And then the.

Quran said,

So recite is easy for

you, so that means it's a command to recite in general, and you

would not go against a command unless you have explicit evidence

otherwise. And because they say the evidence of the majority is

not explicit enough, according to this opinion, the default is you

recite at all times. Does that make sense? The second proof that

they use is that Aisha on how it went for Hajj and when she went

for Hajj, what happened?

Yeah, she got her period, and she was crying, and the Prophet

sallallahu, alayhi wa sallam went to her, and he was comforting her,

and he never told the only thing he mentioned is not to do the

wealth, but he's Allah for the young Salman said, to do

everything else. So the scholars of this position say he didn't

say, don't recite the Quran. And had your daughter recite Quran,

you're right behind divorce. You can recite the Quran. So had it

not been permissible, how this Allah? AJ, would have said that

it's prohibited. Now sign it up, because a lot of women take this

narration and think, when you're in hedge, you don't have to go off

so very quickly, I'm going to and once I can tell you the ruling of

what to do with your events. Is a hedge basically, imitania has a

ruling. He set the head that he met up. But he and his ruling in

the circumstance, because in his time, there was a caravan who

would go for hedge altogether. You know, you went from Syria, you're

from Lebanon, going from Yemen. You go to all these places. You go

to the hedge caravan. It would take months to get there, and then

you're there. You have a caravan. You go back in his time period.

There were the ruler would give money to ensure there were hedge

stations to meet the Hajj. So let's say there's a caravan here.

They leave from Mecca, and then they get to here. There's a group

here. They refill their water, they get food. They keep going.

Okay, then they go here, another Pearland the state is paying for

these caravans in imitate mis time, the state changed and

withdrew that money, so these caravans went away. What happened

now? They have to go from Mecca for months and months on end to

wherever they need to go. They ended to realize there's not going

to be groups of people all over the place to protect them, which

means what they can raise the caravans. So they started coming,

and they were killing people and stealing all of their property. So

women, who used to stay in Mecca for a long time so that they can

finish their period and then finish everything they need to do,

no longer able to do that without threatening their life or their

property. And so Ibn taymiyya said none of the scholars before me had

the circumstance, because people used to just stay until everyone

was done, and then they would go. So Ibn taymiyya position is that

if a woman goes for Hajj, she knows she's not going to finish

while she is there. Let's say you are going to last for seven days,

running for three days you're not, you're not going to finish. So

what do you do? You actually go ahead and you make Hajj, or you

make Umrah. Let me just say Umrah, because Hajj is a little bit

different with ruling. Let me just say Umrah, because most of us have

the circumstance in Umrah. So if you know you're going to vote for

Umrah. So what do you do? You make Umrah exactly the same, but you

don't pray the two of my friends after the coma,

I got a message from my sister in Mecca, like two weeks ago And

subhanAllah, I've been so overwhelmed, I don't check my

Instagram messages like almost never know. I just happened to

open Instagram to see this message. She said, I'm in Mecca. I

wasn't from I got my period. I know I'm no longer allowed to make

Amra. So I got out of baham, and I'm wondering, can I just make

Joab close to

the to the masjid, just being so angry you're not out of the harm,

you're in the ham who taught her, in all of us

how that we don't know what to do. So the point is, even take him. He

says, to just make Umrah, as if you would just make ummah. Just

want to do the two of us of the Salah. However, this is imitating

his opinion. He also says there's no sacrifice to give. The Hanafis

have the same opinion. But the Hanafi say you need to give a

sacrifice, because they can, excuse me, it can pull off. It's

not permissible going on your period, and therefore you get a

sacrifice to make up for having a co op. Now, if you're going to be

in Mecca and you're going to finish, just wait and finish, and

then they don't know these are for circumstances which you wouldn't

the reason I wanted to tell you that is because when I explained

this heavy I actually had someone say that they're going for a Mecca

to Mecca, and they had attended a lecture where you mentioned and

then they know they don't need to make Co Op when they're in their

mixes. And I don't want accusation here. So please, if you're going

Inshallah, seek clarification advice from the Shah or Shaf

before you go inshallah. But just so there's no so there's no one in

a message to me and says I heard from your lecture comes to a spin

koala. So that's imitating his position. Now, back to the

recitation issue. Back to the recitation issue. This position is

the public solution. Didn't tell I should only allow my iPad not to

make not to recite the red therefore it's permissible to

recycle, right? Does that difference make sense? Yes, okay,

that is for recite.

Nation that's different from touching the Mustaf touching the

must have. The difference of opinion on that issue is derived

from an eye of the Quran, and he the same Hadith that I had, but

that's not a topic we're covering right now. I just wanted to let me

ask followers look at one piece of evidence, and then they have so

many different understandings. So when we look at women's voices and

Quran, we see women who don't recite while they're on them.

Period, for centuries, we've had women who don't recite because

they follow the majority of the the neck of the man and in

trouble, and they are rewarded for every second they don't recite.

And even if the angels are not commanded to look for women who

don't recite, typically, they would be reciting if they could.

So if nobody mentions, then the Prophet saw my son

talks about the person who is sick or traveling. And when they are

sick, when they are traveling, the rewards of what they used to do

continue. And so inshaAllah, you still get the reward if you

typically recite, and then you stop for 10 to 15 days inshaAllah,

you're still being rewarded, because the only reason you're

doing it that's out of your love for Allah. Whether you follow this

opinion or without opinion, you're doing it for the sake of Allah.

You are doing it to get closer to the Quran. Sometimes, keeping us

ourselves away from worship is a test, because we want to be there.

We want to be doing it. And sometimes in that test is a form

of testi, a form of purification that brings us closer to Allah in

a different way. So for those who follow that opinion, may Allah

raise your wings. And for those who don't, and who use that time

to continue to reset, may Allah raise your rights. Our history is

filled with women of the Quran Hari.
