The ruling on the Woman in menses travelling to her family before the Tawaf-Ifadhah. And is her husband allowed to have sexual relations with her?
Question:
If the woman gets her menses before she performs Tawaful-Ifadhah, is she allowed to travel to her family. And then return after that for the Tawaful-Ifadhah? Or is she required to wait until she becomes pure and then perform the Tawaf?
Answer:
If the woman gets her menses before Tawaful-Ifadhah, her Mahram waits for her until she becomes pure. If that is not possible, she may travel and when she becomes pure, she returns to complete her Hajj. In this situation her husband should not come near her (for sex ). If she is not able to return, like if she lives in distant land, then she may try to restrain the bleeding and perform Tawaf due to necessity.
