Can a menstruating woman fast?
Question: 7852
Answer
Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.
The fast of a menstruating woman is not valid, and it is not permissible for her to fast. When she has her period she should stop fasting, and after her period is over she can fast other days in place of the days that she missed.
