Fatwa #3627 August 2000Pakistan

When a woman is on her menses is it true she can not enter the Mosque or is it that she can't touch the prayer mat only?

Answer

Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said, 'I do not make the Musjid
permissible for a female in menses and an impure person.'

And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
