Therefore, reciting the Quran and touching the (the physical copy of the Quran) are permissible with it. The woman must make up for any prayers or fasts she missed if she abandoned them under the assumption that the bleeding was menstruation, and she should promptly seek knowledge regarding the religious rulings.
