What is entailed for one who performed Hajj and began her menstrual period before the Tawaf Al-Ifadah, so she performed the Tawaf and Sa'i while menstruating?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

A menstruating woman (Haa'id) or a woman in post-natal bleeding (Nifas) is not permitted to pray or fast. The Farewell Tawaf is not valid while she is menstruating. However, the Sa'i can be performed earlier. She must repeat the Tawaf because it is one of the pillars of Hajj, and her husband is not permitted to have intercourse with her until she performs the Tawaf.
