The answer

What you did, feigning prayer while menstruating, is an unlawful act. There is no sin in menstruation; it is something Allah has decreed for the daughters of Adam. Scholars have explicitly stated the prohibition of feigning prayer without intention. Seek Allah’s forgiveness, and do not repeat such an act.
