The answer

It is not permissible to delay prayer until the last part of its time when one expects an impediment to performing it, such as menstruation. This applies if the occurrence of the impediment is highly probable. One who is highly probable to experience menstruation must hasten to pray. As for missed prayers, many scholars say they must be made up immediately. However, according to those who say that making up prayers can be done at leisure, delaying is not forbidden when menstruation is expected.
