The answer

Scholars have differed on the ruling regarding a menstruating woman reciting the Quran and touching the Mus'haf.

Some scholars, such as Malik and Ibn Taymiyyah, permit a menstruating woman to recite the Quran.

Ibn Taymiyyah and the meticulous scholars of the Maliki school chose to permit a menstruating woman to touch the Mus'haf when there is a need, and he mentioned that it is more cautious to touch it with an intermediary, such as a glove.
