What is the ruling on Hajj if menstruation occurs intermittently during its completion, stops, and then a small amount appears after returning home?
A menstruating woman performs all the rituals of Hajj except for circumambulating the Kaaba (), because purity from menstruation and postnatal bleeding is a condition for its validity. This is based on the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) statement to Aisha: "Do what a pilgrim does, except that you do not circumambulate the House until you become pure." So, if you performed Tawaf during intermittent bleeding, and you took a ritual bath from it and completed it while you were pure, then the blood that comes down after its completion does not invalidate it. You should perform a ritual bath every time the bleeding stops and do what a pure woman does.
