Women's Rituals

This topic gathers the questions about worship that turn on a woman's body and its cycle. They are practical, and often urgent: a fast already begun, a prayer time passing, a journey already booked. The pages below cover menstruation, worship during menstruation, postnatal bleeding, pregnancy and worship, and women in the mosque. Every answer here is a sourced summary of a fatwa. Start with menstruation if you are unsure where your question belongs.
