Menstruation in Islam

The ḥaiḍ (حيض menses) is the religious state of menstruation in Islam.[1][2] Menstruation relates to various purity related restrictions in Islamic sexual jurisprudence.[3][4]

Muslim women that are going through menstrual bleeding are exempt from fasting during the Ramadan,[5] but have to make them up after menstruation. It is not permissible for a man to have intercourse with menstruating wife. It is prohibited for a man to divorce a menstruating woman during her menses.

Women should keep proper measures of hygiene and should not perform prayer.

When the menstruating period is over, women have to perform Ghusl.
