Ghusl and Menstruation: What Women Need to Know About Ritual Purity

Should a Woman Perform Ghusl When Menstruation Starts After Janabah?

Question: If a woman becomes junub (in a state of major ritual impurity) and does not perform ghusl (ritual bath) at night, and then her menstruation starts, should she perform ghusl despite the fear that it might stop her menstruation and cause discomfort?

Answer: If a woman is in a state of janabah (major ritual impurity) and her menstruation starts, she may perform ghusl if she wishes. However, if there is a concern that performing ghusl might cause issues, she can delay it. Performing ghusl is not obligatory in this situation. When she gets the opportunity and performs ghusl, the impurity of janabah will be removed, and she will be allowed to recite the Quran.
