Summary
The Perlis State Fatwa Committee ruled that a menstruating woman is permitted to enter a mosque. The condition is that she is able to prevent herself from soiling the mosque. Since the matter is disputed among scholars, the fatwa states that it is better for her to avoid entering the mosque when there is no need to do so.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Wanita dalam keadaan haid dibolehkan masuk ke dalam masjid dengan syarat dia dapat menjaga diri dari mencemarkan masjid. Walau bagaimanapun jika tiada sebarang keperluan, maka mengelakkan diri dari memasuki masjid adalah lebih afdal atas khilaf yang berlaku di kalangan ulama.
