Summary
A menstruating woman should not treat her period as a break from obedience, since many acts remain open to her for earning Ramadan rewards. These include listening to Quran recitation, giving charity, making supplication and remembrance, providing food for those breaking their fast, and seeking knowledge including personal obligatory knowledge. Listening to the Quran on electronic devices must be done in places permitted by Islamic law and not in prohibited places such as the toilet. This article is an explanatory piece and not the official position of the Selangor Mufti.
