Summary

The scholars of the four schools hold that a woman in menstruation is prohibited from performing tawaf, based on the hadith in which the Prophet told Aisyah not to circumambulate the House until she was pure. If she does it anyway, her tawaf is invalid and she must pay a dam. The Hanafi scholars hold that the tawaf is valid but she is charged one camel, as is a woman in postnatal bleeding or a person in a state of major impurity.

Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
