Menstruation in Islam

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Menstruation in Islam is subject to religious laws and customs. In Islam, menstruating women are considered to be in a state of ritual impurity and must observe certain restrictions, such as not participating in prayer or fasting, until the end of their period. Islamic scholars have varying interpretations of the specific requirements for women during menstruation.
