Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;font-size: 14pt\">Most scholars are of the opinion that one who is physically unclean (because of sex, or menstruation, or post childbirth, etc.) should not physically touch the Glorious Qur&#8217;an. This is based on a hadith from Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), in which he stated that nothing kept the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) from touching the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.qurantranslations.net\/\">Qur&#8217;an<\/a> save being sexually impure.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;font-size: 14pt\">Also all the scholars see that it is permissible for a woman, who is experiencing her normal or post childbirth menstruation, to recite the Qur&#8217;an from memory, or make supplications, or praise and glorify her Lord Most High, Most Exalted; but it would be best if she would abstain from physically touching the Glorious Qur&#8217;an with her bare hands.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;font-size: 14pt\">In case a woman experiencing her menstruation happens to listen to the Glorious Qur&#8217;an and comes across a verse of <em>Sujud at-tilawah<\/em>, she should make the required prostration as normal as it is not part of prayer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;font-size: 14pt\">For more information in this regard, watch this interesting talk with Dr. Muhammad Salah.<\/span><br \/>\n<span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"width: 0px;overflow: hidden;line-height: 0\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/p>\n<p>_____________________________________<\/p>\n<p><em>Source: Huda Youtube Channel.<\/em><a href='https:\/\/prayerinislam.com\/what-is-the-ruling-of-making-sujud-ash-shukr-during-menstruation\/' target='_blank'>Soucre Link<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What Is The Ruling of Making Sujud Ash-Shukr or sujud tilawah (recital prostration) During Menstruation?
