Question

Is it permissible for a woman in Haidh to learn and memorize Ahadith?

Answer

There is no problem in touching the Kitaabs of Ahadith or memorizing Ahadith during Haidh. However, the menstruating woman should not recite the verses of the Quraan or touch the verses of the Quraan (recorded in the Hadith) while reciting the Hadith.
