Question

What is the mas’alah regarding a woman who experiences haidh during the days of hajj?

Answer

She will fulfil all the rituals of hajj besides entering the Musjid-ul-Haraam for tawaaf. After her haidh terminates, she will complete her tawaaf.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

“1. In the state of haidh, it is not permissible for a woman to enter the musjid. Hence, it is not permissible for a woman to make tawaaf of the Ka’bah Shareef in Musjidul Haraam in the state of haidh.”
