وَ یَسْــٴَـلُوْنَكَ عَنِ الْمَحِیْضِؕ-قُلْ هُوَ اَذًىۙ-فَاعْتَزِلُوا النِّسَآءَ فِی الْمَحِیْضِۙ-وَ لَا تَقْرَبُوْهُنَّ حَتّٰى یَطْهُرْنَۚ-فَاِذَا تَطَهَّرْنَ فَاْتُوْهُنَّ مِنْ حَیْثُ اَمَرَكُمُ اللّٰهُؕ-اِنَّ اللّٰهَ یُحِبُّ التَّوَّابِیْنَ وَ یُحِبُّ الْمُتَطَهِّرِیْنَ(222)

English translation of Kanz-ul-Irfan

And they ask you about menstruation. Say, “It is impurity, so stay away from women during the days of menstruation, and do not go near them until they are clean.[1] When they are completely pure ˹from menses˺ go to them ˹for physical relations˺ as Allah has commanded you. Indeed, Allah loves those who repent sincerely, and those who are exceedingly pure.

Commentary

[1]

It is forbidden to have intercourse with women during their menses; conversing and eating with them, and even partaking of what they have left in their plates is permissible.
