Tahara and Sajdah Due to Recitation of the Qur'an?

Assalamu alaikum sisters,

I have a small question.  If a girl has her period and she is listening to Qur'an
recitation,  and the recitor makes sajdah due to an ayah of sajdah in the Qur'an, is she able to
do sajdah too? Or is it still not allowed because she has her period? I know the rulkings
for cleanliness in this case is different than that of prayer, but I'm confused about
this scenario.

May Allah reward you for your help.

Found this, inshaAllah pray it helps :)


Question :


Is it permissible for a menstruating woman to do Sajdat al-Tilaawah and Sajdat al-Shukr? If it is not permissible, is it permissible for her just to say Subhaan Allaah if she hears an aayah in which a sajdah is prescribed?

Answer :

Praise be to Allaah.

Firstly: in the cases where she is permitted to recite Qur’aan, she is also permitted to do Sajdat al-Tilaawah, if she happens to recite or hear a verse where the sajdah is prescribed. The correct view is that it is permissible for her to recite from memory, not from the Mus-haf, so on this basis the sajdah is prescribed for her, because it is not salaah (prayer), rather it is an act of submission to Allaah and worship, like other kinds of dhikr.

Secondly: the correct view is that it is not a condition for sajdat al-shukr and sajdat al-tilaawah on the part of one who is reciting or listening, that the person should be in a state of tahaarah (ritual purity), because they do not come under the rulings of salaah.

And Allaah is the source of strength. May Allaah bless our Prophet Muhammad and his family and companions.
