The menstruating woman assumes Ihram without praying

Question :

How does the menstruating woman pray the two Rakhs of Thram?

Answer:

The menstruating woman does not pray two Rak'ahs of Ihram. Rather, she assumes Ihram without praying. The two Rak'ahs of Ihram is Sunnah according to the majority of the scholars and some of the people of knowledge do not consider it Mustahab (desirable), as there is nothing reported specifically concerning it. However, the majority of scholars consider it desirable due to what is reported in some of the Hadiths that the Prophet said:
"Allah, the Mighty and Majestic said, 'Pray in this blessed valley and say: An Umrah within a Hajj."

This means the valley of Al-'Aqeeq during the Farewell Hajj. It has been related from the Companions that he (the Prophet) prayed, then he assumed Ihram. Therefore, the majority of scholars considered it desirable that the Ihram be after prayer. It can either be an obligatory prayer or a voluntary (Nafl) prayer. The person performs Wudhu' and prays two Rak'ahs. The menstruating woman and the woman with postnatal bleeding are not from the people who pray. Thus, they assume Ihram without praying and it is not legislated for them to make up for these two Rak'ahs.
