Question
Assalam-o-alaikum! I wanted to know if it is allowed for a woman to take full bath during the 7 days of periods??i have heard from some people that as it results in more napaki in the bathroom so one shouldn't take bath during periods, on the other hand some people say that one should keep clean even during those days by taking full bath. I need your answer to clarify these two statements.Thank you!
Answer
There is no such thing as you can't take bath during these days. You are allowed to bath as frequently as required.
Imagine what would happen if a woman is not allowed to bath for upto 10 days? Obviously, such unhygienic conditions cannot be tolerated in a religion that maintains 'half of faith lies in cleanliness.'
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
