Question
Praise be to Allah.
There is
nothing wrong with a woman whose period has ended putting on the clothes
that she was wearing whilst menstruating, so long as they are still clean
and pure and none of the menstrual blood got on them.
But if some of
the menstrual blood got onto the clothes, then the place where it is must be
washed before praying in them. A woman came to the Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him) and said: Menstrual blood may get onto the
clothes of any one of us; what should she do with it? He said: “She should
scratch it, then rub it with water, then wash it, then pray in it.” Narrated
by al-Bukhaari (227) and Muslim (291).
So the
Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)
enjoined purifying the clothes before praying in them.
And Allaah
knows best.
