She feels bad during her period
Question I feel sometimes that I am not clean inside. I feel few days before my period starts that my blood is boiling inside my veins, and I feel like I want to cut myself off. About two years ago I stopped the bad habit of backbiting, since I stopped this sin I feel much…
Question
Praise be to Allah.
Firstly:
We praise Allaah for guiding you to an understanding of the
seriousness of backbiting and its evil, and for hastening to give it up. We
ask Him to help you and make you steadfast in that.
Secondly:
It is well known that many women become depressed and anxious
during their menses, especially at the beginning, and that a woman’s
intellectual state is not normal during menses. Most women feel pain in
their backs or lower abdomen, and for some of them the pain may be more than
they can bear, so they use medicines and painkillers. See question no.

Undoubtedly what you are feeling is one of the effects of
menstruation but all you have to do is be patient and seek reward, for
nothing befalls a Muslim, not even anxiety and grief, but Allaah will
expiate some of his sins thereby.
You should keep yourself busy with work, study etc that will
benefit you, for free time makes worries worse.
There is nothing wrong with a menstruating woman reading
Qur’aan without touching the Mus-haf, and that will distract her and make it
easier for her.
And Allaah knows best.
