YOGYAKARTA - Haid or menstruation is a monthly cycle felt by each woman as a sign of a healthy reproductive system. In Islam, menstruation has special provisions in carrying out worship. Women who are menstruating are prohibited from praying, fasting, and some other worship that requires sacred conditions.
Even so, women who are menstruating can always increase their prayers, remembrance, and other worship. This article will regulate prayers when menstruating and how a Muslim can always get closer to Allah throughout menstruation.
Understanding Haid In Islam
In Islam, menstruation is seen as normal and natural. This is part of the fitrah of women who have been determined by Allah. The Prophet Muhammad SAW also stated that menstruation is a condition felt by all women, and there are no flaws or shortcomings in women who experience it. Therefore, when a woman is menstruating, she does not need to feel guilty or is low because of her inability to perform certain worships such as prayer and fasting.
Even though women who are menstruating are not allowed to carry out these prayers, they always have the opportunity to do more and more other deeds of worship. One way is by increasing the number of prayers during menstruation, remembrance, and giving distance to Allah. This can be an efficient method to always maintain spirituality and get closer to Allah.
No special prayers are set in the Koran or Hadith for women who are menstruating. However, during menstruation, Muslims can increase their prayers for protection, forgiveness, and ask for blessings and goodness. Here are some prayers that can be offered as prayers during menstruation:
1. Request Health and Ease
During menstruation, women's bodies often experience changes, including discomfort such as cramps, headaches, or changing moods. For that, prayers for health and convenience throughout menstruation are highly recommended. This prayer can be spoken in any language, but specifically, women can read the following prayer:
Allahumma ini as aluhatan wa shabran wa afiyatan fi hadzihilhayaati.
Meaning: O Allah, I ask You for health, patience, and safety in your opinion.
2. Asking for forgiveness and Rahmat
The following prayers during menstruation can be used as a practice to ask for forgiveness from Allah. Each Muslim is advised to increase the wife and wife all the time of menstruation. Istighfar prayers are a request for forgiveness that can be read at any time, such as:
Astaghfirullahal adzim, alladzi la Selama illa huwal hayyul qayyum wa atubu lalih.
Meaning: I ask forgiveness from Allah Almighty, not God is not only He, the Almighty, who always takes care of His creatures, and I repent to Him.
3. Expand Remembrance and Gratitude
During menstruation, a Muslim is also advised to do a lot of remembrance and be grateful. Remembrance is a mild but very meaningful form of worship, and can be done at any time without having to be in a holy condition. Here's the remembrance that can be read:
Subhanallah, walhamdulillah, wa laa laa mila illallah, wallahu akbar.
Meaning: 'Glory to Allah, All Praise to Allah, There is no God but Allah, Allah is great.'
By reading this remembrance, a Muslim can feel calm and soul, so that the menstrual period can be passed more comfortably and meaningfully.
