Question
In Cape Town girls continue learning and reciting the Qur'aan Shareef whilst in the state of haidh. It is claimed that since this is permissible in the Maaliki Math-hab, we too can adopt it. Is this correct?
Answer
It is not permissible for females to even recite the Qur'aan Shareef from memory during the state of haidh. The practice in Cape Town is haraam. We are not Maalikis. Trifling with the Deen to suit whimsical fancies is a grave sin. It does not follow from the scope of the Maaliki Math-hab that it is permissible for others to act in conflict with their own Math-hab. In terms of the Maaliki Mathhab it is permissible to eat the meat of bush rats, and according to the Shaafi' Math-hab, hyhena and fox meat is permissible. Now, they may ask the MJC to issue a halaal certificate for rat and fox meat.
