During menstruation, prayer and fasting are lifted. Yet this does not mean stepping away from spiritual life. These days can be seen as an opportunity to continue worship in different forms and to keep the heart alive.
What Can Be Done These Days
Even though the ritual prayer is not performed while bleeding, many acts still preserve the spiritual bond:
- Keeping up the morning and evening remembrances and tasbih
- Making supplication and sending salawat through the day
- Following the Quran from memory or by listening, and reading translation and commentary
- Learning, and setting aside time to read a beneficial book
These acts prevent the habit from breaking and make returning to worship after purity much easier.
The Value of Keeping the Routine
Worship largely stands on habit. Dropping the spiritual routine entirely during menstruation can make it harder to start again after purity. Keeping the bond alive with small but consistent acts protects peace of mind throughout the cycle.
How Halinisa Helps
While tracking your cycles, Halinisa shows clearly which day you are on. So you know which acts to turn to on these days and can sustain your spiritual routine without interruption.
