Abstract

Menstruation is the periodic discharge of blood and mucosal tissue from the uterus and vagina. Islam places fair ethics in association with menstruating women, in contrast to the ethics introduced by the pre-Islamic (jahiliyyah) and Christian society. This article provides a comparative analysis of the ethics of association with menstruating women from the view of Islam and medicine. The data was collected through primary and secondary sources. The paper concludes that, adherence to the Islamic ethics of sexual intercourse during menstruation has a significant association with the scientific discovery on the risk factor resulting from an intercourse during menstruation.
