Chapter 65 Verse 4

---|---|
Original text | Such of your women as have passed the age of monthly courses, for them the prescribed period, if ye have any doubts, is three months, and for those who have no courses (it is the same) |
Problem | This verse says one should wait three months before having sex with a female in order to ensure she is not already pregnant. It says this waiting period is for those females who no longer have menstrual cycles and those who do not have them. This suggests both menopausal women and young girls who have not yet started their periods.Over time this has been interpreted to mean that it is permissible to have sex with wives too young to have started their menstrual cycles. |
Solution | Remove and for those who have no courses, or additionally specify that this condition is for wives who are experiencing Amenorrhoea. |
