Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam that a man questioned the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying, "What is permitted me from my wife when she is menstruating?" The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Let her wrap her waist-wrapper round herself tightly, and then what is above that is your concern."
