Can a Muslim woman use tampons?
Question
I am aware that a woman and her sexual parts must remain pure for her husband only. I have heard that wearing a tampon during menstruation is a form of unlawful penetration, is this true? I thank you in advance.
Answer
It is permissible for females to use tampons during her menses. It will not be regarded as unlawful penetration.

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
