Can a woman read Zikr (or Wazeefa) which contains Allah's name during periods? (like Subhan-Allah)

Answer

It is permissible for a woman to make Dhikr and recite any Du'aa during her monthly cycle. If the Dhikr and Du'aa is from the Qur'aan, e.g. Surah Faatiha, etc. she may recite them with the intention of making Dhikr or Du' aa.
