What should a menstruating woman do when there is an eclipse?

Praise
be to Allah

Firstly:

What is
prescribed in the event of a solar or lunar eclipse is for the Muslim to
turn to Allah in prayer, remembering Him, calling upon Him and asking Him
for forgiveness, and to give charity and do other righteous deeds.

It was narrated
that Abu Mas‘ood al-Ansaari (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The
Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “The sun
and the moon are two of the signs of Allah by means of which Allah creates
fear in His slaves. They do not become eclipsed for the death of any person.
If you see anything happen to them, then pray and call upon Allah until you
are relieved of that.”

Al-Bukhaari
(1059) and Muslim (912) narrated that Abu Moosa (may Allah be pleased with
him) said: The sun was eclipsed, and the Prophet (blessings and peace of
Allah be upon him) got up in a state of anxiety, thinking that it was the
Hour. He came to the mosque and began to pray, standing, bowing and
prostrating for the longest time I ever saw him do, and he said: “These
signs that are sent do not occur for the death or birth of anyone, rather
Allah sends them to create fear in His slaves. If you see any of them, then
hasten to remember Him, call upon Him and ask Him for forgiveness.”

Ibn Battaal
said: The words “If you see any of them [these signs], then hasten to
remember Him, call upon Him and ask Him for forgiveness” were narrated by
al-Bukhaari in Baab adh-Dhikr fi’l-Kusoof (Remembering Allah at the
time of an eclipse). He said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of
Allah be upon him) instructed us to call upon Allah when they (eclipses)
occur, and to seek forgiveness, as he also instructed us to pray.

This indicates
that it is not narrated from them (the Sahaabah) that when an eclipse
occurred, they were encouraged to pray only; rather they were encouraged to
do deeds by means of which they could draw close to Allah, such as praying,
calling upon Allah (du‘aa’), seeking His forgiveness (istighfaar) and so on.

End quote from
Sharh Saheeh al-Bukhaari by Ibn Battaal (3/32)

In this regard a
woman is like a man, because of the general meaning of the texts. So in her
case the same is prescribed for her as is prescribed for a man, namely
praying, calling upon Allah, seeking His forgiveness, giving charity, and so
on.

If a woman has
any impediment that prevents her from praying, then in this situation she
can still do other things: calling upon Allah, giving charity, seeking
Allah’s forgiveness, remembering Him, and other deeds by means of which she
may draw close to Allah.
