Can a woman whose fast is broken because of menstruation in Ramadaan eat?

When women who are
menstruating or bleeding following childbirth become pure during the day in
Ramadaan (i.e., the bleeding stops), and when a traveller arrives at his
destination, and when a sick person who stopped fasting recovers, they do
not gain anything by refraining from eating during the day. They broke their
fast for a reason, and making them refrain from eating is a matter which
requires a shar’i text as proof. 

Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may
Allaah have mercy on him) was asked:  

If a woman who is
menstruating or bleeding following childbirth becomes pure during the day in
Ramadaan (i.e., the bleeding stops), does she have to refrain from eating
and drinking? 

He replied: 

If a woman who is
menstruating or bleeding following childbirth becomes pure during the day in
Ramadaan, she does not have to refrain from eating and drinking, and she may
eat and drink, because refraining from doing so will not benefit her in any
way, as she has to make up that day anyway. This is the view of Maalik and
al-Shaafa’i, and is one of the two views narrated from Imam Ahmad. It was
narrated that Ibn Mas’ood (may Allaah be pleased with him) said: “Whoever
eats at the beginning of the day, let him eat at the end,” i.e., if it was
permissible for him not to fast at the beginning of the day, it is
permissible for him not to fast at the end of it. End quote.

As for the guidelines on
that: 

Some of the scholars
said that those who are permitted not to fast in Ramadaan, such as the sick,
travellers and menstruating women, should not show that they are not
fasting, lest they be accused of lacking in religious commitment by those
who do not know that they are excused.  

Others are of the view that
if the reason for the excuse is obvious, there is nothing wrong with them
showing that they are not fasting, but if the reason is invisible, then they
should break their fast in secret. The second view is more correct. 

Al-Mardaawi said in
al-Insaaf (7/348): 

Al-Qaadi said: The one who
eats openly in Ramadaan is to be denounced, even if there is an excuse. It
says in al-Furoo’: It seems that it is not allowed in any case. It
was said to Ibn ‘Aqeel: Should travellers, the sick and menstruating women
be prevented from breaking their fast openly lest they be accused? He said:
If the reason is invisible, they should not be allowed to break the fast
openly, such as one who is sick with no outward signs of sickness and a
traveller on whom there is no sign of travelling.” End quote. 

And Allaah knows best.
