Is it true that a woman in the state of menses cannot have a valid nikah?

I heard from someone that nikah can not happen(not valid) if a woman is in state of menses…is it true?

Answer:

(Fatwa: 900/900/M=1432)

It is not right. It is not a condition for nikah to be valid that the woman is clean from menstruating period.

Allah (Subhana Wa Ta’ala) knows Best

This answer was collected from the official ifta website of Darul Uloom Deoband in India.
