SHE IS ALLOWED TO ENJOY FOREPLAY AND CARESSING FROM HER HUSBAND

Even when a woman is on her monthly period, she is allowed to enjoy foreplay and caressing from her husband, and it is known that men take pleasure in this. Allāh's Messenger (ﷺ) allowed men to seek pleasure from their wives (on their monthly periods) through kissing and touching, Anas Ibn Mālik said,

"When a woman among the Jews menstruated, the men did not dine with her, nor did they live with them in their houses. The Companions asked the Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) about that. So, he (ﷺ) said to them, 'You can do everything [with each other] except sexual intercourse."*
