Marble area outside the Haram Shareef

Q:

1-Is the marble area outside the Masjid of Haram Sharif included in the Masjid?

2-Is it permissible for a female who is in her mensuration period, to go on the marble area outside the Masjid of Haram Sharif?

3- A female who is in her mensuration period,how does she go to do Saee without entering the Masjid of Haram Sharif? Where does she go from?

A:

1. According to our knowledge it is outside the musjid.

2. The area that is outside the musjid does not have the same law as the musjid, for it is not part of the musjid in any way.

3. She may enter the sa`ee area from the doors that lead directly to it.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
