I posted a question and I told my mother about this and she said it is haram (not the martial arts, a girl problem) and I told her why and she said that it makes your..(girl thing) wider. I'm kinda shy to ask this and a muslim man can reply if he wants I guess or a non muslim can reply. I'm ganna start Martial Arts (karate then ill go to kung fu) anyways..This is a question about periods. I'm used to wearing a pad and know I have to use a tampon but it is haram for a muslim women to do that cause it wides your girl thing. I can't wear a pad and doing sports cause it will spill out and I'm wearing a white outfit! I wish I never had my period or boobs. I just want to have fun and I have a dream to fulfill for my brother and if someone tells me just to give up then here is an answer for you...NO!.. Can someone tell me another way to do sports without a tampon?
Or some tips? Please help!

It is not haram really. A muslim lady (a married women) can wear tampons all she wants but it is not good for a unmuslim lady. I kno muslim rules for girls are stricked but I have to live with it. If i convert my religion then I might be killed or beaten to death. it sucks. and the reason why is because when your married and have sex then it will be more problems cause the guy will think your not a virgin and stuff.

Try getting some real information from someone who isn't muslim. Muslims will slant the information they give you to benefit their false ideas that women shouldn't do some things. THey are wrong. Go to the karate place and speak to one of the women instructors or a woman black belt to know what is true and not true. I can tell you now, however, that you have been hearing lies from your family about how things work.
P.S. there used to be some muslim women in my dojo and they did workout behind a curtain at times because of some of the muslim rules about being seen by men (couldn't lift their legs or something???). So just other women went behind the curtain. It was a distraction in class, but you kinda got used to it, and it was only once per week or less I think.

Use a tampon and enjoy the martial arts training.
You have one life to live however you may like. Are you gonna study something great and become sufficient in self defense (especially if your a Wing Chun fighter, the style itself was invented by a Buddhist nun to fend off robbers and rapists on her way back to the temple). Or are you gonna let one tampon keep you from doing this until you die the inevitable death?
I'm not saying Heaven or Hell dont exists as I can't say for sure, no one can, there isnt proof yet. But one things for certain, this life sure is real and we only have one of it. Make your choice.
PS. Gannoway is a moron. Don't listen to him. Apparently evolution hasn't reached someone's gene pool yet.

There is a very easy solution to this.
Explain to your teacher that it is a religious issue concerning your menses and that you would not attend. Assure that you are serious and affirm your devotion to your religion.
Assure that it would not interfere with your training.
If he is a true and wise teacher, he will accept. If he or she does not, find a place that would.
