Women cannot enter Masjid on Menses right? Is there no valid Ikhtilaaf?

There are two views: one prohibits a menstruating woman from the mosque, while another permits entry if contamination is prevented—with the latter being suggested for certain needs today. menstruation, mosque entry, scholarly disagreement, purity, women, fiqh rulings https://www.youtube.com/shorts/cOEi3a4Ue5k
So there are two views on this. Let me explain both. The first view is the view of the majority of scholars, which is that if a female is on her menstrual cycle, she should not enter the masjid. The second view is that, no, the prohibition, the reason for the prohibition is if there's going to be any contamination, let's say, of the masjid. And if that's not going to be the case, then she could enter the masjid. So inshallah, nowadays, given that if there's a particular reason, let's say you're going for a fifth class or let's say it's a funeral or let's say there's something happening particular on the masjid, then you could take that second view and go with that view inshallah.
