Reading the Quran during Menstruation

I bought a book by Dr. Abu Ameenah Bilal Philips a very long time ago called
"Islamic Rules On Menstruation and Post-Natal Bleeding"

As I was going through the book, I came across the section that discussed the reading of the Quran by women in their periods.

I was quite suprised to see that he Quoted Ibrahim an-Nakhai as saying that there was no evidence to suggest that a women in her menses cant recite the Quran. AllahuAlum.

In a detailed explantion to this, there was a huge footnote. In this he says that even Imam Bukhari was of this opinion, again Allahu Alum if this was the case. Any way, he then goes on to show a Hadith in which reading the Quran was not allowed, and then claims that this Hadith is weak. He goes on and on. SubhanAllah.
