[quote]with due respect ibrahim i hv to mention something i just came across as i read through al nisa one more time; and also as we are reading it in our stislam local circle.
looking at the context of the verse you hv mentioned, it was adviced not to go near the salah(the prayer itself, meaning not to pray) when drunk(initial instructions re: alcohol before it was  completely  prohibited) and in that regard it was mentioned not to enter (the masjid) except that you just passed by; 
i think its quite obvious that the purpose is not to pray in that condition whether at home or masjid; and same stance given there for a junbi(a state after coitus).

wen we talk about a woman to be encouraged to go to the masjid for eid or fri salah even if menstruating, to listen to the khutbah, as the beloved sws encouraged them, the purpose obviously is not to pray the salah/namaz, rather is just to listen to the words of wisdom and obviously as it comes along with it she can hv the benefit of intermingling with the community socially, utilizing that time for dhikr etc.
so i'm afraid the contaxt of this verse does not seem at all right to be used as an order for a woman not to go to the mosque in this state.
