The Ruling on Wearing the Niqab in France and the Reward for Performing the Rawatib Prayers
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, the father. This is a question from France. The questioner says: The state of France wants to issue a law prohibiting the wearing of the niqab. If that happens, what is obligatory for the oppressed women who are unable to emigrate?
The Shaykh:
This is one of the harms of residing in the lands of disbelief: that they impose their systems, their disbelief, and their order upon you. This is what necessitates emigration if a person is able to emigrate. She must fear Allah, adhere to the hijab and niqab, and not submit to the rulings of the disbelievers as much as possible. Yes.
The questioner:
The questioner: What is the reward associated with performing the rawatib prayers?
The Shaykh:
Also, do not go out to markets and gatherings. Stay away from these matters that force her to remove the hijab; stay away from them as much as she can. Yes.
