Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This is a woman asking, and she says: Does a man, or does a husband, commit a sin if he prevents his wife from attending lessons in 'aqidah and fiqh, if she goes out with a Shari'ah-compliant hijab and is safe from fitnah (trial, discord or temptation)?
Answer:
Yes. He may prevent her if he fears for her, or if she leaves the work of the home, such as raising the children, to go to the lesson, leaving her children with the maid. It is not permissible for her to do so.
