The Prayer for Rain and the Eclipse Prayer for Women

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on the prayer for rain and the eclipse prayer for women in their homes?

Answer:
Pray with the Muslims. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered the release of young girls and menstruating women to witness the Muslims' supplication, and the menstruating women should stay away from the prayer place. So women go out with the Muslims to pray the prayer for rain and the festival prayer, and likewise children, boys, and students; they all go out and pray together.
