The Ruling on Women Dancing at Celebrations
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, who identified herself as Umm Maryam, says: Honorable Shaykh, I am asking about the ruling on women dancing among themselves at celebrations, a light dance that is not immodest. Is this permissible? On the occasion of a wedding.
Answer:
There is nothing wrong with women dancing among themselves, provided they are covered from the men, and on the condition that the dance is modest, not the immodest dance that is customary now among professional dancers who exaggerate in their dancing, and whose adornments are exposed, or who wear clothes made for dancing that are open, revealing part of their body and their 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered). This is forbidden dancing. Yes.
