Teaching a woman the testimony of faith for entering Islam
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The third question of Fatwa No. ( 21653 )
Q3: If the one who wants to enter Islam is a woman, is it permissible for the imam to teach her the testimony of faith, or is it obligatory for a woman like her to do so?
A3: Teaching a woman the testimony of faith for entering Islam is valid from anyone, whether a man or a woman, but a woman is more appropriate so that she can also learn what she needs with ease and simplicity. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
