Is it a flaw in the methodology of learning for a woman to listen to lessons via the radio if she is unable to attend the mosque?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, a questioner says: A woman is unable to attend the lessons of the shaykhs in the mosques because she has small children. She listens to the lessons via the radio of the Noble Qur'an and via tapes. It was said to her that there is a flaw in her methodology because she does not attend the lessons of the shaykhs in the mosque. Is this correct?

Answer:
Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He)
So fear Allah as much as you are ableفَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ
[At-Taghabun 64:16]
If you are unable to attend the lessons in the mosque, there is nothing wrong with listening to them on the radio or on tapes so that you may benefit from them. And is it said that this is wrong? Yes.
