The Ruling on the Prayer for Rain for Female Students in Schools
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This sister, Honorable Shaykh, asks: Is it prescribed for female students in their schools to perform the prayer for rain, with one of them leading them and then delivering the sermon to them?
Answer:
This is something that has happened recently. Otherwise, the Muslims used to go out to the prayer ground, men and women, including those who are menstruating and young girls. The menstruating women would stay away from the prayer ground and listen to the Muslims' supplication. As for performing it in schools, among women and students, I do not know of any basis for this. However, if we attend with the men at the prayer ground, that is better. Yes.
