Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, regarding the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)Sahih Muslim 442a, why does the prohibition carry the meaning of dislike? Is it for dislike or for prohibition?
Answer:
It leans toward dislike, specifically a recommended dislike (tanzihi). That is why he said, "Do not prevent the women of Allah from the mosques of Allah, for their homes are better for them." So her going to the mosque is permissible, and her staying in her home is better. And his saying, "Do not prevent the women of Allah," is a prohibition of recommended dislike.
