Prohibition of Preventing Women from Mosques
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. In the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), “Do not prevent the women of Allah from the mosques of Allah,” is the prohibition here for prohibition? And is it permissible for him to prevent her?
Answer:
The prohibition is not for prohibition; because the prayer of the woman is not obligatory. If attendance had been obligatory upon her, then preventing her would have been for prohibition. But if her attendance is for the sake of preference, then preventing her is not for prohibition. Yes.
