A woman’s sa’y between the two hills
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, how do you respond to those who say that it is permissible for a woman to perform sa’y between the two hills because the first person to establish this sunnah (recommended practice) was Hajar (peace be upon her)?
Answer:
He says to him: "As for the scholars, they did not say this." And he, in his manner, says to him: "Yes, the woman is weak and cannot climb. The woman is weak, and Hajar did it out of necessity; her reason was necessity. So the woman is weak, and she is not required to perform sa'y, meaning running between the two hills. She is not required to do that, nor is she required to run in the Safa area, nor is she required to climb Safa and Marwah because she is weak."
