Designating a section of the mosque for women to attend lessons

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We have previously drawn Your Eminence’s attention to the request to designate a section of the mosque for women who wish to attend these lessons, especially since there are rooms in the mosque where bachelors reside, so it would be desirable to have a barrier there.

Answer:
That the eastern lamps be prepared for the women, and it does not harm them if there is a stone in them, for if there is a stone, a man can conceal himself from it when one of them passes by, just as you pray with the people in the evening, like that.
