The Ruling on Women Dancing at Wedding Feasts and School Parties
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on women dancing at a wedding feast?
The Shaykh:
There is nothing wrong with that known, decent, ordinary dancing. It is not the artistic dancing of the immoral, the prostitutes, or the Western women. It is not the decent dancing that was known among Muslims, where women would sway like this among themselves, and nothing of the 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered) is exposed. Yes.
The questioner:
In girls' schools, if there is a party at the school?
The Shaykh:
No, no, this is not permissible. This is not permissible. Yes.
