The reward of a woman prevented from obedience by a valid excuse

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This sister, the questioner, Umm Abdullah, says: As for a woman when the legal excuse comes to her and she wants to perform the acts of worship but she is unable to, does she receive reward for her intention, O Shaykh?

Answer:
If she desires good and desires to perform obedience but is unable to do so, then she is rewarded for her intention. If the excuse prevents her from the good she desires, then the reward of the intention is recorded for her, because in the hadith, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said in one of the battles:
Indeed, there are people in Madinah who, whenever you travel a distance or cross a valley, they are with you; their excuse has prevented them.إن في المدينة قوما ما سرتم مسيرا ولا قطعتم واديا إلا وهم معكم حبسهم العذر
, yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh!
