Question:
Regarding female circumcision, Your Eminence the Shaykh.
Answer:
It is recommended; because circumcision has benefits for the woman and her husband. However, if a woman who knows how to do this is available, because not everyone knows how to perform it, then if a woman who is skilled in this, or a man who is skilled in this, is available when the woman is young, there is no harm. It is recommended. If it is not available, it is left.
