Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it said that a woman’s voice is an awrah (part of the body that must be covered)?
Answer:
Yes, indeed. And for that reason, she was commanded to clap instead of making the sound of tasbeeh in prayer, because her voice is a fitnah (trial, discord or temptation). Yes.
