Question:
The questioner says: Recently, women have appeared on satellite channels calling people to Allah, issuing fatwas to the people, and teaching them the Qur'an and the rulings of the Shari'ah. Is this work considered valid, or is it contrary to what the Shari'ah brought?
Answer:
If they are qualified with knowledge, if they have knowledge that qualifies them, then it is obligatory for them, without doubt, just as it is obligatory for men to call to Allah and teach within the circle of women. They teach women within the circle of women. This is an obligation upon them, and they will be rewarded for it. As for attending the gatherings of men and mixing with men, that is not permissible. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
