Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Your Eminence the Shaykh, we are a group of women who are forming an association. Is this association permissible? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
There is a distinction regarding an association. If it is for cooperation in good, such as an association for charity where you collect money to give in charity, or an association to help those who memorize the Qur'an, or to help the sick, or other forms of good, then there is nothing wrong with it. The association is looked into; if it is an association that collects money to help orphans and the poor, to teach the memorization of the Qur'an, or other forms of good, then there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
