Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The second question of Fatwa No. ( 16746 )
Q2: What are the books that a woman must read to develop her thought and culture?
A2: The Muslim woman and the Muslim man must, above all else, concern themselves with the Noble Qur'an, reciting it, reflecting upon it, and acting upon it, and with what is accessible of the established Sunnah of the Messenger
(peace and blessings be upon him), such as *Umdat al-Hadith* by the Shaykh 'Abd al-Ghani al-Maqdisi, then the books of the people of the Sunnah and the community, and especially the books of creed, such as *The Three Fundamental Principles*, *The Four Bases*, *The Book of Tawhid*, and *Kashf al-Shubuhat* by the Shaykh Muhammad ibn 'Abd al-Wahhab (may Allah have mercy on him), and *Fath al-Majid* by his grandson the Shaykh 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Hasan, and the books that deal specifically with the rulings concerning women, so that she may benefit from them and learn the rulings of her religion. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
