The ruling on a blind man teaching girls
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks about a blind man teaching girls: does the evidence support this? Is it permissible?
Answer:
This was only the case at the beginning, when girls' schools were first opened and there were not enough female teachers, so they needed a blind man to teach. But now, praise be to Allah, there are many educated women and female teachers who are seeking work, so there is no need for a blind man to teach girls. Yes.
