Is it permissible for a woman to recite poetry in the presence of men?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : I have detailed the ruling on singing, but if the singing or poetry is lawful according to the Shari'ah...
The Shaykh : And if she is reciting poetry, there is no doubt that this recitation, even if the words of the poetry are permissible as we explained an hour or more ago, as long as the one reciting the poetry is a woman, the woman's voice in reciting poetry has a special tone that may cause men to be tempted by it, so it is not permissible to listen to it.
