Is it permissible for the Muslim woman to learn all the sciences currently present in universities and institutes?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Likewise, what they call the science of economics, and the science of astronomy, for example, and the like. She must learn what is obligatory for women, not what is obligatory for men. This is because every science, in the case of men, is an individual obligation, as the interests of the Muslim community are not realized except by the community’s comprehensive grasp of the totality of the sciences it needs. As for women, it is specific to what we mentioned earlier, which spares women from having to expose themselves before men.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh: And you too
