The questioner : What is the ruling on making du'a' for a female teacher who performs her duty in the best possible manner and form?
The Shaykh : Making du'a' for her is good, because she is among those who do good, and making du'a' for those who do good is among the matters that are sought. However, making du'a' for her in her presence is not permissible if there is a fear of fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) from it, such that the teacher becomes proud of herself or shows favoritism to the one who made du'a' for her. So do not make du'a' for her in her presence; rather, make du'a' for her while she is not hearing it. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah reward you, O honorable Shaykh, and may Allah bless you and your knowledge, and benefit the Muslims through you.
