Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Some of our brothers built a separate mosque exclusively for women, distinct from the main congregation mosque by a street or more, with some houses in between. They pray behind the imam of the main mosque via a microphone connection to the women’s mosque. Is this permissible?
The Shaykh : As we said, this is acceptable if there is a dire necessity, meaning that it is not possible to expand the mosque.
The questioner : No, it is spacious, but he built a separate mosque.
The Shaykh : No, this is a mistake. This is not valid. It must be connected to the original, main mosque.
