The questioner : I say: I am a girl who attends wedding parties to meet friends and relatives whom we do not see except at these parties, and I assure you, O honorable Shaykh, that I am a girl who holds firmly to my religion and the Sunnah of my Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).
The Shaykh : May Allah send prayers and peace upon him.
The questioner : And I want to ask you: is this lawful or forbidden?
The Shaykh : We say that this is lawful and there is nothing wrong with it, though staying at home is better and more excellent. However, a woman is not prohibited from going out in such a situation, on the condition that she goes out without perfume, without displaying her adornment, and without being uncovered or exposing her face. Also, on the condition that the party she attends does not include any evil, mixing with men, or similar forbidden matters. If it does include such things, then it is not permissible for her to go. Yes.
